Divide those 32 pieces to the players in either way below; Half & Half: Put all the clear pieces in the bag and pick them up in order so that all the players have 4 clear pieces each.

(In this case, the number of clear and normal pieces at hand are at random.) Play as normal Goita with those divided pieces. —description from the publisher
