Chances are you won't have heard about Abalone
if you live outside of France.
Surprising really considering this unusual two player board game
has already sold over three million copies and won a string of industry
awards: Mensa has declared abalone the Best Mind Game of the Year
and it has also picked up Game of the Year awards in France, Spain,
Germany and Switzerland. There's also the small matter of winning
Game of the Decade at the International Games Festival in Cannes
last year.
The popularity of the game has even led to the Abalone brand spinning
off into other avenues such as clothing, sports sponsorship, and
even its own abalone record label!
