Hand made Gounki game
Finding square wood delayed this one for ages.
The square pieces are from a piece of wood salvaged from the Scout Hall the morning it was demolished. Kind of cool since I was a leader there, and son was a Cub Scout. Rex Goulden was good enough to cut the chunks, and I painted. They aren't perfect, but

Abstract StrategyRacingGrid Movement

Overview

Gounki is an abstract strategy game in which pieces can combine and disperse to affect their movement possibilities. Played on an eight-by-eight square grid, the goal is to move one of your own pieces off the opposite end of the board while preventing your opponent from doing the same.

The complete rules, as well as the C++ source code for a computerized version of the game, can be found at the author's web site, both in English and in French:
