This game box has an upper surface in three parts, pierced with holes. Each part has a border and a central element; the largest has two groups of 20 holes, the intermediate 10 holes for the outside and 8 in the centre, and the smallest has one central hole surrounded by 8 others. The additional holes are not fully formed and probably served as decoration. The interior of the box is hollow and contained a drawer which has now disappeared.
