A game piece for transferring an object across the surface of a board game
or the like. The game piece generally comprises a carrier body having an
upper end, a lower end, an entry opening proximate the lower end, and a
socket in communication with the entry opening. The entry opening is
sized to allow the transfer object to pass therethrough so that the
transfer object is thereafter retained within the socket. Additionally,
the socket is adapted to receive a second game piece having a similarly
configured socket and entry opening. When the entry opening of the second
game piece is pushed over the transfer object, the object is transferred
from the socket of the original game piece to the socket of the second
game piece.
