The objective of the game is to wipe out all of the opponent’s pieces on the board or to have them put in a situation where it is not possible for the opponent to make a valid move. You capture the opponent’s pieces by “leaping over” them with one of your own pieces, meaning: the opponent’s piece has to be placed diagonally in front of your own piece and the square just diagonally behind this square has to be vacant. If a piece has got the possibility of capturing two individual, of the opponent’s pieces, then you decide by yourself, which of the pieces you want to capture.

You lose the game if you cannot make a move, using the above outlined rules, or if you have got no pieces left on the board.

It is possible to beat more pieces in the same turn. If the piece you have just beaten, one of the opponent’s pieces with ends on a square, where you are able to beat yet another of the opponent’s pieces, you must capture this piece and this continues until you cannot capture more of the opponent’s pieces, with the piece in question.
