I'm terrible at Polyomino, but that's all going to change. My four year old daughter promised me to teach me some tricks.

Looking at all those pieces - is it just me, or does anyone else want to play polyomino with chocolate? Winner gets all the loser's remaining pieces.

@PhatFil - actually those colored pieces remind me more of gummy bears like candies (except for the format, of course)

In Korea, I bought what looked like a bar of chocolate, and found brown plastic chocolate shaped pentomino pieces. It was in the games section, not at the candy counter.

@MRFvR - the fact the substance looked like something gummy or boiled was indeed the first step towards considering confectionary as a playing piece. I considered the grid-nature to be the more important, and suddenly I was imagining chocolate...

I own a chocolate connexion game from Andreas Kuhnekath, Steffen Mühlhäuser named Scho K.O.

@kpato Yes, it is. We own the junior version. It also includes a few puzzles for solitaire play.
@z Are you looking for a trainer?:) No, she does not have an account here. I think 4 year old is a bit too young for that. Maybe I'll sign up my 6 year old soon but at the moment, he's more interested in playing Skylanders on the wii... Make me wonder what the youngest player at LG is?
I do play othello and capture Go with my kids. They understood the rules of othello very quickly, but Go is a too abstract for them. A few days ago, my LG friend Tim Shih told me a nice metaphor for Go. It explains go as a game with dragons and castles. A castle is a structure with at least two windows (or one large windows), a dragon that cannot fly to his castle, will die. If there is enough room, a dragon can build a new castle and then it's safe. Next time, I'll play Dragons and Castles with my kids:)
