About Abalone

Abalone is an abstract strategy game played on a hexagonal board with black and white marbles. Your goal is to push your opponent’s marbles off the board by planning your moves and anticipating their responses.

Move and push marbles

On each turn, you can move one, two or three marbles in a line by one space in any direction. In a Sumito position, your marbles are in contact with and outnumber your opponent’s, allowing you to push their marbles. For example, three black marbles can push one or two white marbles. A marble pushed off the board is lost, and the board’s edges are especially dangerous.

Winning depends on positioning as well as attack. You can set traps, sacrifice marbles or strategic positions, and block your opponent. The game is easy to learn but calls for strategic thought and looking ahead; a hasty move can leave you in a poor position.

Game modes

Challenge Mode offers progressively harder solo challenges, starting with pushing one marble off the board and advancing to challenges involving two. You can review games move by move to study the play. Free Play Mode lets you create a game, set your own rules and place the starting marbles.

Play alone or together

You can play solo against the AI at Easy, Medium or Hard difficulty, or compete with friends in Pass & Play Mode on the same device. Online Mode lets you play against other players online after logging in to an Asmodee account.
