Getting Started Uckers is a game for 2 or 4 players, played against a computer or online opponents. Each player uses tokens (or ‘bits’) in red and yellow or green and blue. Move your bits clockwise around the board to the final squares before your opponent. - Roll a 6 to move a bit out of the home squares. - Use the value of both dice to move your bits each turn. - Roll a 6 or a double to get an extra turn (settings dependent). Key Rules to Remember Rolling a 6 gives you another turn. A double roll also gives an extra turn if enabled. A double 6 does not grant 2 extra turns. If you can’t move with both dice, you must use the higher value if possible. If blocked, your turn ends. Hacking Off Land on a square with your opponent’s bit to send it back home. Blobbing Up Place two bits of the same color on one square (a ‘blob’) to block your opponent. A mixi-blob (two or more bits of different colors) can be hacked off by your opponent. Sixing-Off Move past a blob by landing behind it and rolling consecutive sixes (one more than the number of bits in the blob). Send your opponent’s bits home and move forward. Finishing Once your bits reach their coloured squares, they are safe from being hacked off (unless suck-backs are enabled). The first player to move all bits to the final square with exact rolls wins. Completing this before your opponent gets any bit around the board to the final square is an eight-piecing. If your opponent hasn’t moved any bits into play at all, it’s an eight piece 'all bits in' victory! Additional Rules Select and customize additional rules to enhance your Uckers experience.
