An Icehouse game almost, but not quite, entirely unlike Backgammon.

All pieces begin off the board. The object is to enter your pieces on your side of the board, move them across to the opponent’s side, and score points by moving them off the board on the other side faster than your opponent.

You need two sets (stashes) of 15 Icehouse pyramids in different colors, a chessboard and two four-sided dice.
