Abstract
A board game comprises a main board marked into squares. Ten playing pieces in the form of boards or tiles divided into quadrants have a number or symbol printed in each square. The pieces are placed on the board so that matching edges are placed together. The pieces may be overlapped provided the tile remains within the confines of the board. To solve the puzzle the pieces must be placed on the board so that the total of the numbers on each side of the board is 25.
