      • Each yellow arrow must go to a destination block.
      • Each destination block can have only 1 yellow arrow.
      • After a destination block has been filled other arrow boxes can not move through it.
    • Moving
      • When you move a yellow box it moves in the direction of the arrow on its face until it runs into something (including another yellow box, a different special piece type, the edge of the level, or a destination square.
      • You can move special piece types and other yellow boxes so that when you move other yellow boxes they have something to run into to stop.
      • When a yellow arrow box lands on a destination square a flag is shown on that square.
        • That means other yellow arrow boxes & other special piece types can not move through the destination square.
  • Special piece types

    • Mustard arrow on a square – changes the direction a block will move on its next move to the direction the arrow is pointing
    • Blue block with a white double arrow – can move left or right. If it runs into an up or down arrow it can then move up or down. The square can move repeatedly.

    • Teal – can move diagonally along a path in the direction the arrows on its face shows. Can move multiple times.
