    This is my favorite of the GIPF series of games that Ive played (although all the others are worthwhile, too). The making of a great game is one in which the rules are relatively easy to grasp, but the strategy has many levels of complexity, and that is certainly the case here. Its a very engaging game, where a single move can change the situation so drastically that thinking more than a couple moves ahead is nearly impossible. If you are a fan of abstract strategy games, I highly recommend this one.

    First game I bought in this game series. Super easy to learn but a great challenge to play. Lots of fun and keeps the mind woking!

    Purchased Yinsh because of the great reviews and it did not disappoint! Also my 11 year old granddaughter beat me the first 3 out of 4 games! It is quick to learn the rules but not so easy to win!

    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.

    My wife and I love Yinsh, as its easy to learn, but hard to master. Cliché? Well, maybe, but its true. Each player, black and white, has a set of rings and places a token in their ring on their turn, then moves the ring. Once a player gets five of their color tokens in a row, the row is removed, along with one of that players rings. The first player to remove three rings of their own color wins. Of course, the more of your rings you remove, the harder it gets to make five in a row. The game starts out simply, but soon becomes very complex, especially after removing one or two rings. It requires some real strategic thinking. Anyway, its simple to learn, and only takes thirty minutes or so. Yinch is a lot of fun, and can fit into our busy schedule. Give it a try, if you like quick abstract games, this is a good one.

    I think my family thought I was crazy to purchase Yinsh solely on the advice of strangers but now that weve played it, Ive been redeemed. Very easy to learn which made it appealing to my kids, but its really challenging to win which made it something my wife wanted to play. A good combo!

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

Sometimes you will have the impression that there is nothing but chaos on the board. You line up a few of your pieces and the next thing you notice is that they have changed color! The more pieces on the board, the more difficult it becomes to predict what will happen. But also the more opportunities you have! So do not worry: you will get your chance. Just stay alert, and you will create your own little bit of order in the chaos!
