About the game
With just 5 pieces each and 3 rules governing their placement, this game reflects the simplicity of the art and architecture movement which it is named after. The wooden blocks represent 'Bauhaus' style buildings which are placed on to the board. Following the 3 rules of placement, the player who is the last one able to go is the winner. A typical Niek Neuwahl game of elegant simplicity and strategy.
Questions and answers
Inversé supports 2 players according to the catalogue. This is the publisher’s listed player count, so the game is designed for exactly that number of participants. Variants for other group sizes, if any, are described in the rulebook of your edition, so check it before setting up a different configuration.
The listed playing time for Inversé is 10 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Inversé for ages 6 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Inversé has a complexity rating of 2.4 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game.
