Tripples (1974) – A Classic Strategy Game of Arrows and Control

Tripples is a fascinating strategy game first released in 1974 that challenges players to think ahead and adapt with every move. Built on theories of psycho-cybernetics, this game combines skill, logic, and foresight. Each move doesn’t just advance your own piece—it alters your opponent’s options too, making every turn a test of control and clever planning.

How to Play

The game is played on a board made up of removable arrow tiles, which guide how pieces can move. Each player starts from one corner and aims to reach their finish tile on the opposite side. The twist is that your moves are dictated by the arrows under your opponent’s piece, meaning you’re constantly forced to adapt and rethink your strategy. There are also neutral tiles, optional variations, and advanced play rules that add even more depth. Wins can come through reaching the finish, forcing your opponent into repetition, or trapping them so no legal moves remain.

Why Rent Tripples

Tripples is a unique choice for anyone who enjoys chess, Go, or other games of deep strategy. It’s easy to learn at a basic level but can quickly become a battle of foresight and planning that keeps you hooked. Perfect for players of all ages and abilities, it’s a game that grows in complexity the more you play, making it ideal for families, strategy lovers, or anyone looking for something a little different.
