ABSTRACT:
A novel chess or checker game board has a playing field comprising a series of adjacent rotatable strips each of which bears a row of alternatively colored spaces on the top and bottom surfaces. The strips of the board have an initial position in which the spaces thereon form a bilaterally colored pattern corresponding to a checker or chess board. The strips and playing pieces are provided with cooperable releasable attaching structure to secure the pieces thereon. Each player may move a piece in the manner of a normal checker or chess game or may rotate a strip 180.degree. before a playing piece is moved so that the relationship of the playing pieces on the board row are changed from the relationship produced by the previous move of the opposing player, thus providing a novel, challenging and interesting game having continuously changing situations between the game playing pieces.
