The goal to keep in mind
Bring all four tokens home before the other players. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Notice how the game responds to your input.
The order of play
- 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.
Choosing and moving on screen
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Use one clear input at a time.
Try this example
A token two steps from home cannot use a three. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Keep the game’s format in mind.
An important reminder
Safe squares cannot capture; blockades are not part of this edition. Compare the situation with the worked example. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
