Product Description
Known by various names (including Peg Solitaire or Triangle Peg Game), this fun and challenging brain teaser has been a favorite in homes and restaurants for decades. It's a one-player game, suitable for solo fun whenever and wherever you happen to have a few spare minutes.The game consists of a triangular board with 15 pegs. Similar to other versions of Peg Solitaire or Checkers, pegs jump over one another, and they can go horizontally or diagonally. The unique triangle shape of the board adds spice to game-play and increases the challenge of solving the puzzle.
The goal is to finish with as few pegs remaining on the board as possible. If you're left with one peg, you're a genius; two pegs, above average; three or more pegs, well - try again!
Handmade in the USA, this all-wood version of Tricky Triangle is jumbo-sized. The board is almost nine inches across (at least 50% larger than typical versions), and the pegs are three quarters of an inch in diameter. Therefore, the game is easy to hold and the pegs simple to grasp and manipulate, for anyone of any age - whether new to vision loss or still developing fine motor skills.
Makes a fun coffee table piece or addition to your child's toybox. For ages 5 and up. Warning: choking hazard, small parts; not For children under 3 years old.
