In Abalone, players compete to be the first to push six of their opponent's marbles off the board. The rules are easy and can be learned by almost anyone within a minute or two.

You can push one, two or three marbles at a time. Your marbles can move one space, in a straight line or laterally.

And the last rule: you need 2 marbles to push 1 opponent marble, or 3 marbles to push 1 or 2. And this is it!
