Make a mill. Find your next opening. Morrispetal brings Nine Men’s Morris to iPhone, iPad and Mac with illustrated pieces, tactile moves, visual lessons and five free ways to play.
LEARN ONE IDEA AT A TIME
Start with the 24 marked points and your nine pieces. Follow 24 visual lessons across six units, from placement and mills to capture choices, flying, blocking, repetition and reading a reply. Watch highlighted demonstrations, try the move, reason about the position and apply the idea on another board. Six unit checkpoints bring those skills together.
Pinch and explore the skill garden, replay a preview, or choose Try now at any time. Resume your practice and celebrate each completed lesson. No purchase or cloud coaching is needed to learn.
PLAY AT YOUR PACE
• Offline bots: Gentle, Balanced or Advanced, with local hints and undo.
• One device: pass and play with a friend.
• Nearby: host or choose a game, accept a guest and compare verification codes.
• Game Center turn-based: Quick Match seats an opponent at once; Dark makes the first move and Active games shows whose turn it is.
• Game Center live: both players accept a game with ten minutes each and no increment.
All gameplay modes are free. Offline play needs no account.
KEEP EVERY GOOD MOVE
Move between Play, Learn, Games and Profile without extra menus. Reopen completed recordings to see the result, then review placements, slides, flights and captures. Pause, step through a turn or stop optional local analysis. Start a practice copy as Dark or Light while keeping the position’s actual next turn and history.
Find rules help and six rotating practice challenges in the Learn tab. Lessons, challenges and practice copies stay separate from competitive match statistics.
MAKE THE BOARD YOURS
Enjoy 36 illustrated sets plus Classic Clarity, with distinct mill and capture sounds. Pastel Garden and Classic Clarity are included. Preview both sides and their effects in Themes before choosing a look.
Three permanent cosmetic bundles contain 12 Café & Characters sets, 12 Wildlife & Wonders sets and 11 Crystal & Cosmos sets, with matching reaction packs. All Access includes every set, all nine reaction packs and 100 player logos. Restore purchases in Themes. Cosmetics never change legal moves or competitive strength.
Share 66 preset expressions in local, Nearby and live games. Petal Pals and Wooden Pawn are free; favorites, sound and audience controls keep reactions optional. A double mill can bring a skippable Mill Bloom celebration—and still grants only one capture.
YOUR PROGRESS, YOUR COMFORT
Discover 109 personal achievements, earn logos and follow your statistics. Automatic private iCloud sync preserves match progress and completed lesson credits. In-progress lesson boards and bookmarks stay on the device. Open Global rankings in Profile to compare online wins.
Use touch, dragging, keyboard controls or the labeled legal-turn list. Adjust coordinates, contrast, sound, haptics and motion. Lessons and ordinary local hints work without Apple Intelligence; optional coaching on supported devices explains verified move facts.
NINE MEN’S MORRIS RULES
Place nine pieces each. Make three along a complete board line to capture one opposing piece. After placement, slide along connections; with exactly three pieces, fly to any empty point. Win by leaving fewer than three pieces or blocking all legal moves. The third repeated position or 100 capture-free movement turns draws automatically.
Requires iOS/iPadOS 18.6 or macOS 15.6 or later. Game Center needs an Apple Account and internet; Nearby needs local-network permission. No advertising or analytics SDK is included. Optional generated explanations can be mistaken.
