Zambezy ... a board game of strategic placement and points accumulation using luck of the draw and tactics.

The object is to accumulate points by placing or exposing pieces of the same colour on four adjacent spaces to form squares.

Pieces may be placed on top of others but only on opposing-colour pieces - maximum: 4 high.

Only same-colour pieces on the top tier of any 4 adjacent spaces forming a square score points.

There are 3 different colour exception pieces ... that may help or hinder!

Players only win points with their own colour pieces - even when one is placed by the opponent completing their square(s).

The player with the most points wins.
