Gameplay: A negative and positive player fight for control of the hexes. Decide which team is which. (By choice or rolling.) The negative player goes first.

On a player’s turn, they roll the sign die (or flip the coin) and the number die. The sign die determines negative (1,2,3) or positive (4,5,6). The number die gives you the value, so a 4-6 is +6, a 2-6 is -6.

With your number you can either add a new hexagon, or multiply an old one. Adding a new value just means filling in that value in any open space.

Multiplying a hexagon means copying the hexagon that many times. So a hexagon of 4, multiplied 3, becomes a line of three 4s by adding two new 4s. Multiplying by a negative number also flips the value. So a stack of +4 times -3 becomes three stacks of -4 by changing the first 4 to -4 and adding two -4s. You can only multiply in a straight line.

Play continues until the board is filled. Each team adds up their values, then adds up the totals. If the total is negative, the negative player wins; positive and the
