Description:

What makes a car, an elephant and a tree all similar? The wise player knows that they all have trunks and is ready to be a Tribond player.

Players are given a list of three items and must determine the common bond.

Landing on another pawn brings up a challenge situation, where the winner stays put and the loser moves back.

The first team to bring their three pawns around the triangles wins.

Tribond is the game that has everyone thinking in threes.

With each Threezer riddle they solve, the closer they'll move towards the finish. It's the game that asks: What do these three have in common?
