Blokus
Blokus (officially pronounced Block us) is an abstract strategy game with transparent; Tetris-shaped; colored pieces that players are trying to play onto the board. The only caveat to placing a piece is that it may not lie adjacent to your other pieces; but instead must be placed touching at least one corner of your pieces already on the board.
There is a solitaire variation where one player tries to get rid of all the pieces in a single sitting.
