The main game board actually has slight ridges to separate the squares in it’s grid, making it easy to play your piece plus make it safe when a table is slightly bumped. Simply play a piece of your color to connect to the corner of any of your pieces on the board… yes, you only connect diagonally, not edge to edge!
Reminds me a bit of the cycle battle in Tron:)
