Turning ○○○ into 3D?! A Board Game with Genius Ideas [Gift Ideas]

Do you all like board games?

I love them!✨

Even now, I enjoy playing board games with colleagues and friends with a drink in hand.😊

This time,

You're turning that into 3D?!

I'll introduce a board game with such an eccentric idea that you can't help but say that.

It has a huge impact, so it's perfect for a gift too.✨

That board game is,

3D Othello

.

Who would think to make Othello 3D?

The developer's idea is so amazing that I respect them.

This was released in late December 2021 and won the Japan Toy Award 2022.

It's an amazing product.

I'd like to explain it right away!

Basic Rules

It's the same as regular Othello!
Using white and black pieces,
pieces sandwiched between the other color become that color.

Preparation

Before playing,
place the mountains on the board.

Placing mountains?

I know what you're thinking.

This 3D Othello has mountains on the board.

You can place these mountains anywhere you like.

Splitting the mountains is also okay.

Once you've placed the board pieces where you like,
place the starting pieces.

It's not that you can place them anywhere,
you must place them at the same mountain height.

NG Example

The white piece is on a mountain one level higher.

OK Example

Four pieces are placed at the same mountain height.

As long as the height is the same,
it's fine even at the very bottom.

Detailed Rules

I will explain the conditions for flipping
the Othello pieces placed on the mountains.

In this game, you can also place
Othello pieces on the sides of the mountains.

In this image example,
what happens if you place a black piece on the far right?
What would happen?

Surprisingly,
you can turn them all black.

Now, how about this pattern?

They all become black.

If you don't spin it around,
you won't know where to flip them, right? 😆

However,
that's not all.

There are also diagonals.

The board has red and blue lines on it.

Where these lines connect,
you can flip the Othello pieces.

For example, in the case of the blue line.

In the case of the red line.

However, if it's broken, it's a no-go.

Also, branching into two lines is not allowed.

It looks like a lot of fun, doesn't it? 😆

If you play while drinking,
you might miss something and lose, which can happen 🤭

If you forget to flip a piece,
I think it's fun to make it the responsibility of the person who placed it,
as it shows the difference in skill!

Ah! I missed that one too!

I think it will be exciting like that ✨

The price is approximately 4,300 yen.

If you are struggling with gift ideas,
I would be happy if you could make use of this 😊
