FITS (board game)

FITS (Fill In The Spaces) is a board game designed by Reiner Knizia that was nominated for the Spiel des Jahres for best game of the year in 2009.

FITS is essentially a board game version of Tetris. Each player has their own board on which they place different pieces. Cards tell players which piece to use. Then, the pieces are slid down an inclined board to mesh with other pieces.
