The players call out coordinates and matching peg colors, with black pegs used when a chosen point lies on a dividing line. Scoring depends on the number of pegs used, with extra points awarded when a peg color runs out; roles reverse after each set of games, and the highest total wins. Three game levels increase complexity, culminating in unrestricted line shaping with additional constraints.",{"@graph":69,"@context":122},[70,84,105],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":53,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/lifestyle/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/zone-x-rules/134676/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/zone-x-rules/134676.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"Valentina","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-09-21","2026-08-21",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":24},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",{"@type":106,"mainEntity":107},"FAQPage",[108,114,118],{"name":109,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":111},"How do Zone Maker and Zone Breaker work together during play?","Question",{"text":112,"@type":113},"The Zone Maker marks a secret target point within colored zones on the marker grid, then draws dividing lines.

intriguing game which develops perceptiveskills and powers of concentration for twoplayers.  \nCONTENTS  \n1Search Board(for Pegs)  \n1 Marker Grid(for Marker and Eraser)  \n62 Pegs approx.(12 each of 5 colours)and2 white  \n1 Marker  \n1 Eraser  \nTO START  \nThe Zone Maker takes the marker grid,markerand eraser.The Zone Breaker takes thesearchboard and the pegs.  \nOBJECT OF GAME  \nTwo Players-Zone Maker and Zone BreakerThe Zone Breaker,using the minimumnumber of pegs on his searchboard,finds thetarget point set by the Zone Maker on hismarker grid.  \nGAME NO.1(Straight Lines)  \nPlay this version first to develop your skillbefore tackling version 2 or 3.  \nMethod of play  \nThe Zone Maker secretly marks a target pointon his Marker grid(point Z in Diagram 1)ref.  \nG9.He then draws two straight lines whichare continued to the edge of the grid (X and Yin Diagram 1)which intersect his target pointZ.(We suggest a ruler be used to make sureyour lines are straight.)  \nDiagram No.1.  \nThe Zone Maker now writes on his marker gridR.B.G.Y.to represent the(red,blue,green,yellow)created by the intersecting lines.(UseMarker provided.)  \nNote:The red zone must always be oppositethe blue zone.The challenge is now set.  \n# FINDING THE TARGET ZONE\n\nThe Zone Breaker now has to find the targetpoint (ref G9)set by the Zone Maker on hismarker grid.The Zone Breaker now refers tohis searchboard and calls out a hole reference  \ne.g.B6.The Zone Maker now refers to hismarker grid,finds the point(which is in thered zone)and tells the Zone Breaker to place ared peg in the corresponding hole on hissearchboard.The Zone Breaker places the pegand then calls out another reference hole e.g.L10.The Zone Maker again refers to hismarker grid and tells the Zone Breaker toplace a blue peg in his searchboard.For eachfurther attempt the Zone Maker tells the ZoneBreaker the appropriate colour of peg to placein his searchboard according to the colourzones on the marker grid*.This continuesuntil the Zone Breaker finds the target point,when a white peg is used.This game thenfinishes.  \nWhenever the Zone Breaker selects a pointthat is on one of the lines dividing the zonesmade by the Zone Maker the Zone Maker hasto say that this point is on a line.The ZoneBreaker then places a black peg in hissearchboard in that hole.  \n*Note:If the intersect lines do come close tobut do not touch a point the appropriatecolour is called e.g.K2 is green,K3 is blue.  \nSCORING-Agree how many games you willplay  \nThe Zone Maker's score is found by totallingthe number of pegs(one point per peg)thathave been used in finding his target point.Ifthe Zone Breaker runs out of any one colour ofpeg in his attempts to find the target point afurther 10 points are claimed by the ZoneMaker.  \nAfter the game the roles of the two players arereversed,and the new Zone Maker now has  \nthe opportunity of setting a fresh target pointthat he thinks his opponent will havedifficulty in finding.After an equal number ofgames have been played the player with themost points is the winner.  \nGAME NO.2(Curved LInes)  \nAfter a number of games,skill and techniquewill have been acquired by both players.Theycan then investigate the more exciting gameusing curved lines.The rules and method ofplay and scoring are as in Game No.1.Theproblems for the Zone Breaker in finding thetarget point will usually take a greater numberof attempts.The 4 zones now created by theskillful Zone Maker will be complex in shape.See diagram No.2.  \nDiagram No.2.  \nGAME NO.3  \nOnly to be played by the most perceptive ZoneBreaker and skilled Zone Maker.Method ofplay and scoring as in Games 1 and 2.The full value and excitement of Zone X isnow revealed because of the one exception tothe rules that Game 3 offers.Now the ZoneMaker may mark lines and create the zones onhis marker grid to any shape or form that herequires.  \nWe suggest that the following rules areadhered to:  \n1 The line must not loop itself.  \n2 Each colour zone must have a minimum of2 markable ","cbCaimrX0haQA0Sf","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimrX0haQA0Sf","pdf",709153,"English","# Contents\n## Game setup and
