About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready to squash your opponents in Squashed, a 3D abstract game that fits in the palm of your hand! The idea is simple: you're on a cube-shaped board, and your goal is to be the last pawn standing. To achieve this, you'll strategically move across the cube's faces in any vertical or horizontal direction. If you pass over or land on an opponent's piece, it gets squashed and removed from the game. Watch out for the King! If you land on it, the entire cube flips, and all pawns on that face are instantly squashed. It's a fast-paced game, with matches lasting 5 to 10 minutes, perfect for those who enjoy direct strategy and a touch of chaos. With super simple rules to learn, Squashed is ideal for filling those spare moments or for a heated contest among friends and family. Who will survive the pressure and emerge victorious? Only playing will tell!
