Lane

A card game about pushing lanes. In this game you place, push, and pick cards to get points.

How to Play

A turn consists of one of placing, pushing, or picking up a card.

• To place a card
  •  Select the card from your hand using left and right and press A to choose the card.
  • A valid placement involves pushing into a card already on the board, select a position next to a card, hold A and hold a direction. To confirm this placement release A while holding the direction.
• To push a card
  • Press L to enter push mode.
  • A valid push must change the board.
  • Select which of your own cards you want to push and hold A and the direction you want to push it in, then release A while holding the direction.
• To pick a card
  • Press R to enter pick mode.
  • Select one of your own cards and press A

After taking your turn, the other player has a turn. There are some effects that can happen after taking a turn. Cards surrounded on two opposite sides by opponent cards are returned to the hand.

A helpful hint is that the controls in the embedded web version can be remapped by pressing escape.

How to Win

Winning is when you have 4 cards next to the red starting cards. Note that this is 4 different cards, a card next to two of the starting cards counts as one
