Abstract: A strategy board game for two players comprises a game board having a square matrix of playing positions thereon, with each player having a number of player position markers equal to the number of positions in any given row, column, or diagonal of the board. Each player's markers are initially positioned along the horizontal row of the board adjacent the respective player, with each player alternatingly moving one marker to one adjacent position of the board during each turn. The object of the game is for a player to attain a straight line of markers along any one of the rows (except the starting row), columns, or diagonals of the game board. While the game superficially resembles tic-tac-toe, the rules of play are considerably different, in that each of the markers may be moved any number of times as desired by the controlling player, and may even be returned to the starting row or position if desired.
