Description

Winkers is a challenging and strategic game that requires players to carefully place their colored stones on top of neutral stones on a hexagonal board, with the ultimate goal of achieving a line of three stones of their color to win.

Rules

Winkers is a two-player game played on a hexagonal board with hexagonal tiles. Each player begins with 10 stones of their chosen color and an additional 10 neutral stones. On each turn, a player must either place a neutral stone on an empty hexagonal tile, place a stone of their color on top of any empty neutral stone, or pass their turn if they are unable to make a valid move. The objective of the game is to be the first player to achieve a row of three stones of their color, either horizontally, vertically, or diagonally on adjacent hexagonal tiles. If the first player uses all of their stones without achieving a row of three, they automatically lose the game.
