Force any one of your opponent's pieces off the board and you win on the spot. Simple rules, deep tactics: • Squares move and push. Rounds only move — but they block like champions. • Every turn MUST end with a push. Run out of pushes and you lose. • After you push, the anchor locks your piece in place: no immediate counter-shove. • Rails guard the sides. The ends are open water.
