5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best board games ever created
This is possibly my favorite game. It is a game of dexturity and strategy. It is like a more physical version of GO, with a jedi/zen-ness to it.

I bring it to a board game night once in a while, and it instantly becomes the center of attention. There is just something about hovering disks that is insanely cool.

There is also an exciting riskiness in...

1.0 out of 5 stars Not much fun - odd setup and play
I found this game to be very strange to setup and the game play is really very difficult to get the hang of. My sons and I love playing games and are generally willing to take the time to learn any new game - but this one was just too much work right out of the box.

This is possibly my favorite game. It is a game of dexturity and strategy. It is like a more physical version of GO, with a jedi/zen-ness to it.

I bring it to a board game night once in a while, and it instantly becomes the center of attention. There is just something about hovering disks that is insanely cool.

There is also an exciting riskiness in the game. You can try for more challenging moves, and they help you control the board better, but increase the odds of random things happening which can change the direction of the game.

Each game is unique and memorable, and major comebacks are common. All it takes is one bad placement.

This is also a great game for kids. You have to be calm, patient, and focused. Also, you need to think deeply about the interactions of all the pieces, but the game is light enough that it doesn't take much teaching of rules.

Bought this for my son and my future son in law. It was played with often the first few days and continues to be a favorite. My father who is in his 70's loved this game. It's kind of tricky at first to get the magnets to hover. The rule book is totally useless..you need to look the rules up online. You can print them up from online also. The online rulebook is much clearer. Fun game, the games are short, so you don't have to take hours. But it is played over and over again. Never just a 15 min. game. More like a couple of hours over and over again. Recommend it strongly!

I have just purchased this game and played a few times. The included rules are worthless. Just go to their website and download the strategy guide and play a few times.

The game is lots of fun and requires dexterity and strategy. the concept is very clever and engaging.

Not something I would play all the time, but a good filler.

It takes some time to get the knack of it.

A slight bump of the table can ruin the play.

Not a game I would recommend.
