A 2 player game play on a 3 by 3 grid. Each player has 3 stones and the object is to get 3 stones in a row (not diagonal.) Once a player has placed his three stones he moves one of his stones on his turn.
There is a note that comes with the game that says this game was taught to the publisher by an Iraqi boy while he was serving in Iraq. They played this game in the sand with stones.
