==Rules== The gameboard is a square grid of 7×7 cells. A game consists of two rounds. Each round starts with the board empty, and a bag containing 49 chips in seven colours. The first player to move (Chaos) draws coloured chips at random from the bag and places each one on the board in an empty cell. For each chip that is placed, the second player (Order) may slide any chip horizontally or vertically any distance through empty cells, to rest in a currently empty cell, without jumping over any other chips already on the board. When the board becomes full, the round is finished. Order scores 1 point for each chip in any [[Palindrome|palindromic]] pattern of chip colours (e.g. ''red–green–blue–green–red'' scores 3 + 5 = 8 points; ''red–red–red'' scores 2 + 2 + 3 = 7 points) occurring either horizontally or vertically.<ref name="res_mso">''Article about Entropy'', http://www.boardability.com/game.php?id=entropy, Retrieved on 6 September 2010.</ref> The players reverse roles and play a second round. The player with the higher score as Order wins the game and draws are possible.
