Quarto Classic board game

Quarto Classic is a two-player strategy board game in which you build a line of four pieces that share at least one common attribute: height, colour, shape or fill. The challenge is that you choose which piece your opponent must place on the board, so every decision matters and a steady poker face helps.

The rules are simple and quick to learn, making the game suitable for players aged 6 and up. The set includes one game board, 16 pieces made from solid hardwood and the rulebook. A typical game lasts around 20 minutes.

Quarto develops logical, tactical and combinatorial thinking. It has won several honours, including the 1993 Mensa Select award and the 2001 Vouden Peli Adult Game of the Year.
