The board game that enthralled you over the years is now back in a cool multi
player format on the Internet. The rules are the same and so is the objective.
Move all your pieces into the home and show your opponent that you don’t
forget the tricks you learnt years ago.
At the start of the game, the player's pieces are placed in the areas to the
next to the arms.Each player takes turn to throw the dice.
|
A player moves one of their pieces forward the number of squares indicated
by the die. When a player throws a 6 the player may bring a new piece onto
the starting square, or may choose to move a piece already in play like any
other throw. In either case, every throw of a 6 is rewarded with an additional
turn. If a player cannot make a valid move, such as when they have no
pieces in play and they do not throw a 6, they must pass the die to the
next player.

|
A piece may not be moved onto a square occupied by another piece of the
same player. If a piece lands on a piece owned by another player, the other
player's piece is said to be captured. It is removed from play and must
re-enter via its starting square when a 6 is thrown.

|
Once a piece has moved around the board completely, it passes along the "home column" of its colour. A piece can only complete the journey by
throwing the exact number required: if the number thrown is too large,
another piece must be moved or the player must skip their turn. The winner
is the player whose four pieces finish the journey first.
