Harvest more than 24 seeds.

01 · THE ESSENTIALS

The rules to get started

The proposed variant

Two rows of six holes; feeding the opponent is mandatory.

THE ESSENTIALS

How to Play

  1. Each player controls the six pits on their side and sows all the seeds from a pit counterclockwise.
  2. The starting pit is skipped when a sowing completes a full circuit.
  3. If the last seed lands in an opponent's pit and that pit then contains two or three seeds, they are captured.
  4. Capture moves back through previous pits as long as they also contain two or three seeds.
  5. You must feed an opponent who has no seeds left. The first to capture more than 24 seeds wins.
