A walkthrough of the rules
- Select a peg and an empty hole two squares away.
- Jump horizontally or vertically over one peg, removing it.
- Plan so remaining pegs can still interact.
- Undo repairs a deadlock.
The controls to know
Click or tap a piece and destination; use the turn indicator and legal-move feedback. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Use one clear input at a time.
Follow the example
Peg–peg–empty in one line permits one jump. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Look for the relevant detail.

Diagonal jumps and pulling are not allowed. Check the rule before repeating the action. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
