Mother of nine, the train game

The game "Umm Tis'a" (or the train) is a traditional board game for two players that requires strategic thinking. Each player aims to arrange three of their pieces on a horizontal or vertical line on the board, allowing them to take one of the opponent's pieces. The player wins either by preventing the opponent from making any legal move or by reducing the number of their pieces to only two, making them unable to form winning lines.
