Poly-Dol is another board game. The object is to match the pieces on the board to the given arrangement by sliding rows and columns or rotating pieces. All the pieces on a line will be moved together. Poly-Dol somehow resembles the cube which was a hit in late '70s. If you try to match a piece, the other pieces will be ruined because the pieces are moving dependently.
