Trap-Towers is a game for 2 players, each trying to destroy the opposing pyramids by surrounding it. Gameplay is very similar to the vintage game "Man-In-The-Moon".

What you need[edit | edit source]

  • Three pyramids per player. Since size is irrelevant, each player can use one nest as long as colors are distinct.
  • 3x3 square grid board (like a single Martian Coaster)

Objective[edit | edit source]

To kill off all of the opponent's towers except one.

How to kill towers[edit | edit source]

Have one of your towers on either side of the tower you wish to kill, but only in a straight line (no diagonals).

Turn[edit | edit source]

The shortest player goes first.

You MUST move a tower each turn.

Pieces may move 1 space in any direction (orthogonal or diagonal).
You can only move one piece per turn.
It is legal to intentionally sacrifice a piece.
If you have no valid moves, pass.
