Thnx for asking. Play session is up to an hour long (and that may be too long), may work better at 30 minutes. Wanted an visual reminder of time passing juxtaposed w/ the permanence and stillness of stones.
Wanted to build something even simpler than Pente, but w/ a zen like idle quality. Also wanted a physical game, but w/ playing pieces (stones, in this instance) players could find in nature, as a way to both be connected to nature, and see the inherent beauty in it as well. Rock on ;-)

I'm not sure I understand the function of the hourglass. Is the play session an hour long? Or is a turn an hour long? Or... something else?
