HOW TO PLAY
1

Distribute an equal number of seeds into each hole along the players' rows at the start.

2

Players take turns scooping all seeds from one of their own holes and sowing them one at a time into the following holes.

3

Landing the final seed of a turn in specific hole arrangements allows a player to capture the seeds in that hole and pass them to their store.

4

Turns continue back and forth, with players trying to set up favorable captures while avoiding leaving easy captures for their opponent.

5

When one player's row is completely empty and no more legal moves remain, remaining seeds are counted, and the player with more seeds wins.
