Barrier

This game is played on an empty NxN square board.

Setup

Each player drops his stone on an empty cell.

Turns

At each turn, each player must move his stone.
The stone moves similar to a chess Knight, but in two steps rather than one. First it moves one (two) cell(s) in one direction, then two (one) cell(s) orthogonally (hence each player has two moves per turn).

Quote: Nothing you've ever known is true. Nor nothing you've ever loved. You don't know if there's a Hell below you, or a Heaven above. The Truth, my friend, is somewhere out there, just waiting to be released. But before you embark on your great endeavor, know that you'll never return to peace.
