Strategy board game. Players try to create a horizontal, vertical or diagonal row of 5 pieces (pedals) with their symbol (X or O) inside the structure, while preventing their opponent from making it first. Quixo seems to bear a resemblance to trilliza – with one player holding the O and the other player holding the X and trying to make a line with their symbol – but that’s where the similarity ends. The symbols in Quixo are cubes that have an O on one side, an X on the other, and the other four sides are blank. At the start of the game players place the 25 blank-top cubes on the game base. In a round each player takes a cube that is empty, rotates it to show its symbol, and puts it back on the board by pushing one of the rows it was removed from (horizontally or vertically) and creating an empty space. So some pieces of the board change position each round and the dice slowly change from blanks to O’s and X’s. The game continues until someone is the first to form a horizontal, vertical or diagonal line of five cubes bearing their own symbol – then they are the winner.
