## Description

Product Description Stake your claim and protect your territory with the Blokus XL game! Featuring a larger board and bigger pieces than the regular Blokus game, Blokus XL takes less than a minute to learn, but offers endless strategy and fun challenges for the whole family. Each player gets a set of 21 pieces in red, blue, green, or yellow then takes turns placing them on the board. There's just one rule: each piece you play must touch at least one other piece of the same color, but only at the corners! The goal is to fit the most pieces on the board. The game ends when no more pieces can be placed down, and the player with the lowest number remaining wins! For players 7 years and older. desertcart.com P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); From the Manufacturer Blokus is the strategy game for the whole family! Players take turns placing pieces of their chosen color on the board. Each new piece must touch at least one other piece of the same color, but only at the corners! When the board is full, each player counts up the squares in their remaining pieces – the player with least number of squares wins! See more

Review: Best Game - The best game for 4 people and not boring. Each game has different strategies. Material is also high quality.
Review: So fun and easy to get started! - Loved it so much I brought it to a co-op game day and all the other families went out and bought it, too! Great for all grade levels - our youngest just turned 5, but adults enjoy this just as much as the kids. Rules are very easy. It doesn't take long to play if everyone stays seated to take their turn. When I brought it for game day, I acted as the board referee and it made it easier not to screw it up with all new players while they learned how to strategize and place their tiles.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What makes this game deluxe?**
A: This “deluxe” version is pretty much identical to the original production of the game by StrataGems. When Mattel started producing it they changed the board from its original size to a much smaller one. There aren’t more pieces to the game. It’s just a larger board and pieces. Just like when the game was originally produced. In my opinion the larger board is better, but it is an opinion.

**Q: Is this is a listing for the larger 13 x 13 game?**
A: Yes, this is the correct listing for the larger (13 x 13) game. When the new version first came out, there were a lot of unscrupulous sellers that tried to sell the newer (inferior) version under this listing. Amazon has stepped in and restricted this version to ensure that you receive the correct format.

**Q: What is the recommended age minimum for this game?**
A: My daughter is almost 5 years old and she loves board games. Blookus is our favorite game right now because the whole family can enjoy playing it. Rules are simple enough for kids or seniors to understand, while you can also play the game strategically.

**Q: How long does it take to play one game?**
A: I would say anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour and a half. Depends on whether you are playing 2-3-4 people and whether you give a time limit on each play. Super fun game! My 7-year old grandson played it twice with us and asked for his own game!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best Game
*by C***T on December 13, 2025*

The best game for 4 people and not boring. Each game has different strategies. Material is also high quality.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So fun and easy to get started!
*by L***Z on December 31, 2025*

Great for all grade levels - our youngest just turned 5, but adults enjoy this just as much as the kids. Rules are very easy. It doesn't take long to play if everyone stays seated to take their turn.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Game!
*by R***P on January 22, 2026*

Great game! I was introduced to it by a friend on vacation. He had the smaller version, and this one is essentially the same but slightly larger. Games typically last 20–30 minutes and are fun and strategic, with players deciding when to play offense or defense. There’s plenty of friendly smack talk during play. The board feels solid, and while the plastic pieces are well made and durable, my only concern would be misplacing a piece rather than breaking one.
