Description

Tactic Blue is a compilation of 6 abstract games by 3 different authors. All of the games are played on a two-sided board, using the hex-grid or square-grid side.

  1. Accasta
  2. Abande
  3. Attangle
  4. Attraktion
  5. Alva
  6. International Checkers

Accasta, Abande, Attangle are games designed by Dieter Stein and are part of his stacking games trilogy. Attraktion, a game by Jaroslav Cichocki, uses pull force (attraction) in movement to form a winning condition. Alva, designed by Alvydas Jakeliunas, is like a souped-up version of checkers. The last game included is a classic International Checkers. Apparently the gameboard and components happened to be compatible. Some of the games were previously published on websites.
