Editorial Review
It doesn't take too long before things pile up in this Parents' Choice Gold Award winner. Two players take turns slipping light or dark wooden polygons into a clear, upright game board. The object is to force the opponent to drop a piece that sticks out above the board--no fair trying to push a piece back down! But it isn't always easy to place the thin, lightweight tiles successfully in the frame. As the various squares, triangles, and odd-shaped playing pieces drop upon each other in the nearly 7-inch frame, they're prone to slipping into unexpected positions. It all adds to the surprising fun and challenge of the game. At the end of each round, the losing piece is removed from the losing player's set; the first person to forfeit a turn due to a lack of pieces loses the match. --Liane Thomas

Product Description
Easy to learn and play, Batik moves very quickly. Several rounds are completed for a full match. Place the geometric pieces inside the clear playing board. Players take turns trying to keep all their pieces inside the board--not as easy as the board gets crowded. So, pick your pieces carefully. This is a game for two players and very popular with young teens. The BATIK board is a vertical, transparent picture frame. Both visual and planning skills are put into play as irregular-shaped pieces are dropped into a slot. They may land upside, downside, or on their side. If the piece catches on another one and sticks out above the board's edge, the player loses the game. Made with quality wooden pieces.
