About the game

What you do in a play session

Hey board game enthusiasts! How about a challenge that will stretch your brain as much as the rubber bands in the game? In Triggle, the concept is simple, but the strategy… oh, that will surprise you! Get ready for a battle of wits where every move your opponent makes could be your chance for victory. The goal is clear: claim the most triangles on the board. But how? Each turn, you'll stretch a rubber band across four pegs. The magic happens when you manage to 'close' a triangle with that move! Closed? It's yours! Place one of your tokens and celebrate another point. Sounds easy, right? But the beauty of Triggle lies in how it forces you to think ahead, anticipate other players' moves, and, of course, deceive them a little. It's a game that sharpens spatial reasoning, planning, and critical thinking in a super fun and accessible way. If you enjoy an abstract challenge that plays quickly, Triggle is a great choice. Who will be the master of triangles and make Pythagoras proud?
