Watch “Double the challenge with this vintage 2-player pattern game "Check-Lines.",” a how-to-play guide for Check Lines on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by NewVenture Games on YouTube:

The British game company "Tri-ang" was a major player in the toy industry for over a century. Their final round in the 1970s included this game, rendered in plastic and pegs. Check-Lines takes the three-in-a-row challenge to a new level in two ways. First is the unique configuration of the board points and lines. Second, each player is attempting to form TWO rows of three with one peg common to both rows. Fast and fun and an excellent choice for kids bored with tic-tac-toe!
