== How to Play ==
Each turn, use the top pyramid on a square to '''''hop over''''' the top pyramid in an adjacent square and land in the following square. Immediately remove the top pyramid of the square that was hopped. You '''''must always''''' hop over a pyramid and '''''must always''''' remove the pyramid that is hopped. You are allowed to hop over one square in any direction, including diagonally. <u>'''''A pyramid is only allowed to hop another pyramid if it can land on top of and be directly touching a pyramid of its own size (large on large, medium on medium, small on small) or is able to land on an empty square.'''''</u> A pyramid can '''''never''''' land on top of a pyramid of a different size. Pyramids of any size can hop any size pyramid. For multiplayer and to avoid illegal actions, refrain from holding more than one pyramid at a time.
