ABSTRACT:
A board game having a game board with a generally planar upper surface and a plurality of pegs protruding generally perpendicular therefrom. The pegs are arranged in a closed geometric pattern, preferably a circle, with adjacent pegs spaced equidistant from one another. The game board is utilized in conjunction with a plurality of game pieces having a pair of generally planar opposing surfaces with a first hole and a second hole extending therethrough. The spacing between the first hole and the second hole is approximately equal to the spacing between adjacent pegs so that the game pieces can be slidably received over any pair of adjacent pegs. The game pieces further include a first and a second means for indicating value, wherein the first means for indicating value is located proximate the first hole and the second means is located proximate the second hole. One of the opposing surfaces of each game piece is preferably subdivided into a first half and a second half with a hole and means for indicating value associated with each half. A method for utilizing the game board and game pieces is further disclosed.
