## What is 9Kukri?

The ancient strategy game — reimagined.

Nine Men's Morris has challenged minds for over 3,000 years. 9Kukri brings it to life with stunning neon visuals, real-time online multiplayer, voice chat, and a new daily challenge — all on iPhone and iPad.

THE GAME

Place 9 pieces on the board. Form mills (three in a row) to capture your opponent's pieces. Reduce them to just 2 to win. Drop to 3 pieces and Flying Mode kicks in — teleport anywhere on the board for a desperate comeback.

FOUR WAYS TO PLAY

vs Bot
Face the AI at Easy, Medium, or Hard difficulty. A 20-second turn timer keeps every move under pressure. Watch a rewarded ad to buy yourself extra time when it matters most.

Online PvP
Create a game and share the 4-letter code or a direct link. Your opponent taps the link and lands straight in the game. Battle in real time with Firestore-powered live sync, and talk to each other with built-in voice chat. Push notifications tell you the moment it is your turn.

Pass & Play
Two players, one device. Random names are assigned automatically — start playing.

Daily Challenge
A new puzzle every day, hard difficulty, pre-set board. Solve it to extend your streak. Results are recorded automatically when the game ends.

VOICE CHAT

Request a voice call mid-game. Your opponent accepts or declines without leaving the board. Audio is peer-to-peer — nothing is recorded or stored.

SIGN IN OR PLAY AS GUEST

Jump in immediately as a guest with no account required. Sign in with Google or Apple to appear on the global leaderboard and keep your stats across devices. Playing as a guest and changed your mind? Upgrade to a full account at any time without losing your progress.

LEADERBOARD

Top 10 players ranked by online PvP wins. Updated in real time. Guests are not shown — sign in to compete.

DESIGNED FOR EVERY APPLE DEVICE

Fully optimised for iPhone and all iPad sizes in portrait. The game board expands to fill the larger canvas on iPad Pro. Every button, card, and animation scales up beautifully.

VISUAL DETAILS

Triple-ring neon board with animated rainbow border
Frosted glass UI with blur effects throughout
Liquid wave animated background
Mill glow animations when three pieces line up
Danger mode colour shifts when pieces are critically low

YOUR PROGRESS IS ALWAYS SAFE

Game state is saved automatically. Close the app mid-match and pick up exactly where you left off.
