Chinese Checkers
Chinese Checkers, or Stern-Halma, is a version of Halma supporting up to six players. Parenthetically, it is neither Chinese nor is it Checkers. In many countries, it's known as Chinese Chess or China-Chess which is even less accurate and definitely shouldn't be confused with Xiangqi which is the true Chess variant from China.

Damas Chinas de estrella de David. De mis primeros juegos infantiles que obviamente queda muy desplazado al día de hoy.
