Each player places their four pegs in their own starting yard at one arm of the cross-shaped board.

Players take turns rolling the die or spinning the top and move one peg forward around the shared outer track by that many spaces.

A specific roll is usually required to release a peg from the starting yard onto the main track.

Landing exactly on a space occupied by an opponent's peg sends that peg back to its owner's starting yard.

Once a peg completes a full lap around the shared track, it turns up the player's own home stretch toward the finish squares.

The first player to bring all four of their pegs safely into their home squares wins the game.
