Just now, we have discussed the Phone Security – Theft Protection App, now let’s pay attention to the Abalone App. This is the game when I was very young, I played a lot with my friends.But at that point, most people did not have a computer, and we can play it with up to six people.However, time has been changed a lot since computer has invaded every family.

Now GameStudio9 has created the Abalone Free Application, which allows to play the game right at your Palm with an Apple device.The free Abalone App for iPad, iPod Touch and iPhone is a two-player strategy board game, you need to push six of the opponent’s marbles off the edge.

Here is the rules:

• You must push the Marbles into an open space (for example: not blocked by a marble of either colour).
• They can only push if the pushing line has more marbles than the pushed line (three can push two or one; two can push one).
• A player can push their opponent’s marbles which are in an adjacent space to their own with an in-line move only.
• The move can be either in-line (parallel to the line of marbles) or broadside (not parallel to the line of marbles).
• For each move, a player moves a line of one, two or three one space.
• Play alternates between the players one move at a time, with black moving first.
• Each player starts with 14 marbles.
• The board consists of 61 circular spaces arranged in a hexagon.
