The game board shows 9 fields on which the game pieces are placed and moved. In the 2-person game, the game is played on the five central squares of the game board. Each player receives 6 discs in his color and tries to form a tower of three in his own color as quickly as possible. The active player places a piece on a square. The players take turns until all the pieces are on the board. Pieces in a field are stacked to form towers. Each tower can consist of a maximum of three pieces. When all pieces are in play, the active player may always take one of his own free pieces and place it on another square. However, pieces blocked by other pieces are taboo. If none of a player's pieces is free, that player must sit out a round. End of game: As soon as a player succeeds in forming a tower of three of his own pieces, he has won the game.
