ABSTRACT:
A backgammon game is disclosed which accomodates simultaneously two to four players at 10 pieces, men or stones per player, and which gameboard is comprised of four quadrents or tables with seven playing points per table. The 10 pieces in a set are similarly colored, and each set is of a color different from each other set. All the points in a particular quadrant are similarly colored, and the color of the points in each particular quadrant differ from the color in each other quadrant. The color of the points in each quadrant corresponds to the color of the pieces in one of the sets. The backgammon game permits multiple play by four players without a cumbersome board structure and without an unwieldly number of stones per player.
