Dating back to 1400BC from the Roman Empire, Nine
Men's Morris is one of the earliest board games in
recorded history. The board consists of an inner
square, a middle square and an outer square, with 8
spots evenly distributed on each of the squares,
making a total of 24 spots. Each player will be given
a set of 9 pieces in black or white color. The pieces
can be placed onto the spots on the board and can be
moved among the spots. The player who has fewer than 3
pieces left or has been immobilized loses the game.

When the game starts, the player holding white pieces
can click any empty spot to place a piece onto it.
Then the player with black pieces will follow suit,
and the two sides take turns to continue the process.
When 3 pieces of the same color form a horizontal or
vertical line, a mill appears. The player who forms a
mill can remove one of the opponent pieces from the
board. Once removed, those pieces cannot be placed
onto the board again. Note that pieces of a formed
mill cannot be removed unless no other pieces are left
