ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a foldable game board with colored squares on a playing surface. Each square is colored with one of nine different colors. The game board is arranged for play by two to four players each having a home strip. The home strip has numbered scoring squares along all four sides of the playing surface. Four sets of two player's marker and a deck of nine colored cards are supplied to each player. Each card of a deck is distinguishably colored with one of the nine different colors corresponding to the colored squares. Movement of the markers to particularly colored squares are determined by the color of cards drawn from decks of nine cards. Movement of the playing pieces is omnidirectional and the object of the game is that an "it" player tries to tag the other players by moving into a square adjacent to one occupied by another player.
