Konane*

A traditional Hawaiian game, the board consists of rows and columns similar to a chessboard. Players alternate placing black and white pieces on the board.

Black moves first by removing one piece from the center or a corner. White then removes a piece orthogonally adjacent to the empty space created by Black. Players take turns jumping over opposing pieces, with multiple jumps allowed in a single move as long as the direction remains unchanged. The game ends when one player can no longer make a jump, and the opponent wins.
