Paletto

In Paletto, players in compliance with some easy rules remove stones in different colors from a 6x6 square grid board. There are 6 pieces of each of 6 colors. All 36 playing pieces are placed on the game board such that same-colored pieces do not touch horizontally or vertically. This is a Latin square design.

The game is won by the player who either takes all 6 pieces of any color or whoever takes the last piece of the board.

In turn, the players remove stones. Only stones with at least two vacant sides can be removed, and all remaining stones must still be orthogonally connected.
