This Chinese Checkers set has a round board made of solid hardwood. The board is about 12 inches across (11.5 in. in the product name) and is made from Malaysian oak. Because the wood is solid, the board is substantial and heavy.
The set comes with glass marbles in six bright colors and a storage bag. It plays with 2 to 6 players. The game involves critical thinking, problem-solving and spatial awareness.
Chinese Checkers was invented in America around 1884 by Dr. George Howard Monks, a Harvard Medical School thoracic surgeon. This wooden version suits a coffee table or game room.
