The Hype:

Hard Line: The Ultimate four-in-a-row board game 

One of the best things about Hard Line is that it can be played by many different ages and at many different levels of ability. For children it can be played as the higher level progression of "Tic Tac Toe" with rules variations available from the manufacturers web site. For adults it looks like a very unassuming little game until you start playing when some of the strategic aspects of the game begin to show themselves little by little and then by quite a lot!

Basically all you have to do is make a winning line of four dice in a row. Players take turns to place dice on the board and the first person to make a winning line of four wins. It's straightforward enough in theory but you'll soon find the going getting tough…The board has 16 squares on it, arranged in a four-by-four grid. Your objective is to outmaneuver your opponent and be the first to make a winning line.

Within moments of starting the game you're deep into a crisscross of intrigue. Winning lines beckon in all directions - but the wrong move will give the game away. The stakes are raised at every turn. All sorts of options are open to you but which one should you take? That all important winning line can suddenly become a very HARD LINE to get! 

HARD LINE is best played by two people or two teams. It can be played almost endlessly without fear of repetition and offers many hours of intrigue and fun. 

Who is the board game suitable for? 

Hard Line is suitable for adults and for children over the age of 12. 

The game comes ready to play and includes a unique HARD LINE board, full rules, eight white spot dice and eight black spot dice.
