The 11th Hour Hints
Rules
1 of 7: First of all, note that you're playing against Stauf.
2 of 7: Each of you is trying to get the mouse to your own goal.
3 of 7: Your goal is the arch on the right side of the screen; Stauf's is the one on the left.
4 of 7: You move by inserting a piece (it's the one floating off the board) into one of the rows on the board.
5 of 7: You can only put a piece into the second row from each of the four edges.
6 of 7: When you insert a piece (you can put it in either edge of a row, as long as you're not just undoing Stauf's move), all of the other pieces will slide one along the row. The piece that was on the opposite edge of the row from your move will be the piece that Stauf gets to play for his turn.
7 of 7: Once you've finished your turn, if there's a path for the mouse to move along, you can move it to any of the squares along this path.
