Abstract
A game including a game box, the bottom of which forms the playing field which is of checkerboard configuration having five rows and five columns of checkerboard squares. Two similar sets of playing pieces are provided with each set being distinguishingly identified from the other. Each set includes five playing pieces; two cubes, two tetrahedrons and one sphere with a flattened bottom to permit it to be positioned on the playing field. Storage sections are provided in the box adjacent to one opposing pair of ends of the box. The storage sections include a top wall having geometrically configured openings which correspond to the shapes of the playing pieces so that each opening can receive its respective playing piece. The game combines features of both chess and checkers.
