A game apparatus includes a first total number of playing-pieces and an article of manufacture including: a grid structure which is sufficiently flexible so as to be substantially conformable to a surface of a substrate on which the grid structure is disposable; apertures in the grid structure exposing corresponding portions of the surface of the substrate on which the grid structure is disposable; areas of the apertures being sized to accommodate corresponding playing-pieces of a game; and a second total number of the apertures being sufficient to accommodate the first total number of the playing-pieces.

The present invention is a game that relies on the interactions of magnetic fields to test the skills of a player or players, and more specifically a game device which relies upon the characteristic of magnets in which like poles between two magnets form a mutual field of repulsion whereas opposing poles of the same magnets form a field of attraction.
