アマロン (Amaron) is a simplified Shogi style game from Japan, using a 4 x 6 grid. The two players move their hieroglyph pieces as indicated, trying to capture their opponent's Eye Of Horus piece to win.
To assist them, there are black cubes called Amaron (meaning Energy) they can collect and spend to get extra turns. But if a player gets three Amaron, they explode and are sent to Hell. So another player option is to curse the opponent to give them a cube, to make them explode and lose.
The game is untended to be played rapidly and can finish in just a minute. The game has a cloth board, branded wood pieces, and five black Amaron cubes.
