Infinifield Game

Infinifield® is a new strategy board game, designed for 2 to 4 players, ages 6 to adult. It breaks away from traditional games with a fixed board layout and takes the playing field to the 3rd dimension.

The players design the board for every round themselves, and change it throughout the game. We suspect that you can play Infinifield® your whole life and never repeat the same layout. Some volunteers have already begun a life-long study to prove this point.

The rules are incredibly easy to learn and follow. Yet, the game challenges and entertains the most knowledgeable professors just as well as young children. A better player can devise a clever strategy and beat the opponents and there is a winner in every round. We have tested Infinifield® on players of different education levels and age groups and assure you that no professors have been harmed in these experiments, though they didn't consistently win. The game stimulates your logical mind and creativity. We believe that it improves your logic, and maybe even helps to grow new brain cells, but without clear independently confirmed scientific evidence we cannot make this claim seriously. We know for sure that you will have a lot of fun!

Play Infinifield® with your family, friends, and neighbors, or entertain guests at a party. It provides countless possibilities for your imagination as well as strategic thinking.

It only takes a few folks to organize a club. Math Contest Ever since the game was designed, Infinifield has been trying to estimate the number of possible strategically different Infinifield® board layouts. It was easy to call the game “Infinifield”, implying an infinite number of possibilities, but it turned out to be much harder to calculate the actual number. If you approach this task as an artist, then there is truly an infinite number of possible layouts. You may turn blocks in countless ways, striving for a perfect composition. But if you find inner beauty in quadratic equations and logarithmic formulas, then you quickly realize that various layouts that appear different, may be strategically identical. For example, you may turn some blocks at a different angle, but as long as their connections are the same, the strategy will be unchanged. Since we were too lazy to estimate the number of Infinifield board layouts ourselves, Infinifield passed this task on to players by announcing a math contest. "Neat new strategy game - creating the game board for each round is 1/2 the fun!"
