Description

The game consists of two game boards, five big and many smaller ceramic cones. One board is the actual playing field. The central nine spaces hold small cones at the beginning. The active player rolls the five big cones and places them on the second board. Upright cones go in the center, the other cones are go around it, depending on where their tip pointed after rolling. The player then turns the board into the desired alignment and makes their move. All pieces have to remain connected at least diagonally. A piece moves into the direction of the cone tip, jumping over all other connected pieces in front of it (like in Reinhold Wittig's old game Wabanti, which inspired the name). An upright cone means placing a new cone in the central area, a second upright cone means removing a piece anywhere. The winner is the first player who has a piece leave the game board on their side.
