Players compete to be the first to push six of their opponent's
marbles off the board. The rules are easy and can be learned by
almost anyone within a minute or two:
• You can push one, two or three marbles at a time.
• Your marbles can move one space, in a straight line or
laterally.
• Two marbles can push one and three marbles can push one or two
of your opponent's marbles. However, an equal number of marbles
cannot push each other (ie: 1 cannot push 1, 2 cannot push 2,
etc).
That's it! It's a simple, fast moving and fun game involving
subtle and profound strategy. With 4 million copies sold in over 30
countries, Abalone is one of the most popular strategy games of all
time!
