コナネ

The game is played on an 8x8 board (modern) or various traditional sizes. Every square is filled with alternating black and white stones. Black removes one stone from the center or a corner, then White removes an adjacent stone.

Win by making the last legal move. When your opponent has no jumping moves available, they lose.

After the initial removals, players take turns jumping. Black moves first (after the initial piece removals). Pieces can only move by jumping orthogonally (horizontally or vertically) over an adjacent enemy piece to the empty square beyond.

Plan several moves ahead - the board state changes rapidly. Try to create positions where you have more jumping options than your opponent. Be careful with multi-jumps - they might leave you with no future moves.

Konane was played by Hawaiian royalty and commoners for centuries before Western contact. Games could have significant stakes, and the game was banned by missionaries in the 19th century but survived among Hawaiian communities.
