Diaballik*

Diaballik is an abstract strategy game for two players that simulates a sport where two teams try to move their ball to the opponent's starting goal line. The game board is a 7x7 grid, and each player starts with seven ball holders along their edge and their ball in the middle holder. Players take turns moving an empty ball holder or passing the ball between holders, aiming to be the first to reach the opponent's goal while avoiding creating an impenetrable wall that results in an automatic loss.
