Fysh

Four balls randomly roll into holes that determine the shape needed for victory. Position your fish and rotate the whole board to achieve that shape in this two player abstract strategy game that will have you thinking upside down, sideways, and outside of the fishbowl.

Shake and shift the Shoal until the four balls stop rolling and settle in holes.

Opening the Shoal reveals the random formation for victory.

 

There are three options for actions: Swim 1 space, Pivot 90 degrees, or Rotate the board 90 degrees.

A turn consists of three of these actions. They may be different actions or the same action multiple times.

 

In this example, Black wins with four fish in the same formation as the balls in the Shoal.

Magnets insure that the board rotation clicks into 90 degree positions and that the fish do not move during rotation.
