ABSTRACT:
The square game board has a peripheral pattern of alternating playing squares and non-playing squares in a checker board pattern together with a central four-sided ring of playing squares surrounding a central-most non-playing area. Die is provided to chance control the number of moves and forward or backward direction of moves in the peripheral area and/or the number of moves in and the peripheral direction within the ring, only if an opponent's piece cannot be jumped, which jumping is mandatory. Occupation of the four corners of the ring will permit removal of any pieces from the players back row, with the object being to remove all of your pieces or occupy only the four corners of the ring.
