Travel Blokus is the smaller, 2-player verson of Blokus. It is an abstract strategy game with transparent, tetris-shaped, colored pieces that players are trying to play onto the board. The only caveat to placing a piece is that it may not lie adjacent to your other pieces, but instead must be placed touching at least one corner of your pieces already on the board.
The tiles in the Blokus To Go version are made with square holes cut into them that allow them to be snapped onto square-shaped "nubs" on the playing field. There are also two storage trays that hold the tiles for travel. These trays cover the board when the game is not being played and fold open in order for players to access the tiles.

I enjoy this version more than standard Blokus. The straight two player means more opportunity to play and the small size makes it pretty portable.

Short and very sweet. I catch myself playing it in my mind once in a while. One of my current favorites. It reminds me of Go but better (tongue-in-cheek, don't cry blasphemy, please), in that I don't feel that I'm playing blindly, it is more "graspable". It might satisfy those who are intrigued by Go, or have played it casually, but don't want to dedicate themselves to the study of the game. It's a quick fix :) If you are trying to decide whether to buy it, you can try it on the web (blokus.com). Only, it's too bad they couldn't make the piece storage attach to, or be part of the board, so that it could travel without the box.

Nice abstract that's fun and interesting to play. You can apply strategy without taking too long to plan your moves. Note that it's a great two player game, and should not be considered as a cheapened or dumbed-down variant of the 4-player game.
