Obex is a head-to-head tactical board game where one player builds to ascend, and the other schemes to block the path forward. With just 20 turns to complete a towering monument, the pressure is on—and only one can win. In Obex, two players take on opposing roles: The Architect: Control the mighty Obelisk. There are five ancient segments of the Obelisk scattered across the board. On their turn, the Architect moves their pieces to capture their other tower pieces, thus building the Obelisk as the game progresses. The Architect's goal is to complete the Obelisk before time runs out. The Maze Master: Shape the labyrinth. With only 10 walls and limited time, your mission is to stall, trap, and delay your opponent—deny them their glory! This is done by strategically placing your angled wall pieces to slow down the Architect - but you have to be selective, since you have only 10 walls to place within the game's 20-turn limit. —description from the publisher
