Ishidó: The Way of Stones — About this game
Each stone carries a colour and a symbol, and every placement must respect the stones already beside it. Your aim is to fit a whole pouch of stones onto the board without running out of legal spaces. Simple matches open the game, but intersections become increasingly demanding as neighbours surround an empty square. Four-way matches are valuable and reward careful preparation. Resist filling every convenient gap immediately: leaving several kinds of matching opportunities gives you more options when an awkward stone arrives.
