If you’ve had your fill of checkers and want something fresh, Ataxx might be just what you’re looking for. This modern strategy board game takes the simple concept of conquering more spaces than your enemy and builds a dynamic, thought-provoking experience around it.
In Ataxx, you start with two pieces on the board and your goal is to spread across the grid while capturing your opponent’s pieces to turn them into your own. But don’t get too comfortable because a single move can turn the tide. It draws inspiration from classics like Ataxx (arcade), Infection, and Hexxagon, blending their best elements with a fresh, modern twist.
Ataxx offers multiple ways to enjoy it, whether you’re playing solo, testing your skills against friends, or diving into daily puzzles. In Solo Mode, you can challenge an AI opponent with three difficulty levels - perfect for honing your strategy. For a more social experience, the 1v1 Mode lets you play with a friend or family member on the same device.
There are also puzzles designed to stretch your problem-solving skills, along with fresh daily challenges to keep things interesting. And the highlight of all this is offline play. You don’t need Wi-Fi or a steady connection, making it easy to enjoy wherever you are. You can enjoy both - a quick session, and longer, more thoughtful ones that will keep you on your toes.
