Object: The object of the game is to arrange a pattern of tokens so that every token forms part of at least one unbroken line across the board. Tokens can slide freely along the nw-se diagonal; two diagonally adjacent tokens can merge into an empty square to the upper right and, conversely, one token can divide to fill two empty squares to the lower left.
 
The first board is a tutorial which demonstrates the moves and win-conditions.
 
Binette is adapted from a form of peg-solitaire, probably French in origin, played by the Cajun people of Louisiana.
