Each turn, players can either move a piece on the beautiful “Flower of Life” board OR change the value of a piece up or down by one. The number shown at the top of each pyramid lik e piece is its movement value and its point value. The more maneuverable your piece, the more points it is worth to your opponent if they capture it, so plan each move wisely! The game ends when a player has lost all of their pieces, or each player only has one piece left. When playing more than two players, the game also ends if a player captures six opposing pieces. When this happens, everyone adds up the number of points they captured and the highest total wins. If you’re good enough in a two-player game, you could achieve victory through the “Win by Sinoda” special condition, in which you get so far ahead on points your opponent cannot catch up even if they did take all of your remaining pieces. Because the game ends when a player is eliminated, games of three or more players keep every player involved to the very end. In fact, a player reduced to their last piece becomes powerful, since players who don’t have enough points to win will want to protect them from the player in the lead, the only player that wants to capture them to end the game.
