Gigamons Board Game

Welcome to the last trial on your path to becoming a full-fledged wizard! In Gigamons you’ll test your memory, gather magical creatures called Elemons, and summon mighty Gigamons to earn your place in the guild.

To set the scene, shuffle the square Elemons tiles and lay nine of them face-down in a 3×3 grid. Keep the rest in a draw pile, and place the seven colourful Gigamon figures (plus a few blocking Rocks) nearby—you’ll be trading pairs of Elemons for those towering friends.

On your turn, simply flip two tiles. If they don’t match, turn them back over and give the next player a chance. Find a matching pair, though, and you get to use that Elemon’s special power (maybe peeking at hidden tiles, swapping spaces, or even removing a pesky Rock) before replacing the matched pair with two fresh tiles from the deck.

Play continues this way until someone has summoned three Gigamons or the draw pile empties. The magician with the most Gigamons ascends to the proud rank of Elemage; tie breakers go to the player with the most leftover Elemons, and if you’re still neck-and-neck, you both graduate together. Grab your robe, sharpen your memory, and let the summoning begin!
