Unite: Lines of Action

Now available on mobile! Play this classic strategy game against 7 different levels, or play another person locally or online. Free to play.

Unite is a classic abstract strategy board game for two players. Connect all of your pieces into a single group before your opponent connects theirs.

The rules are simple, but the thought process is unique. Pieces move in a straight line, including diagonals, exactly as many squares as there are pieces on that line. You can jump your own pieces but not your opponent's, and you can capture by landing on an enemy piece. Capturing pieces isn't necessarily good or bad: the winner is simply the first player to bring all their pieces together. Having more pieces makes it easier to block your opponent, but having fewer pieces makes it easier to connect them.

The game is based on Lines of Action; Unite was first released back in 1991 on Mac, but is finally available on iOS.
