Gigamic Quarto Classic

You choose the piece. Your opponent decides where to put it.

Each wooden piece has four features to notice: colour, height, shape and a solid or hollow top. Get four in a row sharing any one feature and you can claim the line. The trick is that your opponent supplies the piece you must place.

Another unexpected find

WHY IT CAUGHT OUR EYE

A piece that looks safe because of its colour can lose the game because all four tops are hollow.

BEFORE YOU BUY

This is the Classic edition with English instructions. Its photographed box carries a library label, and the photographed pieces have their standard unmodified shapes.

Classic wooden set with sixteen pieces. The physical board and pieces are language-independent. The smaller Quarto Mini uses a separate ASIN.
