Each player places their starting tokens at their own entry point on the cross-shaped track.

Toss the cowrie shells (or roll the die) to determine how many spaces you may move a token forward.

Landing exactly on a space occupied by an opponent's token sends that token back to the start.

Certain marked spaces act as safe zones where tokens cannot be captured.

The first player to move all of their tokens completely around the track and home wins the round.
