On
each turn, a single hound moves to a directly connected empty square,
followed by the hare's move - likewise to a directly connected empty
square. The hounds may only move vertically or forward (to the right), not
backward. The hare may move in any direction.
There are no captures. The hounds win by trapping the hare so that he is
unable to move. The hare can win two ways. He can escape, which
he does by moving past (to the left of) all three hounds. Also, if the
hounds move 10 times in a row without advancing (i.e. they only move up
and down) then the hounds are stalling and the hare wins.
You can choose whether to play as the hare or as the hounds.
To move a hound, first use the mouse to select the hound you'd like to
move. Then select the square to move into. Selecting the same hound
twice will cancel the selection. If you're playing the hare, you need
only select the desired square. |
