St. Louis Public Library Board Games @ Central

Welcome to the Board Games @ Central LibGuide! This guide provides information about the board game collection at the St. Louis Public Library's Central Branch.

Quinto

From the Librarian: Quinto is a tile-placement game where players strategically place numbered tiles on a board to create scoring combinations, making it a fun and challenging game for those who enjoy strategic thinking and number puzzles. It's like Scrabble with numbers!

A vintage board game box for Quinto featuring an illustration of three people in ancient Roman attire playing a game with large tiles.  The design highlights classic architectural elements like columns and archways.From the Publisher: Quinto is the new, easy to learn game of numbers for two to four players. Each person  tries to play up to five of his numbered tiles in a straight line with at least one of his tiles touching one previously placed on the board. The numbers on the tiles must total five or a multiple of five in all directions. Quinto is attractively packaged in a bookshelf slipcase containing a large fold-away playing board, tiles and instructions.
