A Mensa Select game of three-dimensional strategy

There’ll be no stone left unturned in this challenging strategy game. Inspired by Incan architecture, RUMIS (meaning “stones”) sharpens spatial awareness and critical thinking skills as players strategize to outwit their opponents while reconstructing historical Incan structures (pyramid, tower, stairs, and wall).

Each player receives eleven Rumis stones of one color. Players begin, one stone at a time, strategically placing their stones to prevent opponents from having the most visible colored stones. The player with the most stones visible from above wins!

Rumis comes with four beautifully designed game boards

• Chullpa - The Tower, or funeral chamber, where Inca mummies and their treasures were buried
• Coricancha - The Pyramid, or Corral of Gold," the most important temple in the Inca empire.
• Pisac- The Stairways that allowed the Inca to master the steep slopes of their mountainous civilization
• Pirka - The Wall, a common design for buildings, constructed with rough stones set in mud

Includes a unique custom turntable (that allows players to view their structures from every angle), 44 wooden Rumis “stones,” and instructions for variations on the game, including a habit-forming version of solitaire.

Grades 1 and up.
