Quoridor in 60 seconds
Your goal is simple: get your pawn to the opposite side of the board before your opponent does.
Each turn you choose one action:
- Move your pawn one square (orthogonal — not diagonal), or
- Place one wall that blocks a path
Walls cannot be jumped. You walk around them. You also may never fully seal every path to a goal — at least one route must remain open for every player.
Jumping pawns
If an opponent’s pawn sits on an adjacent square, you can often jump over them (like checkers, but only if the landing square is free and not blocked by a wall).
First-match tips
- Don’t spend every wall early — save a few for late-game blocks
- Watch your own path as carefully as you watch theirs
- A wall that forces a long detour is often better than a wall that looks “aggressive”
Which WallRush Pro mode to start with
- AI — learn the rules with zero pressure
- 1v1 quick match — short competitive games
- Private room — teach a friend at your pace
- 4-player — chaos once you know the basics
