Kluster Board Game

Kluster is a dexterity game with very minimal yet satisfying components. You get a piece of string, a drawstring bag and a handful of powerful, pebble-shaped magnets. You must place these magnets in places to force your opponents into corners, make them make mistakes and make sure you do not force them magnets to attract together yourself.

Kluster is an extremely quick, simple and tactile game that anyone in the family can play. From kids to grandma, everyone knows how magnets work and can easily grasp rules that are nearly non-existent. Place a magnet and move on, perhaps more of an activity than a game, Kluster is wildly entertaining. It gets everyone around the table shouting as the magnets clickety-klack together.

Even just playing with the magnets in your hand while you wait your turn is soothing, they are smooth, very powerful and of varying shapes and sizes. I mean, who does not want to play with magnets? They are basically magic. Kluster is a fun game that can be set up in seconds, played in minutes and put away lightning quick, great for journeys and can be played on just about any surface.

There is something to be said for games that take up no table space, can be explained in under a minute and have such a presence and tactility when you play them. Watching magnets shift and wobble as you place a risky piece in a small gap is exciting. Seeing everyone's face around the table contort and crease up as each magnet is placed slowly and with so much care is brilliant.

Not many games have people slowly put down a piece and just hope that no other pieces start to slide towards them in an eruption of clicking and groaning. Kluster is fun for all ages, all skill levels and screams, “Just one more game”.
