My First Encounter with Yonmoque Hex: Thoughts and Impressions

Watch “My First Encounter with Yonmoque Hex: Thoughts and Impressions,” a board game review for Yonmoque Hex on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by the creator on YouTube:

Welcome to our channel, where we delve into the thrilling world of board games!! In this video Jake will be giving an overview and his first impressions of the board game Yonmoque Hex from @logygames Kickstarter Page: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/logygames/yonmoque-hex/description Check Out More Games We Recommend!

And no more than that... Get 5 in a row and you immediately lose the game! Yonmoque Hex applies the 'swapping mechanism' from Othello; opponent pieces that are trapped in between two of your own pieces are turned over so that they become your own. The differences with Othello are that you don't just place tiles on the board, you also move them around. Furthermore, placement and movement is determined by the colour of the fields of the board. There are fields in the colors of each of the players (white and blue), as well as 5 neutral fields. Given that there are less squares for the white player (8 versus blue's 12), the white player always gets to play the first move. #boardgames #unboxing #yonmoquehex

About Yonmoque Hex, from BoardGameGeek:

In Yonmoque Hex players try to be the first to get exactly 4 of their pieces in a row. And no more than that... Get 5 in a row and you immediately lose the game! Yonmoque Hex applies the 'swapping mechanism' from Othello; opponent pieces that are trapped in between two of your own pieces are turned over so that they become your own. The differences with Othello are that you don't just place tiles on the board, you also move them around. Furthermore, placement and movement is determined by the colour of the fields of the board. There are fields in the colors of each of the players (white and blue), as well as 5 neutral fields. Given that there are less squares for the white player (8 versus blue's 12), the white player always gets to play the first move.
