ASSEMBLY

GAMEPLAY

2. Now it's the other player's turn to place a disc either on any free space, or on top of the first player's disc (see Figure 1).

3. Continue alternating turns, playing one disc at a time. The only limit is that you cannot build higher than four discs upwards.

4. Try to make a row horizontally, diagonally or vertically, either on the same level, or going upwards (see Figures 2 and 3)!
