Description Edit | History

The object of the game is to move a piece to your opponent's last row. The catch is, no one owns the pieces. You can only move a piece in the row nearest you. Pieces are made up of 1, 2, or 3 rings. This number is also the number of spaces it can move. If it lands on another piece, it can move the number of spaces equal to this pieces number of rings. It can also displace that piece with the piece landed upon placed onto another space. Played with tournament rules, you cannot win on an opponent's mistake, but rather, by creating a situation where your opponent cannot block multiple winning combinations.

A winner of the 1985 Concours International de Créateurs de Jeux de Société.
