Pathways

About this board game

Pathways is a two-player flicking and dexterity game that plays in about 30 minutes. Released in 2023, it challenges players to send their acrylic disks across a uniquely crafted bamboo board and into the furthest row on the opposite side.

The board features 46 symmetrical holes arranged in a chessboard pattern. Players take turns flicking their 12 disks across the playing surface. When a disk falls into a hole, it creates a new flat surface, making follow-up shots easier and changing the possibilities for later turns.

Each player is trying to get as many of their own disks as possible into their target row. The player with the most disks in that row wins the game. Success depends on carefully guiding each flick while making the changing board work to your advantage.
