ABSTRACT:
An improved apparatus for a game, the apparatus generally comprising a game board having concentric ring paths which intersect with radial paths. The intersections represent spaces for the placement and movement of playing pieces. Each player is assigned a group of playing pieces. The playing pieces are identical in shape and are only distinguish by color wherein one player's playing pieces are of one color and the other player's playing pieces are of a different color. In addition, a sufficient number of neutral color playing pieces are also provided. To start play, all the playing pieces are placed in a grab bag. Beginning with any starting position concentric ring, players alternate, randomly drawing playing pieces from the grab bag. The first piece is placed at the starting position and the successively drawn pieces are placed one at a time around the concentric ring on successive spaces either clockwise or counter-clockwise from the starting position. When all the playing pieces have been drawn and placed on the board, the players in turn, move their playing pieces towards the designated finishing spaces near the center of the board.
