1. Gol-Skuish is played on a circular board with seven concentric circles. The circles have 6 lines radiating from the centre, forming 43 intersections. Lines indicate permitted moves.

2. Each player selects 21 BEADs the colour of their choice.

3. BEADs are placed on all points of the 3 adjacent lines closets to the player, filling the board except for the middle space.

4. Players decide who begins the game by rolling a die.

1. In turns, each player moves 1 BEAD along the marked lines to an adjacent empty point.

2. Players capture BEADs by jumping over an opponent’s BEAD and landing on an empty space beyond, following the lines on the board.

3. Captures can be chained together if, upon jumping over an opponent's BEAD and capturing it, the player is adjacent to another BEAD with an empty space beyond it.

4. Players must capture a BEAD (or chain of BEAD captures) if the move is available.

5. Captured BEADs are removed from the board.

1. To win the game, a player must reduce their opponent to 5 BEADs.

2. A player can also win by immobilizing their opponent.

3. If neither player can capture more BEADs, the player who has the most BEADs on the board wins.
