Abalone (board game) Abalone (board game) Abalone is an award-winning two-player abstract strategy board game designed by Michel Lalet and Laurent Lévi in 1987. Players are represented by opposing black and white marbles on a hexagonal board with the objective of pushing six of the opponent's marbles off the edge of the board. The game is arranged similar to Chinese checkers but without starting spaces and with a "moat" around the edge of the board. Players start with 14 marbles instead of 10, there are only two "colors", and the starting arrangement is different. But the game also uses a hexagon with marbles
Lose Your Marbles board. In addition, a match of five will send marbles to the opposing player's board. The game in hard mode has a tactic after the player wins 6 games to change its skill and win every single other game. This cause the player to literally lose their marbles. Due to its simplistic controls, "Lose Your Marbles" can be played with two players with one keyboard. Lose Your Marbles also features a LAN multiplayer mode to connect 2 players over a local network.
