Rules and Instructions for the Game of Backgammon or Slap
At the beginning of the game, an ad appears that you can skip if you want (Skip Ad!).
Next, there is an options button (cogwheel) that allows you to define whether you want to play with the full screen and also adjust the sound, both of the game and of the background music.
It will play with the black pieces. White belongs to his opponent, the computer.
Click to rotate the two dice. You will be able to move as many squares (columns) on the board as the value of each die.

After clicking on the dice, the game shows which stones you can throw and where.
If the dice have repeated numbers, you can make four moves instead of two.
The objective is to take all your pieces to the other end of the board, at the bottom right and get all the pieces to come out of the board to the outside, where there is a rectangle.
In the moves you take, you can choose to place a (black) stone on top of an opponent's stone that will be blocked, and cannot move. For it to be blocked, the white stone must be alone in the column.
You cannot hold an opponent's piece that is holding your own, and if there is more than one opponent's piece in a column, you cannot move there. Instead, a column that has two or more pieces of its own, the opponent cannot move to that column.

To play it is necessary to define the objective of each action, that is, if you are going to move to a free column, if you are going to place more than one piece of yours in the same column, or if you are going to block any piece of your opponent.
