The challenge in front of you
Bring all four tokens home before the other players. Keep that objective in view throughout the round. Follow this game’s rules rather than another version’s.
The playing sequence
- 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.

One detail worth checking
Safe squares cannot capture; blockades are not part of this edition. Compare the situation with the worked example. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
