Rules and Game Play
1. Players decide what colors to play, and who will start first.
2. Each player's pieces are initially lined up on their side of the board called the home rank.
3. Each piece can move one space at a time following the pattern on the board. Only one piece can be moved per turn.
4. 3 in-a-rows formed in player's home row with their own pieces do not count.
5. HOUSE RULES: These are rules that you and the other player can agree upon. They are not standard for the game.
a) A stalemate where one player cannot make a move is cause for a draw of the game, or a loss to that player.
b) Repeating a position three times can be cause for a draw.

“Although adults have a role to play in teaching social skills to children, it is often best that they play it unobtrusively. In particular, adults must guard against embarrassing unskilled children by correcting them too publicly and against labeling children as shy in ways that may lead the children to see themselves in just that way.”
—Zick Rubin (20th century)
