Merscom announced today that its game Ingenious is now available in North American retail stores under its ShadeTree Games label. Based on the work of renowned game designer Reiner Knizia, the board game version of Ingenious has been an international best seller. Ingenious will retail for $19.99 USD.

Easy to learn, Ingenious provides hours of challenging fun for one to four players. Players place hexagonal chips of six different colors on the hexagonal board, score points, block opponents’ tile placement, and try to protect themselves from being blocked by their opponents. The player who has the lowest amount of points for any of the six colors loses. Game strategy requires that players score points for each color, and this requires concentration and skill.
