10.1 The rules
In the “default” starting position, there are 4 piles of pieces:
The players take it in turns to remove pieces from the board.
On his turn, a player takes a number of pieces from a single
pile – it may be the whole pile, or just one piece, or any
number in between. The player who takes the last piece wins
– unless the opposite was agreed at the start of the game.
10.2 Playing against the computer
10.2.1 Before play starts
The bottom line shows LW (= “Last to play wins”) or LL (= “Last to play loses”). You can
switch between the two by using ▲ or ▼. When the desired option is shown, press „E“..
The
display then shows DEFAULT , and you have these choices:

To play from the “default” starting position: press „E“.

To play from an alternative starting position:

COLUMNS? ).
o
Press a square in one of the columns c-h. This column will contain the
rightmost pile of pieces.
o
Press „E“, and the number of pieces in each pile is decided at random. Place the
pieces on the board as indicated on the LCD.
10.2.2 The play
