A nice abstract card tile laying game with different scoring goals and private objectives each game. The extent is always the same dimensions, but the area you score is not known until the maximum extents are obvious. The game comes with 93 very nice standard sized cards with a linen finish. Unfortunately the box it comes in is a very thin cardboard that it is similar to a tight tuck box for two decks of cards. This was likely done to keep costs down, but I would have paid a few dollars more to have a proper box with a bit more space and a proper lid.

A fun and easy to play game. This is a good one to carry around and play anywhere. I enjoyed the back and forth as you try to create patterns that benefit you and hinder your opponent.

Ultimately, I'm left a little disappointed by Abstract Academy. There's a solid idea behind this great-looking game, and for an RRP of £9.99 you'd probably get more plays per pound than you might for a bigger box game you might only play once or twice! But it's hindered by limited replay ability and variety of the objective cards, and the limited spaces I'd be able to actually get the game out for it to play well - let alone worrying about trying to shove the cards back in the box. For a quick game like this, I want to be able to bring it to the table anywhere and often, without it getting tired, and Abstract Academy simply doesn't tick those brightly-coloured boxes. If you are interested in a copy of this game you can buy this direct from the publisher here and in doing so will give them an exclusive professor Promo card for the game.
