Board game comprising increasing and manipulating magnetic forces with magnetic playing pieces

A board game comprising:

• a game board defined by a top surface upon which the game is played and a grid comprising an array of spaces;
• a plurality of pillars positioned on the top surface of the game board, each pillar comprising a predetermined height and a pillar magnet releasably positioned on a top surface of the pillar;
• a plurality of figurines, each figurine comprising a figurine magnet attached to a top surface of the figurine, wherein each figurine is configured to move about the game board grid;
• wherein each figurine attracts magnets from pillars of different heights, based on the a grade, size, and shape of the pillar magnets and on a ferromagnetic composition of each figurine.

• a game board defined by a top surface upon which the game is played and a grid comprising an array of spaces;
• a plurality of pillars positioned on the top surface of the game board, each pillar comprising a predetermined height and a pillar magnet, wherein each pillar magnet is positioned within a case releasably positioned on a top surface of the pillar;
• a plurality of figurines, each figurine comprising a figurine magnet attached to a top surface of the figurine, wherein each figurine is configured to move about a game board grid;
• wherein each figurine attracts pillar magnets from pillars of different heights, based on the composition and combined weight of each pillar magnet and case, as well as the composition of the pillar as determined by a degree of surface tension that exists between the pillar magnet and pillar.
