A 5 x 5 grid with dice-sized squares. A player may not have the same color as another player. If playing with two players, you may choose to assign two colors to each player. Peacefully choose someone to go first. This player rolls the Seed and fills the center square of the grid with it.
All players roll their dice, producing rolls for the first round of play.
On your turn, place one of your rolled dice on the grid. The square you fill must be adjacent to at least one other filled square. Adjacent - A square that shares a complete side with another square is adjacent to that square. Squares that only share a corner are not adjacent. The die you place must be showing one more or one less pip than those displayed on all dice in adjacent squares.
