    RULES:
    The object of the game is to be the first player to get your pawn to the opposite side of the board. Layout the board and each player selects a pawn. In a 2 player game players place their pawns in the center outer most space across from each other and each player takes 10 fences. In a 4 player game, the other 2 pawns occupy the other outer most middle spaces and each player gets 5 fences. Pick a player to go first then play proceeds clockwise. On your turn you must either move your piece or place one of your fences.
    Pieces move orthogonally 1 space in any direction, but not diagonally. Pieces may not move off the board, nor through a fence. Pieces may jump over 1 piece in its way to the space behind it. If that space is blocked by another piece or a fence, then the piece may jump it to either the right or left. If both those spaces are blocked, then the piece may not move that direction.
    When you place a fence, it must be placed on its long edge next to 2 full squares. Fences may be placed to impede players’ movement but there must always be at least one unobstructed path from each pieces current location to at least 1 square at their target destination. Once placed, fences may not be moved. The first player to get their pawn to the opposite side of the board, wins.

    Personally, I'd rule fences may be moved once all players are out of fences

    • @AntiDroidZ
      @AntiDroidZ 2 роки тому +53

      Then you could have a stalemate at the end of the game. When all walls are placed, the game becomes deterministic. If you are going to lose, you will have to move a wall. If you move a wall so you will win, the other player will move the walk back. Since you can only move your pawn or a wall, you just repeat until someone gets bored and forfeits.
      You could make another rule where you can't move it twice, but then you have to keep track and add rules. This game has some very interesting emergent gameplay from its simple rules already

      Why not just you can't move a wall that the previous player just moved?

      How about this:
      Once you have less than 5/3 walls left (for 2/4 player games), you may use your turn to remove a wall and add it to your collection.
      This way, the opposing player can’t immediately move the wall back, unless he has spare wall. If he doesn’t, he will need to use a turn of his own to pick one up, at which point you can move your pawn through the now removed wall.

      For me, the rules are perfect as they are. I just think a wider board with a proportionaly increase in number of walls available would be nice to favor a longer and more complex match.
