What is the name of the old simplified chess-like board game that had pieces shaped like knights and kings and such and each square had arrows indicating where your piece could move? I played it at my Grandma’s house about 25 years ago and loved it. The arrows were drawn to look like they were made out of wood, if I remember right.

Originally released as Smess: the Ninny’s Chess, you were playing All the King’s Men by Parker Brothers.
