here's another vintage boardgame that toxic used to play ~
it's called pathfinder from milton bradley ~
not unlike battleship which i posted the other day, you are trying to find your opponent's pawn on a hidden board maze ~
a partition stands between you both & he's trying to find you first too ~
build your maze using the colored chip pieces & then you move your player piece along as you seek out the small hidden pawn ~
this game is actually based on the old david jansen tv show, the fugitive ~
