Quinto®, which is Latin for "fifth," is an exciting board and card game that contains elements found in the ancient history of Rome as well as China.  Quinto® is based upon an ancient Roman board game where the winner was the first to capture five spaces in a row. Unlike the Roman game, Quinto® also uses playing cards, which were most likely invented in China.

More on Board Game History > Quinto® is an advanced version of an ancient Roman board game called "Calculi" or "Five in a Row."  In Roman times, the winner was the first player to line up five stones or pebbles in a row, horizontally, vertically, or diagonally on the playing surface.  Today, with the addition of playing cards, a scoring system, and chips to replace the old Roman stones, this ancient board game comes alive as never before.  In fact, Quinto® is so entertaining, we think it's the best board and card game of all time!
