ABSTRACT:
A game apparatus and related methods of play, comprising a playing board marked with a grid pattern, checker-like pieces to be moved upon the surface of the playing board and using varied markings upon the faces of the pieces and a deck of numbered cards. The methods of play are directed toward the encouragement of the use of arithmetic skills. To begin play, players possess numbers by randomly selecting the number cards, the players then choose an arithmetic function of addition, substraction, multiplication or division which are applied to the randomly selected numbers to determine the direction and quantity of movement of pieces on the playing board and to modify the score of each player.
