Quahuru: An original dice strategy board game

Quahuru is a two-player, dice-based, race-and-blockade game played on a six-spoked wheel. Bring your pieces to goals that they can be saved from, while also using the same pieces to block your opponent en route. Part of the game is developing a sense of tempo for when to leave a piece on the board as part of a block and when to race it to goal and bank it. A good sense for probability is also important. Backgammon players will find this game somewhat familiar (saving, blot exposure, good use of dice), but it's different in a lot of ways -- saving works differently, and pieces aren't all the same.

The computer opponent is a strong neural net. There's a tutorial and hint mode for easy learning. Variance is high per game, so it's built to be played as a match over several games scored on total margin. You can play in the browser or as a free Android app; no ads, no data collected.

This is a hobby project I've been working on for a while, and I'd love to hear what people think of it!
