Breakthrough

Breakthrough was designed by William Daniel 'Dan' Troyka in 2000 and originally played on a 7x7 board. After the size of the board was changed, it won the 2001 8x8 Game Design Competition, sponsored by About Board Games, Abstract Games Magazine and the Strategy Gaming Society. The game is simple but addictive -- the goal is to try to get one of your pieces to the other side of the board before your opponent does the same. For 2 players.
