In brief

Bobail is a two-player strategy board game played on a square board with a 5x5 grid.

Each player has five tokens of different colors that start on the baseline of the board closest to them. A single token of a third color called the Bobail starts in the center of the board. To win, either surround the Bobail or move it to your baseline. On a turn, a player does these two actions in this order:

Move the Bobail: Move it one square in any direction; if you can't move it, you lose (because the other player has surrounded it). Move one of your tokens: Move it any direction to the furthest square possible without leaping over other tokens. On the first turn, the starting player skips the Bobail move.
