Traditional russian game, offers Spider

Spiders is a board game for 2, 3 or 4 players.

The set includes a folding plas, pieces, a dice, a bag for pieces.

Policy:

Players make moves offers in a fixed order, throwing a dice beforehand.

The fields on the periphery are the starting fields for flies, while the central ones are important for the course and purpose of the game.

In addition to the game board, you need 24 pieces representing flies and one pawn representing a spider. You also need a bone to play.

Spider can be a game for 2,3 or 4 people. One person always plays a Spider. Other players have "Flies".

If there are two players, the opponent of the Spider plays 24 Flies.
If there are three players, we have a Spider and two opponents who have 12 Flies each.
If there are four players, one game is Spider, and the other three have 8 Flies.

Before starting the game, the spider is located in the center of the board. All Flies are located in the fields at the edge of the board.

The game begins with one of the players playing Flies. If there are two players (spider and flies), the players take turns making moves. If there are more players, it should be remembered that after each move of the Fly there is a movement of the Spider. With four players, first plays Fly-1, then Spider, then Fly-2, then Spider, then Fly-3, then Spider, etc.

In each move, the player rolls a dice and moves his pawn by as many fields as the meshes were thrown. You can change the direction of movement while you are moving, but you cannot move forward and backward in the same movement. So you can turn to the side, but you can not change the direction of movement by 180 degrees (this would allow you to de facto shorten the movement).

The player playing Flies chooses which fly he wants to move.

Note: The spider during the game cannot pass through 8 bright fields in the middle of the board.

Flies can not beat the Spider. Only the Spider can beat the Flies.
A beating occurs when a Spider passes through a field occupied by a Fly or stands on such a field at the end of the movement.

A spider cannot beat only those Flies that have occupied one of the eight middle fields on the board.

A fly can enter the middle field only if the number of meshes discarded allows it.

The goal of the game is different for spider and flies.

Flies try to "kidnap the web". They can do this by occupying all eight fields in the middle of the board. Recall that the Spider can not beat flies in these fields and can not pass through these fields.

The spider's goal is to kill enough Flies to prevent the Flies from winning.
