NINE MEN'S MORRIS Each player has nine pieces, or "men", which move among the board's twenty-four spots. The object of the game is to leave the opposing player with fewer than three pieces or, as in checkers, no legal moves. Placing the pieces: The game begins with an empty board. Players take turns placing their pieces on empty spots. If a player is able to form a row of three pieces along one of the board's lines, he has a "mill" and may remove one of his opponent's pieces from the board; removed pieces may not be placed again. Players must remove any other pieces first before removing a piece from a formed mill. Once all eighteen pieces have been used, players take turns moving. Moving the pieces: To move, a player slides one of his pieces along a board line to an empty adjacent spot. If he cannot do so, he has lost the game. As in the placement stage, a player who aligns three of his pieces on a board line has a mill and may remove one of his opponent's pieces, avoiding the removal of pieces in mills if at all possible. Any player reduced to two pieces is unable to remove any more opposing pieces and thus loses the game.

Overall really enjoy it, very stimulating as far as strategy games go. One bad thing is it turns off audio apps that are running as soon as you move a piece, very annoying. This happens with the Apple music app & third party stuff like Overcast. Also, whenever you move your piece the computer moves in like a tenth of a second or less. Its impossible to actually see so you have to look over the entire board to find their move.

This game doesn't even follow the rules of nine men's Morris. This game was a waste of time.

Fly will sometimes work for you, most of the time it does not allow you to win in fly mode. Also computer player will constantly repeat a move, back and forth when in a jockeying position, infinately until you make a move it can capitalize on. needs a rule for only so many repeat moves before you auto lose.
