Squadro is an abstract strategy game for two players where the goal is to be the first to complete a round trip with four of your five pieces. Each player starts with their pieces in troughs on their side of the board, sitting perpendicular to each other. The movement of the pieces is determined by the 'strength' of the trough from which the piece departed, indicating how many spaces it can advance. Upon reaching the other side of the board, the piece uses the 'strength' of the opposite trough to begin its return journey. But the big twist in Squadro lies in the interaction between pieces: if your piece passes over an opponent's piece, the opposing piece is forced to return to its last starting base, and your moving piece advances one extra space. It might seem risky to place your pieces in vulnerable positions, but the truth is, often, having a piece captured can be an advantage! This is because the opponent's piece that captured yours advances, and this can limit their movement options, as well as giving you additional moves. So, don't be afraid to be bold and put your pieces on the front line; it might be the key to victory! Get ready for a sharp duel of wits and lots of fun with your rival.
