Collisro

The object of the game is to be the player who successfully places the most tiles on the board. Your tile must be placed next to another tile of the same color. While placing your tiles you not only want to cover the most ground so you gain points, but you’ll want to block the others from placing their tiles.

Callisto: The Game’s brilliant design, including a board that changes surface according to the number of players present, is among one of the features that make this game so unique. While the goal is simple–to be the first player to place all of his/her tiles onto the board-the shapes of the tiles and additional columns make winning quite tricky. The game plays out like a competitive puzzle, and finesse and cunning are required to triumph.

Callisto, from University Games, is a seriously satisfying and undeniably simple game to learn, but it requires strategic skills and a little luck to master. The object of the game is to be the player who successfully places the most tiles on the board. Your tile must be placed next to another tile of the same color. While placing your tiles you not only want to cover the most ground so you gain points, but you’ll want to block the others from placing their tiles. Callisto was designed by the world’s most accomplished game inventor, Reiner Knizia. He has won major international board game prizes, including the most influential, the Spiel des Jahr in Germany in 2008.
