You cannot eliminate yourself unless that is your only option. Effectively you cannot force yourself out of the game unless you have no moves left.If your path leads off the board or into another piece, you are eliminated. Importantly, if your path leads into another piece, you are both eliminated.Additionally, you can move other players’ pieces if the tile you lay creates a path for them as well. You must place a tile that moves your piece. This means that you can’t just play anywhere on the board randomly.Note that there are some caveats to this: On your turn, you play a tile in front of your piece, follow the path you’ve created for yourself (even if it curves back through multiple tiles) and then draw a new tile from the stack. These tiles comprise their hand, and look something like this: So, put the Dragon Tile on the bottom of the tile stack, and deal each player three tiles. Note each square has two notches (save the corners, which have four) and you should only choose one per token.

Next, set out the board and have each player put their token of choice on one of the outside notches, such that your board looks something like this:
