ABSTRACT:
A game is disclosed which is played by two opposing players disposed on opposite sides of a vertically disposed, opaque game board; said board being formed with a plurality of holes therein, and pegs inserted in the holes. Each player rests one U-shaped token member on a peg without disclosing the location of the token member to the other player, and in turn each player removes pegs in an effort to cause the opposing player's token member to drop from the board thereby winning the game. The construction permits the U-shaped token member to fall onto a lower peg disposed directly below the removed peg position, thus frustrating attempts of the opposing player to cause the peg to fall clear of the board. In a preferred embodiment the game is a free standing vertically upright unit.
