My whole team at work loves to play this during our lunch breaks. I've also played it with my parents and inlaws, and 9 yr old cousins. Its fun for everyone! Blocus Trigon is a little easier for me to think about shape wise compared to Blocus classic. (triangles vs square "tetris" shaped pieces) This game works best with 2 or 3 people. With 4 people its best to play Blocus classic because its harder for everyone to gang up on one player. (which happens frequently when we play 4 player Trigon because the 4th person always ends up starting closer to one of the other 3 players)

The premise of the game is to get rid of all of your pieces. There are 21 different shapes each, made up of between 1 and 6 triangles. You MUST touch the corner of one of your existing pieces, but cannot touch the side of any of your existing pieces. Touching opponents pieces doesn't matter. People can be ruthless cutting each other off and blocking other people from putting down their pieces or expanding across the board. It makes for a lot of fun!

I rated this game as less durable just because there are a lot of little pieces and it could be very easy to lose one. Once you lose one, you have to contact the company to get a replacement, or you can't play with that color (one less player).

Hours of competitive enjoyment! Though, you could easily lose pieces and the longer weird shapes do break if you're not careful (my friend has this game, for years, and one piece was broken).

This game is a lot of fun and much better than the regular Blokus game. There are a lot more directions that you can go with this game and you don't feel stuck as fast like in the original game. Highly recommended!

This game is great as it combines the elements of chess with risk in a power grabbing mulitdirectional covering of the board. If you are looking for a great time with four people this game is for you. If you don't like card games or board games you have to try this game. It is like no other game you have tried before. But it and try it. You will not be disappointed.

I gave it lower marks in durability just because the pieces are so easily misplaced, especially with kiddos. Our 2 1/2 year old enjoys playing this with us (she requires much guidance)! It's a great gift and you should also buy one for your own family.

This a great family game. We take it to swim meet, and many kids love it. We also have the Classic Blokus (square shape), and we like it more than this Trigon verson.

GREAT game, teaches strategy and forward thinking in a way that is fun and engaging. Highly recommend this one and the original Blokus.

We'd played the normal Blokus with friends, so when I saw this come out, I had to get it. Very fun & challenging game! We enjoy playing it very much!

In this game, pieces can only touch by corners not sides. The concept in Trigon is the same as regular Blokus. This one is a little easier though because the pieces are triangular so for instance the corner can touch a flat side of another piece which in regular blokus is impossible. Great game though. My friends and I love to play it.

Takes a good time to play for four people, even if you are versed in the simple rules. Most helpful aspect is to arrange pieces in surface area descending order. Great game :)
