Rio Grande Games Yinsh

Bought this for my 11 year old granddaughter who loves board games. She has played it with her dad and says she really likes it. I’m happy.

Just played my first game, this is one of my favorites. Very complex, very abstract.

Love this game! You can really create your own strategy.

awesome two player strategy game!!

By far the most played game that we have. We have over 60 board games and this one has been the one played the most. We like to play it on teams of 2v2 just like Sequence. Epic game!

Fantastic game, which is easy to learn, but difficult to master.

Enjoy this group of games very much, have GIPF, PUNCT, DVONN, TZAAR, And our favorite, ZERTZ. I only would like to get a copy of TAMSK, great game but very hard to find.

Great game. I bought it to play with my girlfriend and she loves it. Changing strategies, complex gameplay but also easy to learn. You can teach someone in five minutes and then play for years.

I am only in the last three months getting into some of the newer Euro games. In our house, we have Dominion and Carcassone: Hunters and Gatherers and I have played Ticket to Ride a number of times at the local game store on board game night. It seemed like a good idea to branch out a bit, and I had heard about the Gipf project on that game geek website. So, I took a chance and bought it. Yes, you can play it online, but it is definitely more fun to play it live with another human. The game is an abstract strategy game like Chess or Go. Since I have never played any Gipf games before the game seemed odd at the start, but took only about 15 minutes to Grok the rules. The game plays quickly -- usually a single game lasts less than twenty minutes; so, in that sense, the game is more fun, at least in my opinion that Chess or Go. However, how one develops a strategy for this game is still a mystery to me. Because the markers get flipped or change colors every time a player jumps over them with a ring, it is very difficult to anticipate the future. Overall, I find the game to be fun and fast paced. It makes for a very nice two-player game. Bought this at a local game store -- trying to support small businesses and the local economy -- although I paid full retail plus sales tax that I would not have paid if I had bought the game from amazon.

I bought and played this game a fair amount about 16 years ago. It had gotten forgotten about until a couple weeks ago. I started playing again with a buddy and we both LOVE it. I have now played with two other friends since, and they both stated that they were going to buy the game themselves. SUPER fun and infinitely re-playable.
