This is Shakui.

The reward isn’t a score. It’s another turn with the bat.

Send it flying

Each batter gets three served attempts. Time your swing to send the ball beyond the fielders.

Go out. Get home.

Reach the far stone and return to earn three more attempts. Run while your teammates keep the ball away.

Your stick is safety

Touch a stone with your stick to rest safely. Teammates can share a stone. In this edition, approaching a stone places your stick for you.

Protect your whole team

Block throws and intercept passes. One exposed runner hit—even after a bounce—means everyone switches sides.

A catch ends the batter’s remaining attempts. Even after a bounce. Catching a runner’s hit has no penalty. Hits during open play don’t use attempts.

Keyboard: WASD or arrows to move, Space to swing or throw, R to run to the next stone. On touchscreens, use the joystick and buttons. When fielding, Space throws toward an exposed runner. Teammates play automatically.

Based on one community’s memories of Adi Andiel. Rules may differ where you played.

The field will wait

Take a breath.

Your game is paused.
