The best grid-movement board games 2022
Looking for a really good grid movement game? Then we have just the thing: The best Grid Movement games 2022.
What are Grid Movement board games?
Grid Movement occurs when game pieces move in many directions on the board in a grid. The grid can be square (as in Chess) or hexagonal (as in Abalone).
In a game there may be many identical pieces (as in Chess or Checkers) or only one (like the bishop in Fresco).
"Grid Movement" means not only "grid" - but also movement
Note that the two related mechanics categories for hexagon-grid and square-grid denote only the type of playing field. Indeed, in some games the pieces are not moved on such a board, but only placed. Therefore, this mechanic complements one of the two "-grid" mechanics by specifically stating that the grid is used for movement purposes.
