*Place the other 16 pyramids in a draw-bag.
*Each side of the grid now has a designated color. Every time you draw a pyramid, you must place it such that it points toward its own color's side. (So all yellow pyramids must be placed such that they point west, toward the yellow side, and all blue pyramids must be placed pointing north.)
*It is only the initial placement that is restricted like this; pyramids already on the board will later be rotated in other directions, which is fine.
*As in the multiplayer games, each pyramid pointing toward you at the end of the game counts for one point.
