How to play

A second flavour of the Goats & Tigers hunt, played on a triangular-grid board with the three tigers starting in the corners. Play either side against the AI.

Rules

  • Choose to play Goats 🐐 or Tigers 🐯 before the round begins.
  • As Goats: place your 15 goats one at a time, then slide them along the grid lines.
  • As Tigers: step along the lines, or leap over an adjacent goat into an empty point beyond to capture it.
  • Tigers win by capturing 5 goats; goats win by trapping every tiger with no legal move.

Tips

Tip (Goats): never leave a goat with an empty point directly behind it — that's a leap waiting to happen. Build solid walls and shrink the tigers' space. Tip (Tigers): herd goats toward open lines and set up double-jumps.
