Drop your pieces, then slide them to trap enemy stones between two of yours — wipe out the opponent on a 5×5 board.
Seega has two phases. First, players take turns dropping two pieces at a time onto any empty cell except the centre, until all twenty-four are down. Then the player who did not place last moves first: slide a piece one cell up, down, left or right into an empty square. Capture by sandwiching an enemy piece between two of yours — one move can capture on several sides at once. Clear every enemy piece, or leave the opponent unable to move, to win.
Seega is a hunt-and-capture game from North Africa, long played in Egypt and the surrounding lands on a simple grid scratched in the ground or cut into stone. Nineteenth-century travelers described it being played everywhere, from village squares to the tops of ancient monuments — a folk game in the same broad family as the morris and alquerque games.
Seega is a traditional Egyptian and North-African custodial-capture game, related to other place-and-flank board games. This is an original, free browser build with three difficulties, local two-player, and live online play — no download or account.
