Just curious... I found both my boards, and just bought replacement pieces for them (I still have *MOST* of them, but I have a use for some, and would like spares). It often appeared in Ten Forward in ST: TNG, but it was most prominently seen in this scene from the 7th season episode "Lower Decks".

It won MENSA's Best New Mind Game award in 1992, and was made in at least 3 versions (and as a computer game). There was the 8x8 white board w/black/white/blue/red pieces, the 8x8 grey board (sold at ToysЯus) w/orange/green/purple/pale blue pieces, and a 6x6 board. The 6x6 was the version that Siler/Siler Ventures produced after the lawsuit with ToysЯus. The rules were the same, but the number of pieces was greatly reduced.

So, anyone else play?

Oh... I forgot about the boards I made in China... This is the photo I took and uploaded to Wikipedia.

Chinese high school students play Terrace on a homemade board in Yantai.

My former student, Gary, is the guy on the far right, wearing blue. He's probably 28 years old now.
