Winning Moves Deluxe Pente Game

First introduced in the 1970's, Pente is a contemporary strategy game based upon several closely related games that have been popular in Asia for centuries. Pente (meaning "five" in Greek) combines the best elements of all three - the simplicity of Go-Moku, the flashy tactics of Ninuki-Renju, and the profound strategy of Go. All of these games can also be played the Pente board. The object of Pente is simple - a player wins by placing five stones in a row (horizontally, vertically or diagonally) or by capturing five pairs of an opponent's stones. Deluxe Pente features a quality roll-up board, just like the classic edition of the original game. Four sets of beautifully colored stones allow for 2, 3, or 4 player games, and four drawstring bags house each set of stones. Recommended for 2 to 4 players, ages 8 and up. Made in China. Package dimensions: 17 x 8.5 x 2.125 inches. Includes 1 roll-up Pente gameboard, 4 sets of colored glass stones (blue, green, clear, and amber), 4 cloth drawstring stone storage bags, illustrated instructions.
