ONE is a simple strategy game for 2-6 players. The goal is to form the largest group of connected stones, and to capture stones to prevent your opponents from doing the same.

The first player begins by placing a stone on the board at any point where two lines intersect. The next player may not mirror the first player's move.
== Game play ==


The goal is to create the largest group of connected stones. Stones are only connected if they are directly adjacent. Stones placed diagonally do not count. Here are some examples of connected stones:  
* Players take turns to either:
*# Place a stone, or
*# Capture a stone

=== Place a stone ===


* A stone of the player's colour may be placed on any empty intersection on the board.
* Stones are connected if they are on adjacent intersections with a line between them.
** ''Stones placed diagonally are not connected.''
* Here are some examples of connected stones:

Instead of placing a stone when it is your turn, you may choose to capture one of your opponent's stones instead. Captured stones count for <b>two</b> points.
=== Captures ===


You may only capture a stone if one of your stones is adjacent to the stone you are capturing, and if there is a space directly on the opposite side. Multiple captures are permitted, even if they are of multiple colors. You may not capture diagonally, or capture your own stones. Here are some examples of legal captures:

Score is calculated as follows:
* <code>Player score = [# of stones in the '''largest connected group'''] + 2 × [# of captured stones]</code>
 
* The player with the highest score wins.

The player with the highest score wins.
