Plug In Digital Releases Abalone Board Game Digitally

Plug In Digital has just launched an exciting new game on Android, bringing the classic board game Abalone into the digital realm. Unlike the traditional black and white marbles, this version spices things up with a burst of colors, enhancing the visual appeal while staying true to the original gameplay.

For those new to Abalone, let's dive into its roots. Created by Michel Lalet and Laurent Lévi back in 1987, and officially hitting the market in 1990, Abalone quickly rose to fame as a beloved two-player strategy game throughout the 90s. The objective is straightforward yet challenging: each player starts with 14 marbles—either black or white—and aims to push six of their opponent's marbles off the edges of a 61-space hexagonal board.
