Alquerque

A two player game set on a leather or wooden board with 24 clay pieces of two colours that represent each team.
Before starting each player places their twelve pieces in the two rows closest to to them and in the two rightmost spaces in the center row. the game is played in turns, with each player controling one of the two colors. A piece can move from its point to any empty adjacent point that is connected by a line. A piece can jump over an opposing piece and removed it from the game, if that opposing piece is adjacent and the point beyond is empty. multiple capturing jumps are permitted for a single piece and are compulsory if possible if a capture is possible it must be made, or else the piece is removed from play
the goal is to remove the opponents pieces from the board, or lock the opponent making them unable to make a move.

A mental game that hells train the mind stat.
