FAQ

Q: What is the main objective of a Ugolki match?

A: The core goal of Ugolki is to be the very first player to relocate all of your game pieces from your own starting corner into the opponent's starting zone. It is a race of maneuvering, where you must balance advancing your own pieces quickly while strategically blocking your opponent's path.

Q: How do pieces move and jump during a game?

A: Pieces move by sliding one square at a time, either horizontally or vertically, provided the adjacent square is empty. Additionally, you can jump over any adjacent piece, whether it is your own or your opponent's, into an empty space directly behind it. You can chain these jumps together in a single turn to cover massive distances across the board, which is one of the most exciting aspects of the game's strategy.

Q: Am I forced to complete every possible jump in a sequence, like in some checkers variations?

A: No, you are not forced to finish every potential jump. While you can make multiple jumps in a single turn to leap across the board, completing every possible jump in a sequence is entirely optional. This gives you complete strategic control over exactly where your piece lands at the end of your turn.
