Boloko is a backgammon variant played on a linear track that folds back on itself to form a 5x5 grid, with walls defining the corridor. Each player starts with ten pieces, with two pieces on each of the five spaces closest to their end of the board.
On a turn, a player rolls two six-sided dice, then uses the numbers rolled to move forward one or more pieces; if you roll doubles, you receive double movement, as if you had rolled four of that number. If you roll a 1, you can move a piece forward on the track like normal or move it over an adjacent wall so long as it moves toward the end of your track. If you land a piece on a lone opponent's piece, that piece is pinned until you move all of your pieces off of it.
If all of your pieces form a single connected group, with part of that group on the final space on your end of the track, you win.
