Kluster Magnetic Dexterity Game

Our best-selling tabletop game last year, Kluster is sure to be a huge hit again for Christmas 2024. Kluster is a dexterity game that's incredibly fun, really simple, accessible to everyone and still full of strategy! Kluster’s rules can be explained in no time: Magnetic stones are equally shared between players, who must, in turn, place one stone inside the area delimited by the cord. The first player to get rid of his or her magnets wins. But beware, when stones kluster together during one player’s turn, he or she collects them!
