The present invention relates to a traditional board game, Steal the Bacon activity and the integration of both elements. The traditional game has two lines of players facing each other and when their assigned number is called, they run to steal the bacon and bring it home. To replicate the traditional game into a board game; we designed Ref cards which are used in leu of a live referee calling out numbers. To simulate 2 people running to steal the bacon and bring it home, we had each player roll a different color die at the same exact time. The player with the largest number rolled moved the number of spaces rolled on his/her dice. This pattern repeats (rolling the dice) until a player steals the bacon and tried bringing it back to home.

The game consists of a planar game board (10), a series of vertically extended pegs (18) along a track, and magnetic game pieces (20) that freely slide down pegs (18). Each player selects a plurality of game pieces (20) of one color to differentiate from other players' game pieces (20). The object of the game is to be the first player to move all of his game pieces (20) from start (14) to finish (16). Players, in turn, roll dice, a chance device, and move game pieces (20) as indicated. Players' magnetic game pieces (20) interact in exciting and unexpected ways. A game piece (20) landing on a peg (18) above another game piece (20) will either attract and capture, or repel and levitate, depending on their relative magnetic orientations, another element of chance. When a game piece lands on particular pegs (18) or tiles (12), the player draws a random card, another element of chance, which directs surprise moves such as forward, backward or flipping.

A challenge cribbage game comprising a cribbage board having at least two parallel player routes of 122 player holes along a path from a start position to a finish position, a single player hole at the finish position, and a plurality of challenge holes adjacent specific player holes along the parallel routes; providing a standard deck of cribbage playing cards; at least two pairs of matching player pegs and at least six additional challenge pegs; a list of challenge conditions, each corresponding to a challenge peg; placing each pair of matching player pegs in the first two holes of each player route; placing each challenge peg in a selected challenge holes; commencing game play consistent with the rules of cribbage; and varying game play from by following the directions of each challenge each time a player peg lands in a player hole adjacent a challenge hole containing a challenge peg.
