Something to practise
Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Notice the feedback after each input.
The challenge in front of you
Bring all four tokens home before the other players. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.
Work through the instructions
- 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.
How to interact with the game
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. Keep the playing area visible while using these controls. Read the example below alongside these instructions.
Put the rules into context
A token two steps from home cannot use a three. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Read the matching step again.
An important reminder
Safe squares cannot capture; blockades are not part of this edition. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Watch the feedback after an action. A message can explain whether the input was accepted or whether a rule needs attention.
