Seega

Seega is an abstract strategy game that originated in Egypt. It can be played on boards with cells in a 5×5, 7×7 or 9×9 disposition. Other names include Seejeh, Seeza, Seezeh, Seja, Cheza, Chesa, Siga and Sidjah. The board starts out empty, and players take turns placing two pieces in any empty cells, excluding the center cell. Then, players move their pieces trying to bound their opponent's pieces to remove them.
