Nine-Men Morris...
I don't know about not many people knowing of it. I used to play it alot. I know it more commonly as WindMills ( In Dutch it's called Muele). But yes, its a very, very old game.
And regarding Chess, you can always implement the old card-style of playing chess. The Indian's used to play it with a bunch of cards... If I remember correctly from stuff I read a long long time ago (Might be mixing up some facts I think), it worked something simullar to today's Magic the gathering. Just alot simpler. You place your cards in a patern and then the battle begins so strategy was the aim of the game back then... And people swapped cards between each other which was highly prized...
