Splastwo

Splastwo is a simple two-player game, playable with the Series: Shibumi game system. It uses the 4×4 board, 15 white balls and 15 black ones. Rules The players draw lots to their colour. White colour starts. The board starts empty. Two players, white and black, take turns placing a single ball, or two balls in a line or three balls in a line – orthogonal, contiguous and at the same level - of their colour, either on empty board holes or stacking on 2×2 platforms of existing balls. A player scores one point when he completes the first, the second or the third level, and two points when he puts the last ball of the pyramid, thus completing the fourth level. Players are not allowed to pass and if a player has not legal moves the other player ends the game by placing his remaining balls to complete the pyramid. The game ends when the board is full with the 30 balls and the winner is the player with the highest score. The game can’t end in a draw. Rules for this game are included in the soft cover Shibumi Rule Book
