Konane is a two-player strategy board game from Hawaii.
It was invented by the ancient Hawaiian Polynesians. The
game is played on a rectangular board. It begins with black
and white counters filling the board in an alternating
pattern. Players then hop over one another's pieces,
capturing them similar to checkers. The first player unable
to capture is the loser; their opponent is the winner.
The game begins with all the pieces on the board (or table,
ground, etc.) arranged in an alternating pattern. Players
decide which colors to play (black or white).
1. Black traditionally starts first and must remove one
of his pieces either from the middle of the board,
where there are 2 black and 2 white pieces that are
diagonally opposite each other. Or remove a black
piece from one of the four corners of the board
(which will also consist of 2 black and 2 white pieces
diagonally opposite from each other).
2. White then removes one of his pieces orthogonally
adjacent to the empty space created by Black. There
are now two orthogonally adjacent empty spaces on
the board.
3. From here on, players take turns capturing each
other's pieces. All moves must be capturing moves. A
player captures an enemy piece by hopping over it
with their own piece similar to draughts; however,
unlike draughts, captures can be done only
orthogonally and not diagonally. The player's piece
hops over the orthogonally adjacent enemy piece, and
lands on a vacant space immediately beyond. The
player's piece can continue to hop over enemy pieces
but only in the same orthogonal direction. The player
can stop hopping enemy pieces at any time, but must
at least capture one enemy piece in a turn. After the
piece has stopped hopping, the player's turn ends.
Only one piece may be used in a turn to capture enemy
pieces.
The player unable to make a capture is the loser; his
opponent is the winner. It is impossible to draw in Konane,
because one player eventually cannot perform a capture.
