digit. In order to create a game board with eight rows she gathered egg
trays and adhere them together. In addition, 24 egg shells are also
gathered to serve as a checker chip and these are designed with different

each even (white) square on board has mathematical symbol. The goal of
by 2 to 10 players that will be divided into two group. The goal of the game
is to score more points than the opponent’s group by capturing their egg
shell. The idea behind capturing the opponent’s egg shell is to deliberately
go for a multiplication equation that placed in the diagonal pattern of egg
tray or the game board and it is intended to solve by the player who make a
move, and the solution they come up with will earn them points that they
will write in their white board using the marker. The white board of the
game is designed with 1-10 multiplication table that will help players to
