From manufacturer: "It takes a fascinating game to live on for 3,000 years, and to have devotees in nations all over the world. Such a game is OH-WAH-REE, now available in a special edition to suit modern tastes. Like chess and other historic games, it appeals to players of all ages. Children love it as a fast-moving game of pebble and pit action and capture; adults, playing in another strategic and intellectual dimension, enjoy it as an exercise in long-range planning and execution. OH-WAY-REE can be played by two, three, or four players. The contoured fold-away board, pebbles, markers, and instruction folder go into a compact slipcase that fits easily on any bookshelf."
