How to play Parcheesi

The same walkthrough the table opens with — you can replay it in the game at any time.

Parchís

Four pieces each, one die, and a race all the way round the board and up your own ramp. First to bring all four home wins.

Getting out and moving

You need a five to bring a piece out of its base. After that, the squares you may move to light up — click a piece to send it.

Safes, bridges and bonuses

Gold squares are safe: nobody can be captured there. Two pieces of one colour form a bridge that blocks everyone. Capture a rival and you get twenty free squares; land a piece home and you get ten.

You're ready

A six lets you roll again — but three sixes in a row send your leading piece back to base. You must land exactly on home. Good luck!
