Qubix (2011)

About this game

Qubix is a three-dimensional strategy game in which players take turns removing available blocks of 1, 2, or 3 cubes in several colors from a central pile and adding them to players' piles (to a maximum of three levels) to create specific patterns and earn points. If a player completes a pattern on another player's pile, both players earn points.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 5.
• Rules load. At 1.8/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
