Sorry! Board Game

Sorry! is a board game based on pachisi, sold by Parker Brothers.

Each player in turn draws one card from the stack and follows its instructions. A card is required for the player to move one of his pawns a certain number of spaces clockwise around the board. The player can choose any pawn he wants to use.

Two pawns cannot occupy the same square. A pawn that lands on a square occupied by a pawn of another color sends that pawn back to the nest. A pawn cannot be moved so it lands on a square already occupied by a pawn of the same color.

If a pawn lands on the start square of a slide, it immediately moves forward the three or four squares to the last square of the slide. All other pawns anywhere on the slide are then sent back to the nest. Exception: If a pawn lands on the start square of a slide marked in its own color, no action is taken.

With 4 and 10, the player can move backwards. A common strategy is to start a pawn out of the nest, and then move it backwards past the entrance to the goal, saving a long clockwise trip around the board.
