How to play
Objective
Be the last player who can still move. The board shrinks every turn — trap all of your opponent's pieces and you win. There are no draws.
Each turn: move, then destroy
- Move one of your units (a stack of 1–3 pieces) up to as many tiles as its height, along present unoccupied tiles.
- Destroy any one present, unoccupied tile anywhere on the board — it's gone for good.
In fixed-start games the very first turn is move-only (no destroy).
Stacking & splitting
Merge: move onto a friendly unit to combine them (max height 3). Split: peel one piece off a stack of 2+ onto an adjacent empty tile — uses the whole action. Taller stacks move farther, and can jump over holes, rubble, and shorter enemies — reach equals their height.
Win condition
You win when none of your opponent's units can move, merge, or split at the start of their turn. Boxed-in units turn grey; a counter by the turn indicator shows how many of yours can still move.
