Objective

Flip 3 face-up pieces in a row (horizontally, vertically, diagonally for a colour which you have the objective token, or have the most tokens flipped face-up which you have the objective token.

Game Pieces

The game is played on a 3x3 board, with 4 pieces stacked face-down in each square.

There are 12 pieces of each colour (Red, Yellow, Blue).

For each colour, there are 11 normal tokens and 1 objective token.

Turn

On your turn, you can choose a stack of 4 or a stack of 2 to manipulate. For your first turn, all stacks are stacks of 4.

4-stack: choose 2 to discard, place one face-down on the bottom, and place the last one face-up on top.

2-stack: choose 1 to discard, place the other one face-up on top. Tokens placed this way are locked and can no longer be touched.

Play rotates between both players until a victory condition has been met.

Objective Tokens

Objective tokens can never be placed face-up on a space.

When manipulating an objective token, you can either:

1) Place it face-down when manipulating a 4-stack

2) Discard it if there is no other objective token discarded

3) Take it, if you do not own any other objective token

4) Give it, if your opponent does not own any other objective token.

Victory Condition

Flip 3 pieces face-up in a row (horizontally, vertically, diagonally) for a colour which you have the objective token.

Otherwise, when all spaces are locked, the winner is the player with the most face-up tokens of their colour.

In case of a tie, the winner is the player with the objective token matching the earlier discarded normal token.
