Pyramid

Contents: 24 pyramids, 12 black and 12 gold

Goal of the game: The winner is the first player to place 5 pyramids of their color in a row, either horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.

The first player places one of his pyramids on the table. The second player places one of his pyramids in such a way that it is touching one of the four edges or four corners of Player A’s pyramid. Play continues in this manner, each player following the other by placing one pyramid in turn.

If after all 24 pyramids are played and neither player successfully places 5 pyramids in a row then play continues but players remove and replace one of their already placed pyramids on their turn. Play continues until one player has placed 5 pyramids in a row.

This game was released by Hasbo in Germany and the US.
