L'enclos

L'enclos is a 1986 game by Michel Boutin, published at the magazine Vers l'Éducation Nouvelle, issue 402.

The game is played in the following board (and setup) has a tiling of hexagons and squares (the black triangles are not part of the game):

Each player has three pieces (les moutons, the sheep), and enough walls (a maximum of 90).

Rules:

  • The player, on her turn, makes two actions by any order:
    • Moves a friendly sheep to an adjacent hexagon (without walls in-between them)
    • Drops a wall in an empty square
  • Wins the player that stalemates the adversary

This game has the same essential ludemes as the classic Amazons, but L'enclos is older.
