Abstract:
A game apparatus includes a housing defining an interior area for electronic components, a top wall of which includes a game board having squares for receiving respective game pieces. A plurality of input buttons are included on each end of the housing by which a player may enter points to be awarded to corresponding moves of game pieces, the point being incremented on respective digital displays. The game board includes a negative containment grid for receiving one or more auxiliary game pieces. Points may be scored as game pieces are moved and opposing game pieces are captured, the game pieces having predetermined high and low values. In addition, the method of use includes a dual point assignment scheme capable of varying the points assigned to the playing pieces.
