Abstract, pattern building, puzzle
The term PENTA refers to a group of Pentaminos which completely covers the space defined by the slider on the game board. Katamino includes 500 PENTAS to challenge you.
To play with two players, use the grid on the back cover of the rulebook. Place the 12 Pentaminos next to the grid. The first player selects one pentamino and places it anywhere on the grid. The piece must lay flat and completely inside the grid area. The second player then selects a pentamino and does the same. The winner is the last player to place a Pentamino completely on the grid.
