Before you start
😄 Brain break
Meet the cast — the characters who teach this
-
Mapp (Mentor) the mapmaker — unrolls each world board and asks where it comes from and how you win -
Hopper The jump (Alquerque) — leap the neighbour who sits next to you and land on the empty point just beyond -
Runa The King's run (Brandubh) — slip along the open lines to reach a free corner before the trap closes -
Siege The surround (Brandubh) — box the King in on all four sides at once to win the siege -
Sowa The sower (Oware) — scoop a pit and scatter its seeds one at a time around the board -
Harva The harvest (Oware) — land your last seed to make two or three, then gather them into your store
