Description

The sister game to Junishi, 12 Moons,Neteru, and Zodiakos,
Haab is an abstract strategy game inspired by the Mayan Zodiac. (Each player controls 6 of the 19 signs.)

The object of Haab is to move one of your 6 pieces into your opponent's Gate, which is located at the opposite end of the board, in between your opponent's Spawn Areas.

Players begin at either end of a board comprised of 23 circles.
At the start of the game there are not any pieces on the board. Any pieces that a player wishes to use must be "spawned" in one of the Spawn Circles on that player's side of the board.
Players may move the pieces that they already have on the board either by moving them into adjacent circles or by jumping over friendly pieces.
Players also may use their pieces to capture their opponent's piecess by jumping over them.

Haab is a simple and fast paced abstract strategy game that is easy to learn and usually plays in under 20 minutes. It comes in a little cloth bag that also serves as the game board
and it can be carried in any pocket that is big enough to hold a pack of gum.

Haab is a complete game that can be expanded by combining it with its sister games Junishi, 12 Moons, Zodiakos and Neteru.
