Questions
Capture all of your opponent's pieces.
The game is played on a 6x6 grid with curved arcs connecting the corners. Each player has 12 pieces arranged in the two rows closest to them (24 pieces total). Players choose colors; typically dark moves first.
Win by capturing all opponent's pieces. If neither player can capture, the player with more pieces wins.
On your turn, either move one piece or capture one enemy piece. Regular movement: Move one piece orthogonally (up, down, left, right) to any adjacent empty square. Capture: A piece captures by traveling along at least one corner arc and landing on an enemy piece.
Positioning near arcs gives you more capture opportunities. Keep pieces defended - isolated pieces are vulnerable to arc attacks. Look for long capture paths that your opponent might miss.
Surakarta is named after the city of Surakarta (Solo) in Central Java, Indonesia. The game's origin and age are uncertain, but it has been played in Java for generations.
