Nancy Drew: Secret of the Scarlet Hand Hints
How can I win the "bul" game?
1 of 6: Each game is different (random), so I can't give you the exact steps to follow.
2 of 6: You want to "conquer" the computer player's man (orange) with your blue one by landing on the same square he is standing on. When you capture all 4 of his men, you win. One win is all you need.
3 of 6: Two moves are given to each player per round. During your turn, you can choose to Roll and move the number of spots or Pass. Click on the Roll button to begin.
4 of 6: When you play against the computer, you control both players. Each of the players can move, by rolling the "dice," or pass.
5 of 6: Passing more often with the computer player seems to be the best strategy. If you think your next roll will capture his man, make his second turn a Pass.
6 of 6: You'll get the hang of it eventually, so keep at it until you win.
