Abstract Strategy
Surakarta
A two-player abstract strategy game played with simple pawns on a grid that includes looping circular paths around the board corners. Players move pawns one space orthogonally, and capture by moving a pawn along one or more of the circular loops and then onto an opponent’s piece. The looping capture mechanic is central, requiring planning to create and defend long-range capture routes while advancing pawns toward the opponent.
