Callisto

Callisto is a seriously satisfying and undeniably simple game to learn, but it uses strategic skills and a little luck to master. The object of the game is to be the player who successfully places the most tiles on the board. Tiles must always be placed next to another tile of the same color. While placing your tiles, you want to cover the most ground so you gain points and block the others from doing so. The game was designed by the world's most accomplished game inventor, Reiner Knizia, a winner of Germany's influential Game of the Year award. The game includes 72 plastic tiles and 12 pillars, a plastic playing board, 3 printed color backgrounds, and instructions. For ages 7 years and up.
