Fourbid

Fourbid is a game of low cunning wherein you must outbid your opponents to claim spaces on half a chessboard and be the first to get four in a row.

Welcome

Welcome to New Games, Old Pieces!  It is our goal to design interesting games which utilize just a few items you probably have already:  a chess set, checkers, a deck of cards, and a six sided die.  We will strive to keep the rules short and sweet, but we ask that you remember the glossary is at hand should you have any questions about a bold term.  If you don't find an answer there, don't be hesitant to post your question in the comment thread for the game!  We will be happy to answer it.
