INSTRUCTIONS

AGES: 5+

PLAYERS: 2

CONTENTS: 64 Double-sided Disks, One Easy-ip Game

Board and Instructions.

OBJECT: To have the most disks of your color on the board

at the end of the game.

SET-UP: Position the game board so that each player

is near a disk tray. Each player selects a color; white or

black, and uses the disk side that corresponds to that color

throughout play.

Players take two disks from their

respective trays and set up play in the

center of the game tray as shown in

Diagram 1. The game always starts

with the disks arranged in this manner.

“White” always moves rst.

PLAY: A move consists of a player

positioning his/her disk in such a manner

that it traps an opponent’s disk or row of

disks between two disks of his color.

The player in Diagram 2, for example,

plays white Disk 3, trapping the black

disk between it and white Disk 2.

The player then uses his/her index nger to ip the trapped

disk. In the above example disks 1, 2, 3, and B are all now

white side up.

It is now the other player’s turn. He places his black disk

next to a white one, trapping it between two black disks, then

flipping the white disk to black.

As play progresses, players will be able

to make multiple traps, capturing more

than one disk in a row or rows. Rows

may be horizontal, vertical, diagonal

or any of those directions at the same

time. See Diagram 3a.

The player in Diagram 3a places disk 1

and then flips disks A and B to white.

When a disk is played, only the trapped disks in a direct

line from it may be flipped. A single move may change the

alignment of other rows, away from the played disk, but

these disks may not be flipped. For example, when the disks

trapped in Diagram 3b are flipped to white, it appears that

two other disks may be flipped.

A player must always play to trap his opponent’s disk(s). If

he or she cannot make a trap play, he or she loses his turn.

Only like-colored disks next to one another may be flipped

in a multiple trap move. If a different colored disk or empty

pocket breaks up a row, there is no trap or a lesser trap. For

example, in Diagram 4, Disk A is played and Disks 1, 2 and

3 are trapped and turned. However, Disks 4 and 5 are not

trapped and are not turned.

The game ends when there is no possible move left for

either player.

WINNING: The winner is the player with the most disks of

his color covering the board ant the end of play.
