JumPico

User Summary: This is a competitive Sugoroku (Japanese type of Parcheesi) game in which players move 4 of their own pieces from their side to their opponent's side. JumPico is characterized by the fact that players advance their pieces while blocking the movement of their opponent's pieces, as in Backgammon. The first player to move 4 of his pieces to his opponent's side wins the game. Passing is prohibited, so a player with no legal moves automatically loses. Blank pieces can always be used with no risk as they always move one space and are thus key to creating a winning strategy. Publisher's summary: ４個の持ち駒を自陣から敵陣まで移動させる対戦型すごろくゲームです。 バックギャモンのように自分の駒で敵の移動を妨害しながら交差して駒を進 めるのが特徴です。駒の数字によって移動できるマス数が決まっています。 早く４個の駒を相手陣地まで移動させれば勝ちですが、パスは禁止なので合 法手が無ければ負けになります。 無地駒は必ず１マス進めるので、これを安全パイに使いながら移動の戦術を 組み立てます。
