New Game: Lokai and Bele




2 player game, played on the spaces of an 8x8 board.

One player plays black the other white.

16 black and 16 white stackable pieces.


SETUP – A players 16 pieces are placed onto the 1st and 2nd rows closest to him.


OBJECTIVE – The player with the highest score at end game, is declared the winner.


STACK - A stack of one or more pieces of either color.

The color of the stack's top piece determines its owner (e.g., a black top piece makes it a black stack).

Stacks cannot be greater than 4 pieces high.

Stacks of 4 pieces high cannot move.

Stacks cannot split.

CAPTURES - A capture consists of placing a friendly stack on top of an enemy stack.

No stacks are ever removed from the board.

MOVEMENT – Single stacks move like chess queens and capture like chess kings.

Stacks made up of 2 or 3 pieces move like chess kings and capture like chess queens.

Black moves first, turn then alternates.

TURN - On each turn, each player must take one of the following actions:
  • Move a stack or
  • Move a stack and capture another stack.

SCORING - Each players’ stacks composed of 4 pieces are added to the numbers on the spaces of the board that they occupy (e.g., a 4 piece stack plus 3 points for the board space = 7 points).
