pieces moves.

At each turn, the player can
select one of his piece, move it
and then push other pieces if
possible or first push and then
move. At each step, the program
shows the possibilities:
Here, at the beginning, P can
push S or E (button B) or move
(button A). The player can
skip his turn by pressing SELECT.
Let’s begin the game by moving
E (move the green cursor to E
and press A):
Yellow squares show where the
E can go, the dark green
cursor is the target selector.
Move P behind E and press B :
an arrow appears, this this the
push direction selector. Here
only one push is possible to
validate choice by pressing A
or B or press SELECT to cancel.
Select strength with pad
(up/down or left/right) :
and press A or B to validate :
Red E is out! Well done! The
goal is to push all opponent’s
pieces off the board. Now computer is
thinking…
And it plays:
Now it’s time to learn special
moves. F (flexibility) can
move and push on diagonals
too:
In this position F can push
the red M but the blue one too:
and the blue S :
Select the piece you want to
push with pad (left/right to go
next/previous).
Piece A (agility) offers side pushes:
A can move M out of the board
to left or in next position F:
Be careful to piece R: the
piece pushing it, follows it:
After push :
And one word to explain S
moves, S can :
move, push and then move
or move and move again.
or push, move and then
push
or push first and push
again.
Now, you’re ready to play!
The end

one colour are out or after
to have pressed START during
game…

GP32, press L+R.
