Jishaku

The Original Jishaku is a strategy game that you can take with you for waiting times. The game is easy to learn but will surely thrill you with the unpredictable moves. Jishaku is the Japanese term for “magnet,” and it makes use of magnetic pieces that are not marked. It utilizes magnetic force to allow you to win over your opponent, as there will always be a shriek of surprise when you manage to lure another magnetic piece out of place without any prior warning. There are several variations of play, so you will never wear out your options with this game. The most basic game, of course, is, “I’m Out,” wherein you place your magnets onto the base without having any of them join together. If any two connect, you will have to remove them from the board and add them to your pile. The object of the game is to be the first person to have no more magnets left in his pile. The game comes with small parts, though, so it is best kept away from children below three years old due to choking risk.
