Gobblet Gobblers - Award-Winning 3x3 Strategy Board Game for Kids & Family | Blue Orange

Overview

Gobblet Gobblers brings the charm of the award-winning Gobblet to younger players with a compact 3x3 board and smaller wooden pieces. The game preserves the core memory and strategy challenge in a kid-friendly format, inviting families to explore thoughtful moves and playful competition.

Your mission is to form a line of three gobblers in a row—horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. The twist lies in stacking: larger gobblers can cover smaller ones, reshaping the board as you play. At the start, pieces are tucked off the board, nested and ready to be revealed. This setup nudges players to balance memory with planning as they decide when to bring pieces into play.

How the game flows

On each turn, you may release an exposed piece from your off-the-board piles or move a visible piece to a compatible location on the grid. Moves can uncover hidden layers, adding a moment of discovery to each decision. The first player to line up three gobblers wins, often after a tense exchange of strategic reveals and clever covers.
