Sow seeds the classic way, but one pit per side stays hidden until a capture finally exposes it.
Was this fun?
How to play
Choose a pit and sow its seeds one by one around the board into your store and beyond. Land your last seed in your store for another turn, or in an empty pit on your side to capture the seeds opposite. One pit on each side is concealed, revealed only when it's caught up in a capture.
Sow counter-clockwise from any of your pits
End in your store to earn an extra turn
End in an empty home pit to capture the seeds across from it
The hidden pit is unmasked when a capture touches it
