Squid-Tac-Toad is a popular Australian board game played with Red-Naped Ibs and Yellow-Capped Whopper Dingies as life-size game pieces. The objective is to get five pieces in a row, and the spinners decide whose piece goes down where. But if the player uses a Toad-Roller or a Squid-Hopper, also decided by the spinners, he/she/it/etc. can knock an opponent’s piece off its square and send it down the Gurgler.

The game is believed to originate in aborigine tribal games in Australia on planet Earth, played with a board scratched in the sand and the same game pieces. It is believed to have reached its modern state when alien colonists arrived with more advanced technology. The current champion is the Lizard King.
