This is the classic peg solitaire strategy game with additional four pegs and a great brain teaser puzzle. According to the legend, the game of peg solitaire was invented in the 18th. Century by a French nobleman imprisoned in the Bastille. By jumping one peg over another and removing the peg which was jumped over, try to eliminate all the pegs until just 1 remains in the lower right corner. The board has 37 holes, arranged in the shape of a hexagon with 4 holes along each side. At the start, all but one hole contains a peg, and the empty hole can be anywhere but is often chosen to be the center hole. A move consists of jumping one peg over another to land in a vacant hole, and then removing the peg that was jumped over. The board comes with a matching lid.
