WELCOME TO ISHIDO
An ancient puzzle that will test your meditative and strategic powers. Balance the yin & yang of patience vs. the quick score. Your goal is to empty the pouch, but plan ahead to find the elusive 4-way.
You must match 72 stones on a board of 96 squares.
You can play for points or relax and meditate over each move.

OVERVIEW
Ishido is a board game where you attempt to match stones according to their colors and patterns.

THE GAME BOARD
* The Game Board is eight squares high by 12 squares wide.

* Stones come in sets of 72 stones. Each stone has two attributes:
A color and a symbol. There are six symbols and six
colors in each stoneset, thus creating 36 unique stones.
Each stone comes in a pair, hence 72 stones in each stoneset.

* The Within consists of the interior squares.

* The Beyond consists of the squares at the outer edges of the
board.

* The Touchstone displays the next stone to be played.

* The Scoreboard shows both the number of points scored, and the number
of combination matches achieved.

* The Pouch shows the number of stones remaining
to play.
