Description

Ensemble pour jeu de société La présente invention concerne un ensemble, avantageusement mais non exclusivement, pour jeu de société, comprenant un plateau de support présentant au moins un groupe de cases de formes et de dimensions similaires, chaque case du groupe portant au moins une première suite de symboles, éventuellement complexes, appartenant à une famille de symboles, et au moins un lot de cartes, chaque carte du lot ayant sensiblement la même forme et les mêmes dimensions que les cases dudit groupe qui est associé à ce lot de cartes. On connaît des jeux de société qui associent un plateau de jeu portant des cases qui sont parcourues par un pion, le joueur piochant une carte correspondante au type de la case sur laquelle son pion est posé. Toutefois, dans ce cas, le nombre de possibilités associées à cette catégorie de jeu est limité au nombre de cartes du type considéré que comprend le jeu de sorte qu'il en résulte rapidement pour les joueurs une grande répétitivité des situations susceptibles d'apparaître. The present invention relates to an assembly, advantageously but not exclusively, for a board game, comprising a support plate having at least one group of boxes of similar shapes and dimensions, each box of the group carrying at least a first series of symbols, possibly complex, belonging to a family of symbols, and at least one batch of cards, each card in the batch having substantially the same shape and the same dimensions as the boxes of said group which is associated with this batch of cards. Board games are known which associate a game board carrying boxes which are crossed by a pawn, the player drawing a card corresponding to the type of the box on which his pawn is placed. However, in this case, the number of possibilities associated with this category of game is limited to the number of cards of the type considered that includes the game so that it quickly results for the players a great repetition of the situations likely to appear.
L'objet de la présente invention est de palier l'inconvénient précité en fournissant un ensemble constitué d'un plateau de support muni de cases, et de cartes, qui permette au cours des parties de jeux successives réalisées par des joueurs, l'obtention aléatoire d'un nombre de situations bien plus grand que le nombre de cartes présentes dans le jeu.The object of the present invention is to overcome the aforementioned drawback by providing an assembly consisting of a support plate provided with boxes, and cards, which makes it possible, during successive games played by players, to obtain a number of situations far greater than the number of cards in the game.
Selon l'invention, ce but est atteint grâce à un ensemble du type précité, caractérisé en ce que chaque carte du lot est munie d'au moins une fenêtre à un emplacement correspondant à l'un des symboles de la première suite de symboles du groupe de cases et en ce que chaque carte dudit lot porte une deuxième suite de symboles appartenant à ladite famille et qui, lorsque la carte recouvre une des cases du groupe, vient masquer, et, éventuellement, compléter la première suite de symboles à l'exception d'au moins un symbole de la première suite qui apparaît au travers de la fenêtre, afin de former une nouvelle suite de symbole susceptible de constituer une combinaison gagnante.According to the invention, this object is achieved by means of an assembly of the aforementioned type, characterized in that each card in the batch is provided with at least one window at a location corresponding to one of the symbols of the first series of symbols of the group of boxes and in that each card in said batch carries a second series of symbols belonging to said family and which, when the card covers one of the boxes in the group, masks and, if necessary, completes the first series of symbols with exception of at least one symbol from the first sequence that appears through the window, in order to form a new symbol sequence likely to constitute a winning combination.
Ainsi, on comprend que grâce à la fenêtre portée par chacune des cartes composant le lot de cartes associé au groupe de cases, il en résulte, lorsque le joueur tire l'une des cartes et la pose sur l'une des cases, un nombre de situation bien plus grand que celui du nombre de cartes puisqu'il correspond au produit du nombre de cartes du lot par le nombre de cases du groupe de cases associé à ce lot de cartes.Thus, it is understood that thanks to the window carried by each of the cards composing the batch of cards associated with the group of boxes, it results therefrom, when the player draws one of the cards and places it on one of the boxes, a number of situations much greater than that of the number of cards since it corresponds to the product of the number of cards in the batch by the number of cells in the group of cells associated with this batch of cards.
L'invention sera mieux comprise, et des caractéristiques secondaires et leurs avantages apparaîtront au cours de la description d'un mode de réalisation donnée ci-dessous à titre d'exemple. Il est entendu que la description et les dessins ne sont donnés qu'à titre indicatif et non limitatif.The invention will be better understood, and secondary characteristics and their advantages will become apparent during the description of an embodiment given below by way of example. It is understood that the description and the drawings are given for information only and are not limiting.
Il sera fait référence aux dessins annexés illustrant un mode de réalisation de la présente invention appliqué à un jeu de société simulant différents jeux proposés par les casinos, notamment les machines à sous, le Black-Jack, le Baccarat, la roulette, le Craps, le poker, etc., dans lesquels :Reference will be made to the appended drawings illustrating an embodiment of the present invention applied to a board game simulating different games offered by casinos, in particular slot machines, Black-Jack, Baccarat, roulette, Craps, poker, etc., in which:
- la figure 1 est une vue globale du plateau de support illustrant le jeu et le parcours du joueur ; et, - les figures 2 à 6 représentent une vue de la face de jeu d'une carte appartenant chacune à un lot de cartes associé à un groupe de cases du plateau afin de simuler l'un des jeux de casino précités.- Figure 1 is an overall view of the support plate illustrating the game and the course of the player; and, - Figures 2 to 6 show a view of the playing face of a card each belonging to a batch of cards associated with a group of boxes on the board in order to simulate one of the aforementioned casino games.
Si l'on se reporte à la figure 1, le plateau de support 10 porte des cases placées côte à côte de façon à former un parcours en boucle. Bien entendu, les cases pourraient être disposées d'une manière autre constituant un parcours depuis un point de départ jusqu'à un point d'arrivée sans former pour autant une boucle.Referring to Figure 1, the support plate 10 carries boxes placed side by side so as to form a loop path. Of course, the boxes could be arranged in another way constituting a route from a starting point to a point of arrival without forming a loop.
Parmi les cases portées par le plateau 10, certaines d'entre elles constituent des groupes qui seront associés à un lot de cartes comme celles des figures 2 à 6.Among the boxes carried by the board 10, some of them constitute groups which will be associated with a batch of cards like those of FIGS. 2 to 6.
Selon le mode de réalisation illustré, un seul groupe de cases est associé aux différents lots de cartes des figures 2 à 6 sous la forme des cases 12 présentant un contour en forme de machine à sous ou de U renversé. Ces cases 12 portent trois suites de symboles, respectivement depuis le bord du plateau 10 en direction du centre du plateau, constituées par :According to the illustrated embodiment, a single group of boxes is associated with the different batches of cards of FIGS. 2 to 6 in the form of boxes 12 having an outline in the shape of a slot machine or an inverted U. These boxes 12 carry three series of symbols, respectively from the edge of the plate 10 towards the center of the plate, consisting of:
- une première suite de symbole 12a comportant deux symboles complexes d'une carte à jouer associant chacun une figure (roi, dame, valet ou as) ou un nombre (de 1 à 10) et une couleur, c'est-à-dire l'un des éléments parmi le trèfle, le carreau, le coeur et le pique, - une deuxième suite de symboles 12b comprenant trois éléments figuratifs placés côte à côte simulant les trois cadrans d'une machine à sous, ces éléments figuratifs correspondant à l'association d'une couleur et d'une figure parmi le groupe comprenant un fruit, un chiffre, un diamant ou un mot tel que le mot "BAR", et- a first series of symbol 12a comprising two complex symbols of a playing card each associating a figure (king, queen, valet or ace) or a number (from 1 to 10) and a color, that is to say one of the elements among the clover, the square, the heart and the spade, a second series of symbols 12b comprising three figurative elements placed side by side simulating the three dials of a slot machine, these figurative elements corresponding to the association of a color and a figure from the group comprising a fruit, a number, a diamond or a word such as the word "BAR", and
- une troisième suite de symboles 12c comprenant cinq symboles placés côte à côte constitués chacun par l'association d'un nombre et d'une couleur (noir ou rouge) pour la simulation de la roulette.- a third series of symbols 12c comprising five symbols placed side by side each constituted by the association of a number and a color (black or red) for the simulation of roulette.
Toutes les cases 12 peuvent être associées à l'une des cartes illustrées sur les figures 2 à 6 en fonction des règles du jeu prévoyant des modalités qui reproduisent sensiblement les conditions réelles de ces jeux de casino simulés.All the boxes 12 can be associated with one of the cards illustrated in FIGS. 2 to 6 according to the rules of the game providing modalities which substantially reproduce the real conditions of these simulated casino games.
La figure 2 illustre une carte roulette 14 munie, en partie haute, d'un trou 14' à l'emplacement correspondant de l'un des symboles de la troisième suite de symboles 12c de chacune des cases 12. Ainsi, en fonction des règles du jeu, lorsque le joueur tire l'une des cartes roulettes 14 et la pose sur l'une des cases 12 du plateau de support, il apparaît un des nombres de couleur de la troisième suite de symboles 12c au travers du trou 14', ce nombre de couleur correspondant à un numéro (nombre ou chiffre) éventuellement gagnant selon qu'il correspond ou non à l'un de ceux « joués » sur la carte roulette 14.FIG. 2 illustrates a roulette card 14 provided, in the upper part, with a hole 14 ′ at the corresponding location of one of the symbols of the third series of symbols 12c in each of the boxes 12. Thus, according to the rules of the game, when the player draws one of the roller cards 14 and places it on one of the boxes 12 of the support board, one of the color numbers of the third series of symbols 12c appears through the hole 14 ', this number of colors corresponding to a number (number or digit) possibly winning depending on whether or not it corresponds to one of those "played" on the roulette card 14.
Les cartes poker 15, telles que celle illustrée sur la figure 3, comportent deux trous 16, à l'emplacement correspondant aux deux symboles de cartes à jouer de la première suite de symboles 12a de chaque case, et trois symboles 15a de cartes à jouer placés de part et d'autre des trous 16. Ainsi, lorsque le joueur tire une carte poker 15 qu'il pourra poser sur une case 12 du plateau de support, il apparaît alors une combinaison de cinq symboles de cartes à jouer, (trois étant dessinés sur la carte 15 et deux étant dessinés sous la forme des deux symboles de la première suite de symbole 12a de la case 12, ces deux symboles apparaissant dans les fenêtres 16). En fonction des règles du jeu préétablies, cette combinaison de cinq cartes à jouer est alors susceptible de former une combinaison gagnante, par exemple si cette combinaison comprend au moins deux paires ou si cette combinaison correspond à la combinaison gagnante 17 des cinq cartes portées par une autre zone de cette carte poker 15.The poker cards 15, such as that illustrated in FIG. 3, have two holes 16, at the location corresponding to the two playing card symbols of the first series of symbols 12a in each box, and three playing card symbols 15a placed on either side of the holes 16. Thus, when the player draws a poker card 15 which he can place on a square 12 of the support board, it then appears a combination of five playing card symbols, (three being drawn on the card 15 and two being drawn in the form of the two symbols of the first series of symbols 12a in box 12, these two symbols appearing in the windows 16). According to the pre-established rules of the game, this combination of five playing cards is then likely to form a winning combination, for example if this combination comprises at least two pairs or if this combination corresponds to the winning combination 17 of the five cards carried by another zone of this poker card 15.
Lorsque le joueur tire une carte Black- Jack 18 ou une carte Baccarat 19, ces deux cartes comportant deux trous 16 aux mêmes emplacements que les trous 16 de la carte poker 15, le symbole de cartes à jouer 19a placé entre les deux trous 16 va alors s'ajouter, lorsque l'une de ces deux cartes 18 ou 19 est posée sur une case 12, aux deux symboles de cartes à jouer de la première suite de symboles 12a afin de former une combinaison de trois symboles de cartes à jouer susceptible de former une combinaison gagnante en fonction des règles du jeu concerné, à savoir le Black- Jack ou le Baccarat.When the player draws a Blackjack card 18 or a Baccarat card 19, these two cards having two holes 16 in the same locations as the holes 16 of the poker card 15, the symbol of playing cards 19a placed between the two holes 16 goes then add, when one of these two cards 18 or 19 is placed on a space 12, to the two playing card symbols of the first series of symbols 12a in order to form a combination of three playing card symbols capable to form a winning combination according to the rules of the game concerned, namely Blackjack or Baccarat.
Pour les cartes de machine à sous 20 telles que celle illustrée à la figure 6, un trou 21, placé à l'emplacement correspondant au deuxième symbole de la deuxième suite de symboles 12b des cases 12, est entouré par deux symboles de machines à sous de sorte que lorsque cette carte de machine à sous 20 est posée sur l'une des cases 12, le trou 21 laisse apparaître un symbole qui vient compléter les deux symboles de la carte 20 afin de former, éventuellement, une combinaison gagnante, par exemple s'il apparaît une combinaison de trois symboles identiques. II est bien entendu que la présente invention n'est pas limitée à des cartes présentant un ou plusieurs trous, ces trous pouvant être remplacés par tout type d'élément susceptible de constituer une fenêtre dans laquelle il est possible de visualiser un des symboles du plateau de jeu lorsque la carte est posée sur des cases 12 du plateau de jeu. Ainsi, par exemple, outre la solution d'un trou à contour fermé comme décrit précédemment, le bord dudit trou peut appartenir au contour de la carte en formant ainsi une encoche ou la fenêtre peut être constituée d'une zone transparente de la carte. Selon une autre possibilité avantageuse, la carte est réalisée dans un matériau transparent, tel qu'une feuille de matière plastique rigide, rendue opaque à l'exception de l'emplacement de ladite ou desdites fenêtre(s).For slot machine cards 20 such as that illustrated in FIG. 6, a hole 21, placed at the location corresponding to the second symbol of the second series of symbols 12b in boxes 12, is surrounded by two slot machine symbols so that when this slot machine card 20 is placed on one of the boxes 12, the hole 21 reveals a symbol which complements the two symbols of the card 20 in order to possibly form a winning combination, for example if a combination of three identical symbols appears. It is understood that the present invention is not limited to cards having one or more holes, these holes being able to be replaced by any type of element capable of constituting a window in which it is possible to visualize one of the symbols of the board. when the card is placed on squares 12 of the game board. Thus, for example, in addition to the solution of a hole with a closed contour as described above, the edge of said hole may belong to the contour of the card, thus forming a notch or the window may consist of a transparent area of the card. According to another advantageous possibility, the card is made of a transparent material, such as a rigid plastic sheet, made opaque with the exception of the location of said window or windows.
Les cartes 14, 15, 18, 19 et 20 peuvent être complétées par un cache amovible qui coopère avec la fenêtre de chaque carte (trou 14', 16 ou 21), ce cache amovible étant apte à masquer la fenêtre, dans une position de fermeture, et à laisser apparaître la fenêtre, dans une position de fermeture. Ce cache amovible peut être réalisé sous la forme d'un volet formant abattant ou sous la forme d'un panneau coulissant sur l'une des deux faces de la carte ou au travers de l'épaisseur de celle-ci.Cards 14, 15, 18, 19 and 20 can be supplemented by a removable cover which cooperates with the window of each card (hole 14 ', 16 or 21), this removable cover being able to hide the window, in a position of closing, and to let the window appear, in a closed position. This removable cover can be produced in the form of a flap forming a flap or in the form of a sliding panel on one of the two faces of the card or through the thickness of the latter.
Selon une caractéristique essentielle de la présente invention les cartes 14, 15, 18, 19 et 20 présentent la même forme que les cases 12, à savoir la forme d'une machine à sous.According to an essential characteristic of the present invention, the cards 14, 15, 18, 19 and 20 have the same shape as the slots 12, namely the shape of a slot machine.
L'ensemble selon la présente invention ne se limite pas à son application à un jeu de société mais peut également être utilisé, par exemple, à titre pédagogique comme jeu éducatif. The assembly according to the present invention is not limited to its application to a board game but can also be used, for example, for educational purposes as an educational game.
