Game Symbolus4: Playing field Symbolus4 and 6 game cones in the same color for each player.

Game Symbolus6: Symbolus6 playing field and 8 game cones in the same color for each player.

The aim of the game Symbolus4 is to get 4 identical symbols (6 in Symbolus6) in order to occupy a symbol block with your 6 game cones (8 in Symbolus6) in order to reduce the game cones of your fellow players to less than 4, e.g. 6 according to the game rules.

Rules of the game:

1. The starting order will be drawn at random.

2. The players take turns placing the cones on the symbols in the starting order, depending on their own strategy. Only when a player has placed all of his cones on the playing field can he move a maximum of 3 symbols in any direction on the connecting lines between the symbols. Another cone on a symbol is an obstacle and cannot be jumped over.

3. If a player can occupy 4 (or 6) identical symbols, he says “symbol block” and can remove a cone of his choice from the field for one of his fellow players each time he closes the symbol block.

4. If a player has fewer cones than the playing field has matching symbols, he is eliminated from the game and all his cones are removed from the playing field.

The winner of the game is the last player to have pieces on the board.
