The game rules resembles those of chess but with an unsymmetrical setup.
All pieces move like the tower in chess, along the x and y axis on the board and must use 2 pieces to capture 1 or more of enemy pieces. The white defenders must defend the king (in the center) and lead him to one of the corners to win. The black attackers must capture the king from all sides or along a wall to win the game. It is actually a quite enjoyable game that rewards tactic skill and planning.
