When the play surface in the closed position to simulate a bag or a backpack, the inner and outer surfaces are held together in a such configuration by hook and loop fasteners such as Velcro®, or other fastening means. Self-adhering play pieces are preferably pre-made to create a theme or story. In other embodiments, the user can create individualized play pieces with supplied fabric stock, and in other embodiments, specific game backgrounds can be added to allow playing of a transportable game. In one embodiment, several backpacks or bags can be interconnected to form a large play surface when unfolded into the open position.
