The cube appears to be nothing to do with Bagh-Chal, as far as I can determine from [this wikipedia article](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bagh-Chal).

Why did you tag this quoridor?  Quoridor is a specific game which, as far as I can tell, this question is unrelated to.

@Gary N. it looks like you may have split into two accounts by accident, you may want to contact a Mod to have them merge back your accounts.
