Spaghetti Junction

The board is an 8 by 8 checkerboard, with the central four squares blanked out. Each corner has a road bend and is the starting point for each of the players. The objective is to lay tiles, representing sections of road, in such a way as to build a road which starts at one's corner, loops round the center of the board and comes back to the start point. Inevitably each players road becomes entangled with other players' roads. The trick is to try to co-opt other's road sections while hindering other players. Dead ends and enclosed loops are not allowed so there is always a potential path for all players. Somewhat similar to Metro and Tsuro.
