A model of aesthetics, its design makes it a permanent decorative object.
Crowned Game of the Year in Italy and the USA, Pylos introduces a new, simple yet ingenious principle in strategy: a rich game with many subtleties.
The two players each receive 15 marbles, which they must place in turn on the pyramid-shaped board. Two simple principles allow players to save marbles:
-moving an already played marble, by moving it up one or more levels.
-forming a square of their color, which allows them to take back two marbles from the board.
The player who saves the most marbles wins the game by placing the last one at the top of the pyramid.
