Now, alternating turns and moving quickly, each player takes any pyramid and, ''preserving its orientation,'' places it into anya random space on the board. (Alternating players is simply the fastest way to accomplish placement. If it is more convenient for one player to do the entire setup in advance, that's fine.) Once the board is full, play can begin.
 
==Play==
Select a player to go first. That player selects any square on the edge of the board to place his token in. To do this, he picks up the pyramid in the square and, ''preserving its orientation,'' places it on the table in front of his opponent. Then he places his token in the empty square.
 
The next player looks at the pyramid in front of her: she must place her token in a square that matches this pyramid in either color or orientation. So if the pyramid placed in front of her is a {{PL|::SPE|crimson|5em}}, she must place her token in a square occupied by a red pyramid or a pyramid pointing East. She follows the same procedure as above for placing her token: carefully remove the existing pyramid, place it in on the table front of her opponent with its orientation unchanged, and finally place her token in the vacated space.
 
The game continues like this until one plyaer has successfully formed an L shape or a straight line. That player wins! Alternately, a player can win if her opponent, on his turn, has no legal placement available.
