Abstract:
A game in which two players each attempt to occupy more spaces on a grid with their assigned playing tokens and also attempt to move a playing token to a center space on the grid. The grid, which may be mounted or printed on a board, includes four concentrically aligned circles and four perpendicularly aligned main connectors. Extending radially from the outer most circle to the inner most circle and from the outer most circle to the inner intermediate circle are intermediate and short segments, respectively. Intersections, called spaces, are formed where the main connectors and the segments intersect the circles. The object of the game is for the players to occupy the greatest number of spaces by adding new tokens or moving previously played tokens in a prescribed manner. Some moves result in the player's token being switched or replaced by a token owned by opposing player. The game ends when a player is unable to place a token on a space or when a player advances a token into the board's center space.

Claim (Index 1):
A game apparatus, comprising:\n a. a planar board with grid comprising an outer most circle, an inner most circle, and two intermediate circles located between said outer most circle and said inner most circle, said four circles being concentrically aligned with a common center axis, said grid includes two perpendicularly aligned diameter segments that intersect at said center axis, said diameter segments form main connectors that extend radially from said center axis to said outer most circle and extending across said inner most circle and said intermediate circles, said board includes four intermediate segments aligned with said center axis and extend radially between said outer most circle to said inner most center, said grid also includes eight short segments aligned with said center axis and extend radially between said outer most circle and said intermediate circle adjacent to said inner most circle, said grid include spaces formed at locations where said diameter segments, said intermediate segments and said short segments intersect with said outer most circle, said inner most circle, and said intermediate circles; and b. at least two sets of uniquely identifiable tokens adapted to be placed over one said space on said board.
