Game board with initial setup for Indigo, a modern (2012) game. Early game boards came in a variety of shapes (for example, senet's game board was made of three parallel rows, while mehen's was based on a spiral form); a quadrilateral (square) shape with grids became common only later, with the emergence of strategy games.

Players then alternate turns, placing a stone on an empty cell on the board. Players may pass; the game is over when both players pass. [2]
