FOXY

Copyright (c) 1977 Alex Randolph

This game is played on the following 6x6 square board:

There are also 11 friendly stones for each player and 11 neutral stones.

  • SETUP - One player drops each one of the 11 neutral stones on empty cells, and places one stone of each color on opposite corners (called the towers).
    • PIE RULE - One player selects one of the towers and move it on a straight line over the number of cells he wants. On every empty cell, the player places one friendly stone. Then, the other player selects his color.
  • TURN -  On each turn, each player must slide his friendly tower over an orthogonal or diagonal straight line.
    • If the tower moves over an empty cell, the player places a friendly stone under it.
    • A tower cannot move to the cell occupied by the other tower.
    • The tower may move into any of the four corners.
  • GOAL - The winner is whoever occupies 11 cells.
