Description:
Several years ago, there was a board game that was similar to CONFOUND.
I loved playing it, but, since it wasn't your run-of-the-mill strategy game, in order to play it with someone, I had to first teach that someone the game.
Of course, once that happened, I could have them for lunch since I knew the game very well, and they were just novices.
Well, time passed and, like a lot of other things I've enjoyed, the game went off the market and the company that did it went out of business (as far as I can tell-- I've looked, and can't find them anywhere).Both you and the computer start off with 2 ""pegs"" and 2 home squares.
You start off on your home squares, ditto for the computer.
Each move you both have a choice -- build or move.
To win the game, one of you needs to get one of his pegs onto one of his opponents home squares.
This means, you must make it as easy as possible for you to get there, while making it as difficult as possible for your opponent.
