ABSTRACT:
Each square of a chessboard is centrally provided with a magnet, and each chess and/or draughts piece is provided with a permanent magnet. Because of the presence of the magnets, each piece is automatically centered in the square, toward which it is moved, without requiring any operation of "settling" and of possible taking back of the piece. Furthermore, each piece is secured against shocks or sudden movements of the chessboard.
