P.LI

About P.LI

P.LI is a two-player majority alignment game developed by Fouyap, played on a 6×6 grid of 36 squares. Each player commands 16 pieces, with a choice of red, black, or white.

How to Play P.LI

The goal is to be the first player to own 4 lines of pieces by majority. Each turn consists of two actions performed in order: an optional first action and a mandatory second action.

Turn Actions

• Action 1 (optional): move an opponent's piece one space diagonally to an empty space — this cannot be done to a piece sitting on a single-color line.
• Action 2 (mandatory): place one of your own pieces on any empty space on the board. There is no pause for reflection between the two actions.

Owning a Line

A valid line must be complete — six pieces aligned horizontally or vertically with no empty spaces. Owning that line means holding the majority of pieces on it. Ownership is reversible: a won line is underlined, but the marking disappears if ownership changes or the line breaks.

End of the Game

The game ends when one player owns 4 lines, or when all pieces have been placed. If the latter, the player with the most lines wins. The strategic core lies in placing pieces intelligently while disrupting the opponent's lines through diagonal movement, without surrendering your own established positions.
