How to play Dariabandha
As the attacker, cross every guarded line and make it back home; as the defender, stall them out.
Slipping past a guard by a hair's width while defending your own line feels like a tightrope walk the whole match through.
- Attacker: move Down, Up, or Sideways to dodge the line guards
- Defender: shift one guard left or right along their line each turn
💡 Attacker: shift sideways before attempting a crossing if the guard is sitting right on your column.
💡 Defender: stay centered on your line rather than drifting to one edge, so you can react to either dodge direction in time.
