HOW TO PLAY
1

Distribute an even number of seeds into each pit to start the game.

2

Players take turns lifting all seeds from one pit on their own side and sowing them counterclockwise into the following pits.

3

A move that leaves an opponent's pit holding exactly two seeds allows you to capture that pit immediately.

4

If sowing passes all the way around the board back into your starting pit, that pit is skipped rather than refilled.

5

The game ends when a player's row runs empty, and whoever holds the most captured seeds wins.
