Pompeii Garden matching

Pompeii Garden matchingA two player strategy game played on a board reproduced from archeological finds in Pompeii. The object is simple: create a row of three pegs. However, special pegs assigned to the outer ring can lock the positions of pegs on a spoke of the wheel shaped board. It's a trickier challenge than one might think at first glance. Made in USA.

The objective is simply to eliminate all your opponent's pieces OR to trap them so they cannot move

the player (on the side of the faithful Angels) tries to defeat the fallen Host of Satan

Though there are many variations (especially in the game board) the core rules are universal

Made in the USA for solo players age 8+

particularly in the shaded “neutral zone” where all pieces are safe

or to stalemate the other player by immobilizing their pieces

You control the placement of your forces in each skirmish

from ancient conflicts to contemporary wars through the 1950s

This travel-size version features a 4x4-inch solid wood board

Each board is 5

so pieces stay put until moved

and deciding which is best
