Abstract
A game apparatus having a board, pieces, pegs and cubes. The board has a grid of spaces and several columns of holes. A margin separates the spaces from the edge of the board. One column of holes occupies the grid of spaces. The other columns occupy the margin. The pieces have holes and are designed for movement on the spaces. One of the pegs is moved between the holes in the spaces and the holes in the pieces. The other pegs are moved between the holes in the margin. The players take turns making plays. Each play ends with the move of a peg. The players take turns being the offense. In appropriate situations, the defensive player rolls a pair of cubes. If one or more symbols on the faces of the cubes are positive, the defense moves a peg from a hole in a space or a piece to another piece or another hole in a space. The first player unable to move a peg at the end of their turn loses the game.
