From BoardGameGeek

Tactigon is a two player game with a simple ruleset and quick set up. Games typically run 10-15 minutes, so most players like to play multiple games in a sitting. There are two basic concepts at the root of Tactigon: Firstly, the geometry of the pieces are related to how they move. For example, the “Prism” piece resembles a triangle, so it is able to move up to 3 spaces in a turn. Secondly, “slower” pieces are more powerful than “faster” pieces, so each piece has key strengths that can impact your strategy. There are also two ways to win in this game, either by controlling certain spots on the board or capturing your opponent's key piece, the Pentagon. You must always be on your guard while aggressively maneuvering in order to gain the advantage. The rules are simple and the gameplay is intense.
