Rio Grande Games Yinsh

Fun and challenging at the same time. As you approach the winning condition, your board position gets weaker. Great mechanism. Really makes you think har as you get closer to the winning condition. Have played over 200+ abstract games. This is in the top 5.

Fun game that is kind of a combination of checkers and chess. Game takes about 30 minutes , so great brain break at lunch at work, or at home anytime

I think my family thought I was crazy to purchase Yinsh solely on the advice of strangers but now that weve played it, Ive been redeemed. Very easy to learn which made it appealing to my kids, but its really challenging to win which made it something my wife wanted to play. A good combo!

This is a very simple game, but contains depth. High replayability and the game mechanics put both players on the same playing field.

This is an excellent game. As with most games the more you play the better you get. This game becomes more complex each time you play with a chess like strategy system but not so complex that playing with a young gamer is impossible. Another reiviewer wrote something like this is my wife and Is just one more game game. Well I couldnt agree more. Its not overly long so you can get in a 3 round set before bed. I have since purchased several for gifts because we enjoyed it so much.

Bought this for my 11 year old granddaughter who loves board games. She has played it with her dad and says she really likes it. I’m happy.

I love all these gipf games...I have zertz ....tzaar...and dvonn too...these are great abstract strategy games...I dont like mindless games like monopoly where you just roll dice and dont think...I like games where you think ahead 4 or 5 moves

Purchased Yinsh because of the great reviews and it did not disappoint! Also my 11 year old granddaughter beat me the first 3 out of 4 games! It is quick to learn the rules but not so easy to win!

Very nice piece strategic board game for beginners.

This game is definitely better than Checkers! Ive played at least 30 matches and would play more if I could get others to play it with me more often. Pieces are quality, but they come in plastic bags that cant be resealed. I put the pieces in cloth bags instead. It adds a little character to the feel of the game. No complaints. 5 of 5.
