I can confirm this is indeed a game board, I have one which folds and has game pieces in an incorporated box. Mine came from Nepal, there the game is called Bagha Chal, (Tiger moving). It is said to be the national board game of Nepal. One player has 4 tiger pieces that are placed on the corners of the board, the second player has 20 goat pieces. The tiger moves are a bit like draughts, the goats move to surround the tigers.
