Cathedral
Two players use differently colored building pieces of varied shapes and sizes to fill a gridded city board. The first player places a single neutral cathedral piece, then players alternate placing one building at a time until no more placements are possible. Players capture territory by surrounding areas that contain at most one opponent or neutral building; captured pieces are removed and that territory becomes off-limits to the opponent. The winner is the player with the fewest unplaceable square units of building remaining.

Pre-blokus favorite. I may not play this as much as Blokus, but it's a keeper for how it looks and that it has different pieces.
