THE ESSENTIALS

How to Play

  1. Komikelu, the fox, always starts. It faces twelve trewas, the herd pieces, which try to surround it.
  2. All pieces move forward or backward one intersection along a board line.
  3. The komikelu captures a trewa by jumping over it to the next empty intersection.
  4. When several successive captures are possible, the komikelu may chain them in the same turn.
  5. The komikelu wins after nine captures; the trewas win if they deprive it of all movement.
