Limelight is played on a 4x4 grid with the corners cut off using pieces in two colors. White plays first and has 11 pieces, black has 10. On a turn a player enters a piece on one of the edge spaces, pushing a piece there to the next space and so on. However, pieces may not be pushed off the board. When all pieces have been played the board will be full. The player with the most pieces in the nine central squares wins. The game can be played on a larger board with more pieces. If the center region has an even number of spaces and the players tie, the first player wins.
