Neighbours is played on a 8x8 square board.Each player starts with 8 stones on each of the back ranks. At each turn,each player must move one of his own stones.A stone slides(orthogonally or diagonally) as many cells as there are directly adjacent stones(of either color). It may move to an empty cell or capture an enemy stone. The first player unable to move loses. Threefold repetition of board position or a high enough number of moves without a capture forces a draw.
