How do I play?
It's the ⚪white team versus the ⚫black team.
The first team to 🚀ascend all 7 of their pieces 👑wins. Your goal is to achieve that, and to block the other team from doing the same.
(Learn more about the rules of the Royal Game of Ur at RoyalUr.net/learn, or watch Tom Scott play against Irving Finkel in 2017.)
Each turn starts by rolling 4 binary dice, which results in a number from 0 to 4. The current team gets to move one of their pieces by that many tiles.
All 14 pieces start on position 0 (the space just before tile 1).
Moving a piece onto position 15 (the imaginary space after tile 14) causes that piece to leave the board forever. This is 🚀ascension, and is the goal of the game — the first team to ascend all 7 of their pieces wins.
You will move your pieces along the tiles from tile 1 to tile 14.
The tiles on your side of the board (tiles 1 through 4, 13, and 14) are safe — only your pieces can be there. However, the tiles in the middle (tiles 5 through 12) are unsafe — your opponent's pieces can also be here. If one team's piece lands on the same tile as another team's piece, the piece that was landed on is ⚔️captured! It goes all the way back to position 0.
If a piece lands on a 🏵️rosette (tiles 4, 8, and 14), that team gets to immediately take another turn.
A piece that is on the rosette on tile 8 cannot be ⚔️captured. A piece trying to capture it will simply bounce off onto tile 9.
Playing Ur on my GitHub profile is easy. The dice have already been rolled for you — all you have to do is decide what to do with them. Anyone with a GitHub account can play.
Anyone can join either team at any time, but once you're in a team, you're locked into it until the game ends. You won't be able to play a move when it's the other team's turn.
The list of links below the board image shows each possible move. Clicking one of those will take you to a page where you can create an issue in this repository, where all you have to do is click submit to play your move.
It will take a moment for Github Actions to acknowledge your move, but once it does, you'll see it react with the 'eyes' emoji (:eyes:). A few seconds later it will react with the 'rocket' emoji (:rocket:) to let you know that your move was successful, then leave a comment explaining what happened, and it'll also make a commit to record your move.
(If you don't see any of that, then something went wrong. Ping me in your
issue by typing cc @rossjrw
, and I'll take a look.)
Note that if your team has no possible moves — for example by rolling a 0 — your turn will be automatically skipped. The event log will let you know if this has happened.
