Looks like a rockgame and not a boardgame.
Don’t always post but love your pings. Thank you.

The search for the lost Pictish-era monastery in the Old Deer area has been ongoing for several years. We now know the origin of Pict-ionery.

Was there any evidence of several species of small furry animals gathered together and grooving in the cave?

Interesting find. I looked up how to play this game, never heard of it before, cross between chess and checkers. Thanks for the share.

Oh, yeah. That’s a PlayStation, Legacy Edition.

That thing looks ancient, like a thousand years old or something!
Ebay and Amazon have lots of nice new ones.
Clean too.
And with most of the parts.
