Abstract Strategy
Yoté
A traditional West African capturing game played on a 5×6 grid. Players each have a reserve of 12 stones and take turns placing them on empty spaces until the board fills or play shifts to movement. After placement, pieces move and capture by jumping adjacent opponent stones. A capturing sequence can continue: a player who has just captured may immediately capture another piece for each successive jump, allowing multiple captures in one turn.
