Gobblet Gobblers (2015 Version

Product Information

Another fantastic game that requires as much careful thought as Gobblet Gobblers is KerPlunk, which needs the players to have dexterity and to consider their every move. Touched Gobblet: Once you touch a gobblet that is on the board you must play it. If you touch a gobblet that cannot be played, you automatically lose that game.

Just as with tic-tac-toe, you need to try and get three of your pieces in a row without any interceptions from your opponent. Unlike tic-tac-toe, you can ‘gobble’ your opponent’s pieces to claim the spot on the grid as your own! Alternative Games to Gobblet GobblersThere are a few different variations on the Gobblet game theme, which uses the same rules and gameplay instructions as Gobblet Gobblers. These include Gobblet Junior and Gobblet 4×4. How do you win Gobblet Gobblers? In turns, players can either put a new gobblet on the board, move one of their gobblets already on the board to any empty space or gobble up any smaller size gobblet with a bigger gobblet already in play. Player’s may also move their pieces around the board if they wish, but if you move and piece and uncover your opponent’s piece, they now control that spot. OBJECTIVE OF GOBBLET GOBBLERS:The objective of Gobblet Gobblers is to be the first player to match 3 of your characters in a row. NUMBER OF PLAYERS: 2 Players MATERIALS:A rulebook, a game board (separated into 4 connectable pieces), 2 sets of 6 colored characters. TYPE OF GAME : Strategy Board Game AUDIENCE:Kids, Teens, and Adults

Uncovering Gobblets: You can move any gobblet on the board whether it is covering another gobblet or not. However, if you uncover one of your opponent's pieces, and this move reveals a line of 4 of your opponent's pieces, you lose unless you can place your gobblet over a different piece in this same line of 4.Like tic-tac-toe, you have to get three of your pieces in a row – either horizontally, diagonally, or vertically – to win. What steps things up a notch is that you can use your larger pieces to cover the smaller pieces – this is the ‘gobbling’ part of the game. Using the bigger pieces is a more strategic move, so keep them close and don’t waste them! We’ve all spent many a dreary afternoon inside at school playing tic-tac-toe with our friends, and even the teachers sometimes.
