VTG Aladdin BARRIER, International Game Of Tactical Momentum -NEW-Factory Sealed

This is a vintage board game called BARRIER, manufactured by Aladdin Industries in the United States in 1975 and is still factory sealed. It is a strategy game that requires a two players and is recommended for ages 8 to adult. The game involves tactical momentum. Each player tries to match "tactics and cunning to cross through 'barrier' rows and into the opponent's territory.... As in checkers, the object of the game is to eliminate the opponents playing pieces by 'jumping' them from adjacent squares. In barrier, however, the freedom of being able to move forward or diagonally, plus the additional 'barrier' rows in the center of the board, add an entire new dimension to the game." Instructions are printed in English, Spanish, and French. One corner of the box has separated (see last picture).
