Are you sure you want to abandon the current game and start a new one?

Play Backgammon against Pythagoras, the math-loving Angora cat! Your goal is to move all your checkers into your home board and then bear them off before Pythagoras does.

1. The Board & Pieces

• You play as the Grey Checkers (moving counter-clockwise from point 24 down to point 1).
• Pythagoras plays as the Blonde Checkers (moving clockwise from point 1 up to point 24).

2. Movement & Hitting

• Roll the dice and move your checkers according to the numbers shown.
• You cannot land on a point occupied by 2 or more of Pythagoras' checkers.
• Landing on a single checker (a "blot") hits it, sending it to the **Bar**.
• Any checkers on the Bar must enter the game first before any other checkers can move.

3. Bearing Off

• Once all 15 of your checkers are in your home board (points 1 to 6), you can start bearing them off.
• The first player to bear off all 15 checkers wins!
