I recently bought this really impressive game for my next summer camp:



Now the time has arrived to prepare the components. After opening the box there was a promising view (I love balls!):



Here is the ‘all components’ view (no, the small piece of paper is not the rulebook – which rulebook at all?):



Well, the paper contains some instructions – if you misunderstood the game and used hedgehogs instead of balls or tried to throw your pocket knife through the holes:



Balls! Oh, did I already tell you that I love balls?



This time there is no talking and laughing during setup, just heavy breathing allowed!



During this phase of setup I ceased to be red and started with purple (the bottom piece of this stuff was pale compared to me):

 


At last I finished the setup and started thinking about my opening strategy, but my head was so empty:



After this few moves (I played yellow) I wasn’t able to continue the game – way too complex for my brain still lacking oxygen:



The opponents perspective revealed my hopeless and doomed situation - even the balls were on his side:



After my ashaming defeat I planned my revenge: next time he'll have to do the setup...

It's too small. There is a column and a row missing.

It's better with the missing column! Takes away the middle column as being the single most valuable column.
