game board
Marked playing field
A game board is the flat surface on which a board game is played, typically marked with spaces, paths, or grids that govern movement and play: The Monopoly game board shows properties around a square path.
Game boards range from simple grids (checkers, chess) to elaborate illustrated tracks (Candy Land, Life).
