Nickel

Nickel is a two-player combinatorial game played on a 5x5 grid that is randmly populated with 25 pyramids. The goal is to form an L shape or straight line of 5 pieces in your color or to leave your opponent with no valid moves.

Materials

Nickel works best with five nests each of five colors. However, you can get by with only a Pyramid Arcade (three nests each of five colors) by ignoring size difference.
