How to Play Overview
Players take turns placing nine stones on the board, aiming to form lines of three. Once all pieces are placed, you slide stones to adjacent points to create new lines. Forming a mill lets you remove an opponent’s stone. The goal? Reduce your opponent to two stones or block all their moves.
