Players and Object
For Two, Three or Four Players. Each player selects all the pegs of one color.
The idea of the game is to get FIVE PEGS OF ONE COLOR IN AN UNINTERRUPTED ROW IN ANY DIRECTION ON THE BOARD. Players place their pegs with this idea in mind.
Setup
To begin the game, one player puts one of his pegs in ANY HOLE on the board, the other players doing the same in turn.
Play
Players place their pegs in turn, one at a time, IN ANY HOLE WHICH HAS NOT ALREADY A PEG IN IT.
Blocking
When any player gets three pegs in a row, with an empty hole at each end, the other players should "BLOCK" him by placing their pegs at either end of his row of pegs and thus prevent him from getting FIVE IN A ROW.
Each player should try to get five of his own pegs in a straight row, at the same time watching his opponents and "blocking" any attempt on their part to get five in a row.
Winning the Game
The player who first succeeds in getting FIVE PEGS OF HIS OWN COLOR IN A STRAIGHT ROW IN ANY DIRECTION but in DIRECTLY ADJACENT SQUARES (either in a horizontal, vertical or diagonal position) WINS THE GAME.
Notes
Please note that the playing board of PEGITY is of a neutral tint which forms a contrast for the various playing pieces, as well as being restful to the players' eyes.
