Overview

Playball is an abstract ball game in which two players compete against each other in exciting and fast-paced matches. The simple rules provide a strategic challenge for players of all ages!

—description from the publisher

In Playball each of the 2 players controls a team of 3 playballers and tries to defend their endzone while getting the ball into their opponents endzone. On your turn you have 3 movement points which you can use all on 1 of your playballers or move 2 or 3 of them. Movement also includes jumping over your or your opponents playballers.

Whenever you move your playballer over the ball (or jump over any playballer who currently has the ball) you immediately take it with you.

You can also pass the ball in a straight line between your playballers as often as you like.

Whoever gains 3 goals first, by taking the ball into the opponents endzone, wins the game.
