Gamehelpblooms

Blooms is a 2-player territory game a bit like the classical game Go, but shorter, easier to learn, and more colorful.

Definitions

Bloom: a bloom is an entire group of connected stones on the board of the same color. A single stone (unconnected to others of the same color) is also a bloom. Fenced: a bloom is fenced when there are no empty spaces adjacent to any of the bloom’s stones.

Gameplay

Each player owns 2 colors of stones.

To start, Player 1 places 1 stone of either of her colors on any empty space.

From then on, starting with Player 2, the players take turns.

On your turn, you must place 1 or 2 stones onto any empty spaces. If you place 2, they must be different colors. Then capture all fenced enemy blooms.

The first player to have captured 20 stones wins.
