Tak is the board game described in Patrick Rothfuss' bestselling novel, The Wise Man's Fear. It is an elegant two-player strategy game, a refined diversion from the court of Vintas:"Tak is the best sort of game: simple in its rules, complex in its strategy. Bredon beat me handily in all five games we played, but I am proud to say that he never beat me the same way twice".

At first, Tak was intriguing but imaginary. Then in 2015, Patrick Rothfuss worked with James Ernest to make it real. Welcome to Tak: A Beautiful Game.
"My next several hours were spent learning how to play tak. Even if I had not been nearly mad with idleness, I would have enjoyed it.
