Abstract:

The board game consists of a central, geometrically shaped goal area with rectangular playing surfaces extending from each side of the goal area. A single tortuous path extends outwardly from the center along each of the rectangular playing surfaces. The shapes of the spaces that comprise the tortuous path are identical to the shape of the goal area. The game also utilizes multi-sided dice having faces which correspond in shape to the shape of the goal area. The playing pieces used in the game are similarly shaped. The game board is hingedly constructed so that when not in use, it can be folded into a three-dimensional box that is then used to store the playing pieces and dice. The game also includes a cover for the folded box. The cover is used during the play of the game to shake and roll the dice.
