Tumbleweed
Tumbleweed é um jogo para duas pessoas. É jogado em um tabuleiro hexagonal e com um suprimeiro suficiente de peças para empilhar.
Uma pilha pode ver um hexágono, quando eles estão conectados por uma linha reta, sem pilhas entre eles. Os jogadores se revezam colocando pilhas de seus marcadores em hexágonos que são vistos por pelo menos uma pilha amigável. A altura de cada pilha recém-colocada é igual ao número de pilhas que veem a nova pilha. É possível substituir uma pilha existente por uma nova, desde que a nova pilha seja mais alta que a anterior. Isso funciona com as pilhas do oponente (para capturar) ou com as suas próprias pilhas (para reforçar).
Antes do jogo, o anfitrião monta o tabuleiro e o convidado decide de que lado quer jogar. A configuração consiste em uma pilha de duas fichas neutras e uma ficha única inicial para cada jogador em hexágonos à escolha do anfitrião.
O jogo termina quando nenhum dos jogadores puder fazer mais movimentos ou após dois passes sucessivos. O jogador que ocupar mais hexágonos vence.

Game description
Tumbleweed is a two-player game. It is played on a hexhex board and a sufficient supply of stacked checkers.
A stack can "see" a hex, when they are connected by a straight line, with no stacks in between. The players take turns placing stacks of their tokens on hexes that are seen by at least one friendly stack. The height of every newly-placed stack equals the number of your stacks that see the new stack. Replacing an existing stack with a new stack is possible, as long as the new stack is taller than the previous one. This works with opponent stacks (to capture), or your own stacks (to reinforce).
Before the game, the host sets up the board and the guest decides which side they want to play. Setup consists of one stack of two neutral tokens in the central hex, and a single starting token for each player in hexes of the host's choosing.
The game ends when no more moves can be made by either player, or after two successive passes. The player who occupies over half the board wins.
Tumbleweed was voted Best Combinatorial 2-Player Game of 2020 on BGG.

Game end reminder
Currently the game displays a reminder when both players neither capture a stack nor affect contested, empty, or opponent's controlled hexes for total of 3 turns.
If the stale situation continues for 2 additional turns after the reminder the game ends automatically.
Passing the turn is recommended when both players cannot expand territories any further.
