GOAL
Guide the sphere from the central fountain into your study room entrance (gold ring on your edge).
GAME SETUP
The sphere starts on the fountain at the board's center. The board is empty — build plates and walls to steer the sphere toward your entrance.
YOUR TURN
VARIANT — OPEN ENDS
The sphere only stops at walls. If it rolls past the end of a plate road or over the board edge, it falls and returns to the fountain. Your own entrance is a doorway — the sphere rolling into it wins immediately, no wall needed.
