Abstract: A novel board game is provided that allows individuals to play a game that has simple rules, is resolved quickly, and is still enjoyable. The present board game comprises two sets of opposing game pieces, a checkerboard, and a unique deck of forty-seven cards. The players take opposing turns drawing a card and then moving one of their game pieces in one of the cardinal directions a number of squares equal to the number drawn. Players may also draw a “jump” card, which allows that player to vault one of their pieces over an opposing piece. Players get one point for reaching their opponent's back row and another point for completely surrounding one of their opponent's game pieces, thereby removing that piece from the board. The game is over when one player totals five points.
