Abalone

Abalone is a classic two-player abstract strategy board game that challenges players to outmaneuver their opponent on a hexagonal board. Each player controls a set of marbles and takes turns pushing their own and their opponent’s marbles to gain a positional advantage. The objective is to be the first to push six of the opponent’s marbles off the board, requiring careful planning, spatial awareness, and tactical foresight. Simple to learn but deeply strategic, Abalone encourages critical thinking and anticipatory moves, making it suitable for players of all ages. Its elegant design, compact setup, and engaging gameplay make it perfect for family game nights, casual play, or competitive strategy sessions.
