Nature is competitive. The spiders spin their cobwebs to catch their prey and get the energy required to spin more cobwebs. However, only the outmost cobweb will catch the bugs so the spiders must compete to spin when and where the bugs will be.

Cobweb is a simplified version of Politeia. The mancala action system is virtually the same in Cobweb but there are less actions. The stacked majority system is also similar but instead of removing defeated discs, they are simply moved to the bottom and have to work their way back to the top again. If you think Politeia is too complex, Cobweb may be an alternative, and if you think you master Cobweb, Politeia may be your next step.

My name is Nicholas Hjelmberg and I am a hobby gamer since childhood. Starting with classic games like chess and RISK, I moved on to explore "American" games like Diplomacy and Civilization and then "Euro games" like Settlers and Tigris & Euphrates. Combining my game experience with my history interest and IT and quality profession, I have entered the exciting world of board game design and production.
