Instructions
How to play
Use your mouse or touch screen to select and move your pieces diagonally on the board. The primary goal is to eliminate all of the opponent's pieces by jumping over them. When a piece reaches the far edge of the board, it is promoted, gaining the ability to move more freely. Success depends on positioning your pieces to control the center while protecting your back row.
Tips for beginners
- Try to keep your back row intact for as long as possible to prevent the opponent from crowning their pieces.
- Focus on controlling the center of the board to limit your opponent's movement options.
- Look for opportunities to set up double or triple jumps to clear multiple enemy pieces in one turn.
