Lotus is a Go-like game where captured pieces swap colors. The goal is to claim the most territory -- pieces and any empty points they surround. It's played on the 72 intersections flower-shaped board, just like the better known, Kensington. Instead of placing a piece on his turn, a player can pull the point track marker one step in his direction. This score is added to the territory count at the end.
