This game board of Kings & Quadraphages™ does not include the game pieces. Horizontal, vertical, and diagonal movement, which is the basis of many mathematical and scientific concepts, is practiced in this simple yet challenging entrapment game. In addition, students engage in dynamic use of counting skills while exploring deductive reasoning and the topology of open and closed regions. Students take turns placing a chip (referred to as a square-eating Quadraphage) on a grid-type gameboard and moving their pawn (the King) to entrap the opposing King.
