Xephyr is ideally designed for three players, but can be played with any number between 2 and 6. Balance and co-operation are the ways to win in Xephyr.

Xephyr uses a dice; the latter is unusual for Fleur Designs games but it doesn't mean the element of skill is missing. The whole game is based on your skill of balance; can you get your first piece to its goal whilst keeping your second under control? If you can't then you can lose badly.
