A small practice goal
Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Use the example to check your reasoning.

Bring all four tokens home before the other players. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Keep the controls in easy reach.
A walkthrough of the rules
- Roll six to leave the yard.
- Move an eligible token by the die value; home requires an exact roll.
- Capture opponents on non-safe squares.
- Six, capture and finishing a token grant another roll; a third consecutive six forfeits that roll.
Controls
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. A careful first action helps you become familiar with the layout. Read the example below alongside these instructions.
Follow the example
A token two steps from home cannot use a three. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Read the matching step again.
One detail worth checking
Safe squares cannot capture; blockades are not part of this edition. Check the rule before repeating the action. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
