## What is Hirnball?

Why not use your brain (from German "Hirn") instead of your foot to get the ball into the opponent's goal?

Hirnball is a strategy board game for two players played on a go board of size 8x10. The game is won, when a ball reaches one of the goal. But to get it there is not as simple as you might think. During the play both players make their moves using board intersections and try to get as close to the opponent's goal as possible, but also to block as many paths to own goal as feasible.

The game offers the following modes:
- Human vs. Human mode
- Human vs. Computer mode with three difficulty levels (Easy, Medium, Pro)
- Human vs. Internet : Random matches mode - play with a random internet player
- Human vs. Internet : Friendly matches mode - play with your game center friends

Do you want to detect game situations, where you could loose? Activate "Game warnings", a feature for Pro players!

Supported languages: German (DE), English (EN), French (FR), Italian (IT), Slovak (SK) and Spanish (ES)
