Description

Board Game Apparatus Liquid Crystal Display Board Game A board game that gives the players a visual aspect through a liquid crystal display screen.
As the players proceed along the board and land different positions vocal or audible sounds are connected to the visual liquid crystal display unit which may be positioned in, on, or around the playing board.
The connections on the board may be activated through pressure pads, or reed switches powered by a small battery.
As each player lands on certain positions the L. C. D. unit can now give visual instructions, or any novel viewing, this now gives board games a more interesting and enhancing way of playing board games.
Any old or new film, TV or comic characters can be added into a board and be seen as well as played.
The visual part of this invention is what is most innovative into the future of board games.
