Abstract:

A game of strategy includes a plurality of game pieces that are dividable into smaller game pieces. The game pieces initially comprise some in a first color and some in a second color. The game pieces are arranged in a pattern on a playing surface to define a playing field. Each of the pieces has a legal shape such that the pieces may only be divided into legal shapes. The game pieces may be one or more of divided, joined, swapped and captured during play. A process for playing a game of strategy is also described. A winning position for a game of strategy includes a contiguous chain of game pieces of a single color that extends from one or both of the left side to the right side and the top side to the bottom side of a playing field. A notation system for describing the moves of play is also described.
