Description

Objective: Move one of your 3 'Double'-figures back home - or eliminate all opponent's 'Doubles'
- moving by turns/ forward or backwards/starting positions white & black -

Abstract strategy game where players move disc-shaped pieces across an 12 by 12 cross-hatched ("checker") board.

Pieces only move diagonally, and only one or two space(s) at a time.
If a player can move one of his/her pieces so that it jumps over adjacent pieces of their opponent (only foreward, laterally or backwards - NOT diagonally) into an empty space, that player captures the opponent's discs. Jumping moves must be taken when possible.
If one of your discs reaches opponent's home base it mutates to a 'Double' (max. 3 x, after that opponent's home base is blocked). The movement range of a 'Double' is limited down to one space.

Note:
Back of the board: 'Nine Men Morris'
