How to play
- Tap the dice to roll. Roll a 6 to bring a piece out of your corner onto the board.
- Tap a glowing piece to move it that many squares round the board. A 6 rolls again.
- Land on another colour to send it back to its corner. Stars and start squares are safe.
- Race up your coloured path into the middle, with the exact roll. Get all your pieces home first to win.
Game options
- Players: 2, 3 or 4 around the board.
- Classic: 4 pieces each, the full game.
- Quick: 2 pieces each, for a shorter game.
- Computer level: easy (relaxed), medium (smart) or hard (sharp computers that hunt your pieces).
Tips
- Get pieces out early. With more pieces on the board, every roll gives you a choice, so a 6 is never wasted.
- Rest on safe squares. Stars and start squares can’t be captured. Park there when an opponent is close behind.
- Count the danger. A piece 1 to 6 squares in front of an opponent can be hit on the next roll. Move it on, or out of reach.
- Capture when you can. Sending a piece back to its corner costs the other player a lot more than one move costs you.
