Blue Chip

Blue Chip is played on a 8x8 square board. On each turn each player must do the next two things: 1. Pass or move one of his stones as a "runaway queen" (i.e., to the last empty cell in any direction, but not to any closer square), if and only if the stone is orthogonally adjacent to a neutral blue stone at the start of its move. 2. Pass or move a neutral blue stone as a "runaway queen", if and only if it is orthogonally adjacent to any non-neutral stone (red or white) at the start of its move. If this move leaves the stone orthogonally adjacent to a red or white stone, the same stone may move again, and so on. GOAL - A player wins when his first row is filled with stones, including at least one of his color. If neither player's first row is filled yet neither player is able to move, the last player who moved loses.
