The object of this game is to use your pieces to block your opponent's movement. Each player has four pieces which move and shoot "arrows". Each turn, a player moves a piece any number of empty spaces horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, like a queen in chess) After moving to the destination cell, the piece fires an arrow which can also travel any number of empty spaces horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. Arrows stay on the board and act as barriers for pieces and other arrows. The game is over when one player is unable to move; that player loses and the other player wins.

Player 2 (blue) can move the highlighted piece to the right, and fire an arrow diagonally down and left. This will trap the red piece below and prevent it from moving.
