Gul Bara

Gul Bara is a fun and tricky board game, kind of like backgammon. In this game, your goal is to move all your pieces around the board once, then get them off the board. Sounds easy, right? But it can get pretty intense!

How to Start Playing Gul Bara

Each player has 15 pieces, and they start at the top right corner of the board. You need to move your pieces in a counterclockwise direction until they reach the last six spots at the bottom right. Once you get there, you can start moving them off the board. The first player to get all their pieces out wins!

Rolling the Dice

You and your opponent take turns rolling two dice. The numbers you roll tell you how many spaces you can move your pieces. For example, if you roll a 3 and a 4, you can move one piece three spaces and another piece four spaces (or even move the same piece again).

Rules for Moving Pieces

Your pieces can't land on spots where your opponent's pieces are already sitting. If you roll doubles, like two threes, then you get to play each die twice! So in that case, you'd be able to play three four times and keep rolling until you hit double sixes.

If You Can't Move

But here's the catch: if you're stuck and can't play one of those doubles, then that's it for that turn! For instance, if you've got double fours but can't use all four of them in one turn, you'll have to stop there and miss out on trying to play your fives or sixes.
