Ordo (2009)

About this game

Ordo is a game in which players try to get to their opponent's home row but while crossing the board they must always keep their pieces connected. Pieces can move singly in orthogonal or diagonal directions, but also as a group in certain situations, which is called an "ordo move". With a set of Ordo, you can play Ordo X, too.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 2.9/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
