Kolstov's Stones

*** THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO HAS PARTICIPATED IN OUR SALE ***
WEVE HAD AN AMAZING RESPONSE AND MADE IT INTO THE
TOP 20 IN SOME MARKETS !!!!!

Kolstovs Stones brings together the old classic game of Stones (Tic-Tac-Toe, in the West) and the modern rules which do away with such nonsense as stalemates and boredom by redefining the old rules. Stalemates are IMPOSSIBLE. If you dont believe us then keep reading.

This is the real thing, the way Stones was meant to be played. This version allows the complete customisation of the AI down to opponent strategy, competency, and forfeiture times, not to mention match lengths and stone types. Its all here.

FEATURES

--Addictive
Easily the simplest game in the world and yet the most challenging, Kolstovs Stones is incredibly addictive. Now with the ability to set difficulty settings, even completely customise your opponent, you can ensure that you are always challenged.

--Fast-Paced Action
With Kolstovs law changes, and the introduction of the dynamic stone life feature, Stones has never been this fast. Can you step up to the challenge?

--Stalemates are Impossible
Unlike the common childrens version of this classic game, Tic-Tac-Toe, Kolstovs revised laws never allow stalemates to occur. Ever. Its impossible. You either win or youre back to the farm.

--Updated Scoring Model
Years ahead of his time, Nikolai Kolstov introduced Multipliers to the world with the Stones device. Now it is possible to see his hard work in the palm of your hand and the revised rules also allow for the super multiplier for extra scoring opportunities. For those interested we have managed to faithfully reproduce the coloured incandescent bulbs used in the multiplier lamps that were previously thought impossible to manufacture.

--Faithful Reproduction
Every aspect of Kolstovs automated playing board and revised rules has been faithfully reproduced. With the help of our friends at Arden Digital Film Effects we have digitally scanned the original board and playing stones in extremely high detail so when you play Kolstovs Stones you are playing the real thing.

--Complete Instructions Included
We have included the complete instructions found on the products website into the game itself so if youre stumped wondering what to do for some reason then everything is but a finger gesture away. But, then again, what in life isnt?

--Game Save/Resume
Its not always possible to set aside enough time to play full, best of 13, matches against a grand master so we support the ability to save your progress for later resumption. The same is also true if you are interrupted during a game by messages, calls, or an inquisitive boss - the next time you start up you can resume from your exact place.

--Kolstovs Lament
We are extremely fortunate to have met with famed Kolstov pianist, Fernando Macias-Jimenez, who graciously allowed us to reproduce his stunningly haunting Kolstovs Lament within the game. You will actually tear up before youve finished the second Options screen.

--Historical Facts
Weve managed to license an excerpt of Alistair Kenmores book, Nikolai Kolstov: A Life In Stone which details the life of the eccentric genius behind these brilliant rules. Its all there and explains why youve never heard of the game that is taking the world by storm.

--Credits Screen!
Its true. You can see the names of the people responsible for this title from within the game itself. Show your friends and be the life of the party. Its your only chance. Thats what your sister said, anyway.

STILL NOT CONVINCED?
Seriously, then why are you still reading? No one reads this far. Ever.

But, do yourself a favour and get it. There is no way you can get the feel of this radically updated old game without actually playing it and youll forever wonder why the boring version ever persisted. Well wait here while you flick through the screenshots then press the green button at the top.
