HOW TO PLAY

Fill each pit in the front two rows with four seeds to start.

On your turn, sow all seeds from a chosen pit one at a time into successive pits along the row.

If your final seed lands in an opponent's pit with an odd count, capture the seeds directly opposite on your own row instead.

Captured seeds are moved to your reserve; use them to keep sowing on future turns.

Play continues until one player has no legal move; the other player wins.
