Gobblet is an abstract and educational strategy game played on a 4 by 4 game board. In this two player game, each player received 12 pieces which are stacked into 3 sets of 4.

In Gobblet, each player attempts to get 4 pieces of their colour in a row - horizontal, vertical or diagonal. Your pieces start nested and you can only play exposed pieces on your turn, so 1 of your 3 largest pieces always is placed 1st.

On your turn you may play 1 exposed piece from your 3 piles, or you may move 1 piece on the board to any other spot on the board where it will fit. In Gobblet, larger pieces may cover any smaller pieces (even your own).

A piece being played from off the board may not cover an opponent's piece unless it is in a row where your opponent has three of his color. Your memory is also tested as you try to remember what color your larger piece is covering, before you move it. One of the rules is that any time someone has 4 in a row they win.

This means that if you lift one of your pieces on your turn and exposed one of your opponents pieces, giving him 4 in a row, you immediately lose!
