On subsequent turns, pieces may be moved onto one of these built up tiles, but only one level up at a time. Pieces may also be moved down any number of levels. The primary winning condition is to get one of your pieces onto level three which would normally be four tiles high as the normal game set starts with a 5 by 5 grid of level 0 tiles . If your opponent is unable to move at all, this is also a win. Instead of placing a normal tile, you may also choose to place the special dome tile on top of a spot that is already at level 3. This would prevent any player from moving onto or building up that spot again for the remainder of the game. ref cite web url http www.boardspace.net santorini english santorini rules.html title Rules for Santorini accessdate 2010 12 08 publisher BoardSpace.net ref Footnotes reflist Category Abstract strategy games board game stub sk Santorini hra zh ... more details
