In Pegs and Jokers, players race their pegs around the track by drawing cards. The first player to get their five pegs home wins the game. You can also play with teams.

The game is also known as Jokers and Pegs and the Social Security Game. The game is similar to Parcheesi and Sorry, which were derived from the ancient Indian game of Pachisi.

Pegs and Jokers is particularly popular with RVers. It is portable and stores neatly in its box.

For ages 7 and up. 4 to 8 players.

♦ 48 wooden pegs of eight vivid colors.

Hardwood Game Paddles

Each hardwood game paddle is 12" long and 3/4" thick. They are finished with a durable urethane finish. Most of the woods are harvested here in Upstate New York from replenished forests.

You get 8 game paddles made from four different hardwoods. 2 Maple paddles, 2 Cherry paddles, 2 Sapele (mahogany) paddles, and 2 Oak paddles. Or, check the Dark Wood option if you want to get Sapele (mahogany) paddles only.

The paddles interlock with round mortise and tenon joints (see the photos).

Pegs

You get 6 pegs for each game paddle: A total of 48 painted wooden pegs of six different colors. Colors are Green, Yellow, Blue, Black, White, Cool Gray, Pink and Red.

Although 40 pegs are needed to play an 8-player game (5 pegs per player), our unique design adds a stationary peg to the top of each paddle. This design allows each player or team to choose both a hardwood paddle and a peg color. Players can easily see each color's home position even if all of a player's pegs are in play.

Size

Each paddle is 12 inches long and about 3" high. They are 3/4" thick solid hardwood. The game paddles can be connected to allow you to arrange them in a hexagon or rectangle to fit most any table.
* A 4 player game consumes 12 inches square.
* A 6 player game consumes 20 inches square.
* An 8 player game consumes 27 inches square.

Awesome quality. Great fun.
I WOULD THINK THAT THE PEGS COULD HAVE BEEN LARGER AND BETTER QUALITY AND FOR THE PRICE A SET OF CARDS WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE.

From Don: I'm sorry you are unhappy with the pegs. I've had a lot of compliments about them and they are the best I could find. Realize that you can return the game for a full refund if you want. There are cheaper sets online made of inexpensive woods.
beautiful quality and craftsmanship Make us proud to use the new set
It just couldn't get any better!
My mom had a Pegs and Jokers game that had pegs that just sat in the holes and they would fall out. This is perfect because the pegs are really pegs that push into the holes.
The wood is really nice and this is a great game. We love it and everyone we play with have a lot of fun playing also.
Have my own. Purchased from you one year ago. One of the best group games ever. The two sets I just got from you are destined to be Christmas gifts, since everyone whom we introduced to this game have raved about it!
We purchased this game as a thank you for our neighbors and know they will be thrilled with the quality and flexibility of this game. Being able to adjust the playing surface to accommodate the number of players will be fabulous for them. They introduced us to the game so know it will be a hit.
I really like the different woods used for the board pieces, and the boards are well made. I looked at several different sets, but bought this one because they use ADK woods. I got the 8 player set, so the board can be set up for 4, 6 or 8 players. The set arrived quickly. It would be great if there was also a wooden storage box available for the set!
Looks great with no noticeable defects in workmanship. My only (small) disappointment was that the pegs do not fit well in the hole at the joint of each board. perhaps a circular groove on the bottom board would allow the peg to seat better. all-in-all a great board game and well worth the money.
