OBJECT OF THE GAME
Players take turns placing a piece on the board next to the last piece
played (the “Leader”). Completing Circles and Stars scores points.
The first player to score 40 points wins the game. The game can also
end if one player plays his final piece or if no further plays are possible,
in which case high score wins.
CONTENTS
The Cir
H
Kis board, which
has a storage compart-
ment and scoring track for
each player and a central
playing area, and 4 sets of
plastic pieces. Each set
consists of 20 pieces and
a scoring peg.
SETUP
Arrange the board so that each player is seated behind a corner. Select
a set of pieces. Put your scoring peg in the “0” hole near your compart-
ment. Arrange your pieces on the table (this makes it easier for all to
see which pieces haven’t been played).
HOW TO PLAY
The youngest player is first to place a
piece. At least part of it must be inside
the Center Ring or Center Star.
Pieces can only be played where
they fit. They “snap” into place when
placed properly. Play passes to the
left throughout the game.
• FOLLOW THE LEADER. There is only one rule when placing a piece:
Each new piece must touch the last piece played (the Leader).
Pieces “touch” when edge-to-edge, or even just point-to-point,
like Purple’s # 2 piece in the illustration above.
• FREE TURN
There are three ways you may gain a free turn:
1. You place a piece in a space whose adjacent spaces are all filled.
2. You complete the central Star.
3. You place the first Sliver piece. No subsequent Sliver piece is
awarded a free turn.
(Note: the two Sliver spaces adjacent to a
star touch point-to-point.)
