Criss Cross is played on a cross-shaped board with each player setting up their five pieces in one arm. A ball is placed in the center. The object is to get the ball into an opponent's goal. Players are moved by die roll, one at a time. If a player's piece ends up in the space with the ball and they have the majority of the pieces in the space they take another turn to move a piece with the ball. If you succeed in carrying the ball over an opponent's goal line they give you a scoring marker. To win the game you must score six goals and they must be divided evenly among your opponents. There are a few additional rules covering things such as interceptions.
