Ulxrd

Ulxrd is an abstract strategy game in which you move pieces to surround your opponent’s pieces and reduce their living pieces to three or fewer. You win by reaching that limit before your opponent does, so you need to anticipate how the positions will change after each move.

Moving and surrounding

You can move a piece up, down, left or right, but only onto a space occupied by an opponent’s piece. A surrounded piece becomes dead and receives an X mark; dead pieces cannot move. Your pieces can also become dead if your opponent surrounds them.

Play modes

Normal Play (Online Battle) has a time limit, and you lose if you do not make your next move in time. Standalone Mode has no time limit in its initial settings, though you can change this in the settings. If both players reach three or fewer living pieces at the same time, the player who caused that result loses.
