Description
Bored with Chinese Checkers? Try Telka! Featuring a unique board design with a central Danger Territory where pieces can be captured, Telka adds depth to the classic formula of Halma and Chinese Checkers. No more logjams in the center of the board!
And be sure to try it with four players in teams of two, as Telka's inventor, George S. Parker, recommended after publishing it in 1891.
NOTE: Due to The Game Crafter discontinuing their boxes, this game is now published without a box.
