An idea for your next attempt
Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board. Refer to the controls when needed.
What the game asks you to do
Bring all four tokens home before the other players. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. The example below illustrates a decision.
Follow these playing steps
- Roll six to leave the yard.
- Move an eligible token by the die value; home requires an exact roll.
- Capture opponents on non-safe squares.
- Six, capture and finishing a token grant another roll; a third consecutive six forfeits that roll.
Choosing and moving on screen
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. Use the control method described here for this activity. Check any mode label before starting.
A closer look at one example
A token two steps from home cannot use a three. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Keep the controls nearby.
A common point of confusion
Safe squares cannot capture; blockades are not part of this edition. Check the rule before repeating the action. Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules.
