Rumis Educational Board Games
So here is a description of Rumis board game. There’ll be no stone left unturned in this challenging strategy game Inspired by Incan architecture, RUMIS (meaning "stones") sharpens spatial awareness and critical thinking skills as players strategize to outwit their opponents while reconstructing historical Incan structures (pyramid, tower, stairs, and wall). Each player receives eleven Rumis stones of one color. Players begin, one stone at a time, strategically placing their stones to prevent opponents from having the most visible colored stones. The player with the most stones visible from above wins! Rumis comes with four beautifully designed game boards, a unique custom turntable, 44 wooden Rumis "stones," and instructions for variations on the game, including a habit-forming version of solitaire. Grades 1 and up. The first player starts by placing a stone on the game board. The stone must stay within the building plan, and not exceed the height limits in the rules. Rival players now place their first stones, so that they touch at least one face of an opponents stone and the game board.
