DON’T BE FOOLED BY THE SIMPLICITY OF THE GAME, AS QUORIDOR MINI WILL HAVE YOU OVERTHINKING EVERY MOVE TO BEAT YOUR OPPONENT. THE PREMISE IS STRAIGHTFORWARD - MOVE YOUR PAWN ACROSS THE BOARD TO THE OPPOSITE SIDE BEFORE THE OTHER PLAYER, BUT FOR EACH TURN YOU CAN EITHER PROGRESS YOUR PAWN OR PLACE A WALL TO HINDER YOUR OPPONENT’S PATH. THE GAME INVOLVES MAKING MANY STRATEGIC CHOICES TO HELP YOU WIN, WHILST DOING EVERYTHING YOU CAN TO STOP OTHER PLAYERS FROM WINNING FIRST!

The board game is simple but well-designed like many of Gigamic’s games. Inside the box, we find the 18x18cm playing board which has been reduced in size from the original game board (which is 28x28cm) to make it perfect for travelling. The board is divided into squares to place your pawn on, and the grooves between the squares provide space to place the little wooden walls to obstruct your opponent’s path. The game feels good in quality, with a sturdy board, 4 nicely designed pawns and 20 wooden walls. It comes compact in a small box making it perfect for popping in your bag to bring out all summer while travelling, at a pub or on a picnic.

It’s a game that once you have played it, you can’t help but want to play it again – and your friends will be just the same. The only crucial rule of the game is that you cannot completely block off your opponent’s pathway leaving them walled in, which makes sense, or the game would end very early! With great gameplay for 2 players, and the option for a maximum of 4 players, Quoridor Mini is great for small parties that want a casual game to play whilst socialising.

Overall, Quoridor Mini is a fun game to play, as it’s easy to grasp, quick to play and will result in some hilariously competitive movements. The game was super enjoyable to play with some friends when they came over for a coffee, and it will remain a go-to game for me when I have a friend over. Therefore, it is no surprise why this game has recently been picked up as a TikTok craze, with thousands of people discovering the fun of Gigmanic’s Quoridor Mini.
