PYRAMIX - Board Game
 
The three - Sided Strategy Game
 
 
Pull apart the pyramid!
 
In this simple yet elegant strategy game, take turns removing one cube at a time from the pyramid stack.
 
As cubes are pulled, others will slide down towards the base. Plan your moves carefully as the bottom-most cubes are worth big points at the end. And watch out for cobras that may drop in and take a bite out of your score!

Pull apart the pyramid! In Pyramix, players take turns removing one cube at a time from the pyramid stack. Cubes come in four colours and are worth 1-3 points depending on their symbol. You can remove a cube as long as two or three faces are exposed and it's not touching a cobra cube. (You can remove the cobra cube itself, but it's worth zero points. With no other options, though, you might have to remove it!)
 
As cubes come out, others slide down toward the base. When only a single layer of cubes remains in the plastic tray, the game ends. Remove all the cobra cubes on the bottom level, along with any cubes that share a face with cobras. Whoever has the most ankhs in each colour now claims any cubes of this colour from the tray. (In a tie, no one claims these cubes.) Players then tally their points, and whoever has the high score wins.
