バックギャモン — ルール

Hypergammon

The aim of the game is the same as in Backgammon: bring all your checkers into your home board and bear them off.

Starting position

Each player has only 3 checkers — on their 24-, 23- and 22-points:

The Jacoby rule

Hypergammon uses the Jacoby rule: gammons and backgammons count as 1 point if nobody doubled during the game.

All the other rules — the first move, moving and hitting, bearing off, the doubling cube, scoring and the Crawford rule — are as in Backgammon.
