- Two-player abstract strategy game enthusiasts
- Worth noticing
- In Jielu, either player can lift a floor tile and drop it into the water, changing roads both players may use.
Field notes
Each original game uses a different board-changing rule: Jielu lets players lift and redirect floor tiles, Zhuanhuan turns whole rings carrying both sides’ pieces, and Guanglu flips mirrors that bend both beams. The homepage says each original opening is computer-solved before release; all six listed originals are marked “no forced win,” while a seventh is still being designed. The classics have separate balancing notes.
