About

Abbalone is the sibling catalog record of Abbalone 3D by Michael Christen / Anomic Software (1996), a Mac shareware implementation of the hexagonal marble-pushing board game Abalone. Its primary design goal was a friendly user interface paired with a notably strong computer opponent.Sibling entryThis record (slug abbalone-0) duplicates the canonical Abbalone 3D listing at /games/abbalone-3d. The Macintosh Garden entry, the BinHex archive in game/brd/abbalone-3d.hqx, and the German variant abbalone-3d-de.hqx all describe the same Anomic Software release; for the full catalog page see the sibling entry.ConceptAbalone is a two-player abstract strategy game on a hexagonal board: each side starts with a cluster of marbles and tries to shove the opponent's marbles off the edge by forming in-line groups that out-number the defender. Abbalone 3D ports that ruleset to the Mac with a 3D rendered board and a single-player mode against the program.Author and licensingThe package is written by Michael Christen and shipped under the Anomic Software label as 30 USD shareware with a one-month free trial. Redistribution is allowed as long as the application, the Register helper, and the Read Me ship together; commercial bundling and inclusion in MSN-hosted services are explicitly disallowed.
