Just wanna confirm this with those who have played FITS before and get your opinion. Even though this may be an abstract strategy game where one have to plan you pieces in advance and make best use of what pieces comes up in a way BLOKUS does but unlike BLOKUS it seems to me that there is ZERO player interaction in this game in the sense you can actually play against a computer or against yourself playing all 4 players since

1. What one player do does not affect another player
2. You do not have the option to screw another player with cards/abilities

Initially wanted to get FITS but then this thought came to mind, I like blokus especially when we try to convince our opponents to not screw us but to block another player instead, but stuff like this do not exist in this game from what i see. So those who played, what do you think ?

Yes, FITS is a solitaire puzzle.
However, like the original (Tetris) it is strangely addictive.
It is the only abstract game I have ever bought.

Blokus is a better game - but I do not enjoy abstract games as they tend to bore me.

It is a solitaire puzzle. Still the other players add a little competition; it's more fun to play it together with others, listening to the 'oh no!'-s etc. Also the last board is about taking risk - you take less risk if you are in a clear leading position and more if you are not.

yes there's very little (in fact close to no) interaction

but from my experience, people will tend to just talk during the game

like, you'll hear cursing and grunts and happy laughter when something fits.


and if you're like me, and like to irritate people, you can just rush those who are taking too long to try to fit the piece, then you will be at the wrath of the other player to the amusement of many

i've had 8 player games and it was pretty nice.
