ABSTRACT:
The invention is a gameboard consisting of movable rows of squares of two alternating colors. The surface of the gameboard has the appearance of a checkerboard, with extra squares of each side of the playing field. Each player has the option of altering the playing surface between plays by moving a row of squares upon which playing pieces rest. The gameboard results in a completely different way of playing games such as checkers and chess.
