KNOTZ!

An abstract strategy game for 2 players.
This "cut-and-play" game was given out for free at the SPIEL 2010 in Essen, Germany, by the Österreichisches Spielemuseum (Austrian Games Museum).

Players start by taking turns populating a grid of connected spaces with their own tokens. When the board is completely full, the players take turns removing one of their own tokens one at a time. When a player's turn ends with one or more tokens isolated, i.e. not connected to any other tokens, those tokens are immediately removed as well. The first player with no tokens left on the board wins the game.
