About the game
Majority is all that matters! The entire playing surface of Triangoli consists of triangular spaces, and every four of them form an area. Each player has one game figure and 18 markers. The game figures move along the lines and land on unoccupied intersections. After your move, you may place markers in an adjacent triangle – exactly as many markers as the number of steps you made and always only in one triangle. So far, this seems pretty easy to manage. But after that, you may exchange opposing markers for your own. This changes the majorities within the areas very quickly, and therefore you won't be able to determine the winner until shortly before the game's conclusion. In the end, only the majority of markers per area counts. Until then, players fight for each triangle, and ownership changes constantly.

Questions and answers
Triangoli 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 Triangoli is 15–30 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 Triangoli for ages 10 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.
Triangoli has a complexity rating of 2.3 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
