How to play Surakarta
Pieces slide one step to any empty neighboring point. To capture, a piece travels along the grid lines and through at least one of the looping corner arcs, then lands on an enemy piece and removes it. Mastering the loops is the whole game. Capture all twelve enemy pieces to win.
