HOW TO PLAY
1

One player controls a single jaguar piece and the other controls a larger group of dog pieces, starting from opposite ends of the board.

2

The dogs move one point at a time along the board's lines, always advancing toward the jaguar's side.

3

The jaguar moves along the lines too, and can jump over an adjacent dog into an empty point beyond it to capture that dog.

4

The dog player wins by surrounding the jaguar so it has no legal move or jump left.

5

The jaguar player wins by capturing enough dogs that the remaining dogs cannot trap it.

6

Agree beforehand on how many dogs must remain for the dog side to still have a chance at trapping the jaguar.
