Across the Board is designed for kindergarten, first, and second grade students. Across the Board can be used in a classroom, with a teacher or older student monitoring play, or can be played at home. In a school setting, it is recommended more than one game board be used to accommodate more than four players. The design of Across the Board permits it to be used again and again!

This game have two versions: adults/kids In the kids version the aim of the game is to get to the other side of the board. In the adult version the version is to be the first to get there!
