A placement game with a goal of highest score. Played on a checker board, or on a drawn square grid. Can easily be adapted to other grids. To Play, first decide which scoring method to use. (see below) Then players alternate, optionally either placing one of their pieces onto an empty light square on the checker board, or passing. The game ends when both players pass consecutively. Scoring Methods: (choose 1 of these 3 methods before you begin the game) 1. Score 1 point for each dark square next to exactly 2 of your own pieces orthogonally. 2. Score 1 point for each empty light square next to exactly 2 of your own pieces diagonally. 3. Score by adding together the scores for both method 1. and 2. For a longer game, play on any of the squares, and score the intersections and/or empty squares.
