==Setup==
Put down a 4x8 grid. Leave the top row of the grid empty. Mix all 45 pyramids into a hat. Draw one piece at a time and place it in the first space of the second row, then the next space, then the next, until that row is filled. Add 8 more rows of 5 pieces below the first (for 9 total rows of pyramids), neatly aligned so they also form 5 columns. This grid of 45 pyramids, along with the ‘invisible’ first row (which should be the farthest from you), creates the playing area of 50 total spaces. Pieces should not physically touch – using two 5×5 Looney Labs volcano boards stacked one above the other works incredibly well as a playing surface, however a plain table is fine too. HERE is a board designed by Mike Smith ©2017. When setting up, follow these two rules:

When setting up, follow these two rules:
 
# If at any time drawing pieces you pull the same exact piece – color and size – consecutively, redraw the repeated piece until it’s different.
# As you draw the last two pieces for each row, ensure each row contains at least one of each sized piece or redraw until it does.
