A small practice goal
After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again. Keep the objective visible.
Understand the aim
Bring all four tokens home before the other players. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Return to the instructions when a step is unclear.
Follow these playing steps
- Roll six to leave the yard.
- Move an eligible token by the die value; home requires an exact roll.
- Capture opponents on non-safe squares.
- Six, capture and finishing a token grant another roll; a third consecutive six forfeits that roll.
Input guidance
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Read the example below alongside these instructions.
See the idea in action
A token two steps from home cannot use a three. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Consider the next action carefully.
A useful caution
Safe squares cannot capture; blockades are not part of this edition. A different version of the game may use a different rule. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
