Abstract: Disclosed herein is a checkers board game for two players which includes a checker game board consisting of twelve rows of twelve alternate playing and non-playing squares of contrasting colors. Each board square is marked with two numbers, one number facing each of the two players. Each player is provided with one set of 30 game pieces including one piece that is marked with the number 12. The only difference between the game pieces of each player is their color so as to distinguish the pieces of one player from those of the other. The game is played in a conventional matter somewhat like the traditional game of checkers with the players moving forward, jumping, removing the jumped piece and becoming a king. Points are scored and reported on a score card. The score card is configured similar to the game board but every other number is omitted.
