Quoridor Game

Product Information

Quoridor Mini is the smaller sibling to Quoridor, in literal size! While Quoridor comes in at around 28x28cm, Quoridor Mini is closer to 18x18cm. This makes it a far more appealing option as a ‘travel-sized’ game. Whenever you bump into your opponent’s pawn you’re able to hop over it, progressing you one additional space on the board. Zatu has an excellent range of games and for most of them the best prices too. Delivery is always fast and I have never received a game in bad condition. 10/10 would recommend. Glendenning's notation is acceptable but some dislike the fact that the board is always upside down.

Pentamind World Championship: In 2018, Quoridor was played among 5 games in the Pentamind tournament. [13] Loisier says Quoridor’s success on TikTok has had a measurable impact on sales, and people now approach him at conventions, recognising the game. Modern Algebraic Notation: Later in the years algebraic chess notation influenced Quoridor’s notation and now a similar notation is used. The rules are identical to those for two players, but it is forbidden to jump more than one pawn (fig.10).In competition, Quoridor games are played with a time control. If a player's time runs out before the game is completed, the game is automatically lost. Like a game of cat and mouse, where you’re each playing the cat as well as the mouse, this is a thinky race. And yet it is not always a race. I sometimes focus on trying to shorten my own journey time, but other times it’s more about sending my opponent down longer paths. In fact, it is more like a labyrinth. You think you can see the exit from the mind maddening maze, and then it flip reverses on you again!

The game board is not painted and colored, the wood grain is visible. Size of the board is one size larger than the regular version. The color of the pieces has also been changed. Glendenning's Notation: In 2005, Lisa Glendenning's thesis [6] proposed a reasonable notation, which is partly influenced by NESW notation. From the first player's view the squares are labeled a to i (right to left), and 9 to 1 (bottom to top). The 1st player always starts at the top of the board and the 2nd player starts at the bottom. The board never changes its orientation. Wall placements are noted by the northwest square of the wall followed by its orientation.

Quoridor Giant: The design is the same as the regular version, but the size is about 4 times bigger. When the game starts, the 4 pawns are placed in the center of each of the sides of the board and each player is given 5 fences.Quoridor Mini has a wonderful tactile nature to it. The board has grooves running between each square within the grid, up, down, left, right. On your turn you can either move your pawn into one adjacent square (not diagonal). Or, you can place a wall, which sits within a groove of your choice. The walls are two square’s length, and you can place them anywhere you like. You can sit it at right angles to another, creating corners. You can place one parallel to another, creating a ‘corridor’.

NESW notation is relatively hard to follow because if one does not know the pawns location, it must be traced again from the starting position. Moves may be interspersed with commentary (annotations). When the game score resumes with player 2, player 3 or player 4 's move, an ellipsis (...) fills the position of player 1 's move, for example:
