How to play

  1. Twelve pits, four seeds each; six pits are yours. No stores: captured seeds are counted beside the board.
  2. Sow a pit's seeds one by one anticlockwise, skipping the pit you started from if you have twelve or more.
  3. If the last seed makes an opponent's pit two or three, capture it, and keep capturing backwards while the pits before it are also two or three.
  4. You may not leave your opponent without seeds when you could feed them, and a move that would take every seed on their side captures nothing.
  5. Twenty-five seeds wins.
