Shisima

HOW TO PLAY-Shisima is a two-player abstract strategy board game originating from Kenya, played on an octagon board. Each player, assigned either the red or blue color, begins with three pieces on three adjacent empty points. Turns alternate as players move their pieces either to the center point or an adjacent empty corner. The objective is to form a "three-in-a-row" along a diametrical line. To start, players position their 3 pieces on three successive vacant points along the octagon's perimeter, ensuring vacant points on both ends. The game includes the central point, leaving three initial vacant points. Key rules include turn alternation, moving one piece per turn along marked lines, winning with a three-in-a-row, and a draw if a position is repeated three times.
