This game is played on a Go-like board initially empty. Larger boards imply more strategic matches. Setup. One player drops two black stones and one white stone. The second player decides to swap (and becomes Black) or continues as White. At each turn, each player must do the following sequence: First, drop a friendly stone on an empty cell adjacent to a friendly stone; Second, move a friendly stone, like a Chess Queen, to an empty cell. It is illegal to make any 2x2 deadlock patterns, like: x o o x o x x o Black wins by connecting the north and south edges, White by connecting the east and west edges. The connecting path may include orthogonal and diagonal connections -description from designer
