This two-player board game combines elements of Rock, Scissors, Paper, Chess, and Capture the Flag. Each player controls a number of Rock, Scissor, and Paper tokens with different movement abilities on a hexagonal board. Each type of piece captures one other type of piece but is captured by the third type. And all of them are after the enemy flags

Greg Lam, the designer, says of his game, "This is a very balanced game abstract strategy game in which all of the pieces are held in check by another type of piece. Imagine a game of Chess in which the Queen can take any piece but the pawns which can only be taken by the knights and you get the idea of what kind of machinations are involved.

There are two variations: The one flag capture variation creates tense, fast games which can end in a flash. The two flag capture variation creates complex situations with building pressure and Chess-like endgame situations. This game is very unique."
