{"product_id":"spline-plus","title":"Spline+","description":"\u003cp\u003eSpline+ was evolved from Spline by adding ball movement. It's a ball-stacking game that can be played with a Series: Shibumi set, as it uses a 4x4 holes board and balls in two colours (white and black). Larger boards can also be used, but no more than 6x6 is recommended.\n\nRules:\n\nDefinition: A pinned ball is a ball that supports 2 or more balls on the level above. Pinned balls cannot be moved\/removed. Movable balls are balls that are not pinned.\n\n2 players. The board starts empty. Starting with white, players take turns either:\n\na) placing a ball of their colour on an empty space or platform (2×2 arrangement of marbles) or...\n\nb) moving a movable ball of their colour already on the board to another valid location. If supported balls drop as a consequence of the ball removal, you can't place your ball on top of the dropped balls.\n\nAim:\n\nThe first player making a full line of his color on any layer wins. Lines may be diagonal.\n\nThis is, for a 4×4 set, a 4-in-a-row on the first layer, or a 3-in-a-row on the 2nd layer, or a 2-in-a-row on the 3rd layer.\n\nIn case of several lines being created as a result of balls dropping, the largest line prevails.\n\nONLINE PLAY\n\nhttp:\/\/www.jocly.com\/jocly\/hubquick\/shibumi-splineplus\n\n(Human and AI)\n\nIncluded in the Shibumi Rule Book\n\nSoft cover:\n\nhttp:\/\/www.lulu.com\/shop\/cameron-browne-and-nestor-romeral-andres\/shibumi-rule-book\/paperback\/product-18940123.html\n\nDownloadable PDF:\n\nhttp:\/\/www.nestorgames.com\/rulebooks\/SHIBUMI_EN.pdf\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlay time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15 min\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComplexity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.33 \/ 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesigner:\u003c\/strong\u003e Néstor Romeral Andrés\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYear:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2011\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"nestorgames","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51924756529368,"sku":"SB-152EFD8FCD49-BOARD-GAMES-UNK-SEALED","price":0.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/6271\/0488\/files\/cn71gsydunfrqjubgfuab45ysrfw.jpg?v=1785456456","url":"https:\/\/abbyboardwalkstore.com\/products\/spline-plus","provider":"Boardwalk Cafe \u0026 Games","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
