Threed

Threed is a clever, brain-busting, abstract puzzle game for three-to-four players where every card played results in a slide puzzle that (hopefully) brings you closer to victory. Players compete to assemble a matching three-panel set to complete an image, either in the central 4x4 grid or in their personal collection of won cards. Each trick matters twice: first, it determines who wins the set card, then it determines how many slides in the grid are allowed. The easier it is to win a trick, the more difficult it is to manipulate the grid. The ruleset is relatively simple, but the execution is full of tactical tension. Threed rewards timing, suit management, and spatial planning. Oh, your opponent completed a set the move before you were going to? You just got Threed! —description from the publisher
