About the Game

Pathway is a two player game played on a 6x6 (or 8x8...) initially empty checkerboard. The two players, Red and Blue, take turns placing their own checkers on the board, one checker per turn, starting with Red. Players are not allowed to pass.

The first player not to have an available placement wins.

Placement typesAll placements are to unoccupied squares. Adjacencies are orthogonal (horizontal or vertical). A friendly connection is an adjacency between like colored checkers. An enemy connection is an adjacency between different colored checkers.

You can place a checker to form no connections (neither friendly nor enemy). You can place a checker to form exactly one friendly connection and zero or more enemy connections.
