iamfromthefutureWelcome to the subtle, beautiful two-player abstract game *Pylos*!1ball_selection_dark_0_0_3001
iamfromthefutureIn Pylos, two players stack balls to build a pyramid. [img]https://x.boardgamearena.net/data/tutorials/img6785ec1ee233c5.63409625.jpg[/img] *The player whose ball ultimately sits atop the pyramid is the winner.*2ball_selection_dark_0_0_3001
iamfromthefutureTo start, players alternate placing a ball of their own color from their reserve onto the board. [blue]Click to place one of your balls onto the indicated hollow.[/blue]3pos_selection_1_2_0010pos_selection_1_2_0 2
iamfromthefuture[blue]Place another one of your balls here.[/blue]1pos_selection_1_3_061cb8177a37c710pos_selection_1_3_0 2
iamfromthefutureNow that you placed two of your balls, 13 of the original 15 remain in your reserve.1ballcount_p9136016561cb81823772800
iamfromthefutureYou may choose to stack a ball on top of an existing square of four balls, instead of playing a ball directly onto the board. [blue]Click to place a ball from your reserve here.[/blue]1pos_selection_0_2_161cb81851e2fc10pos_selection_0_2_1 2
iamfromthefuture[blue]Place your next ball here.[/blue]1pos_selection_2_0_061cb818d7755e10pos_selection_2_0_0 2
iamfromthefuture[tip] For success in Pylos, particular *key moves* help you avoid playing balls from your precious reserve. After all, the more balls you save, the better the chance you can play one of yours atop the pyramid. *KEY MOVE 1:* instead of playing a reserve ball, *you may move a played ball up to a higher square*, assuming no other balls will be misplaced in the process.3buttonMoveUpBall61cb81a5c8d7700
iamfromthefutureTo move a ball up, [blue]first click the "Move up a ball" button, then the ball, then its destination.[/blue]4ball_2_0_061cb81a5c8d7710page-title 2 pos_selection_0_1_1 2 ball_2_0_0 2
iamfromthefutureLet's continue on for just a bit more, to set up for the second key move. [blue]Place a ball here.[/blue]1pos_selection_2_2_061cb81bee731210pos_selection_2_2_0 2
iamfromthefuture*KEY MOVE 2:* the other way to save your reserve is by *completing a square made up of balls entirely in your color*. When you do, immediately remove one or two of your available balls and return them to your reserve.1ball_selection_dark_1_2_161cb81ca3657700
iamfromthefuture[blue]Click to complete a square in your color.[/blue]2pos_selection_2_3_061cb81ca3657710pos_selection_2_3_0 2
iamfromthefutureBalls able to be removed are highlighted. Let's remove two. [blue]Click to remove the one you just played,[/blue]1ball_selection_light_2_3_061cb81d118ee710ball_selection_light_2_3_0 2
iamfromthefuture[blue]and then again to remove one from the second level.[/blue]1ball_selection_light_0_2_161cb81e0216a510ball_selection_light_0_2_1 2
iamfromthefuturePlayers continue taking turns in this way until the pyramid is complete, or until a player runs out of balls which is a losing condition. *Will you rule the Pylos pyramid? Good luck!*1ball_1_1_161cb81e32624401
