Definitions
- the invention relates to a game device for a parlor game, which should promote tactical skill, memory and the spatial imagination.
- Such a device is of the prior art document US-A-3,709,497 known, which describes a game machine for a parlor game containing all summarized in the preamble of claim 1 technical features.
- the device consists essentially of a cuboid, in particular approximately cube-shaped, a matrix of through shafts or holes and transversely extending recesses having game body (hereinafter also referred to as "cube” or “dice game”), which expediently on a matching, drawer-like Base plate can be placed, a set of differently perforated slides that can be inserted into the recesses ("slots") of the game body across the shafts, so that so that the shafts can be locked in different arrangements and at different heights, also at least two sets of differently colored, preferably designed as balls tokens and expediently a set of plugs o. ⁇ ., With which each individual shaft can be closed at the top.
- To the equipment of the game further includes a game manual, which reproduces a possible game play in the form of rules of the game in a conventional manner, but as part of the present description, only an indication of the design of the device and is intended to limit the desired scope in any way.
- An optional accessory is an envelope of opaque material for the dice if it is to be made of transparent material that can be used to conceal its interior except for the openings of the ducts and slots when playing "blind". It is an advantage of the device according to the invention that the rules of the game can certainly be modified by both the manufacturer and the user of the game if so desired, e.g. for didactic reasons or to specify different levels of difficulty of the game, for example for children of different ages.
- FIG. 1 readily recognizes, the game body ("dice game") on a structure that allows it - especially from the manufacturer's point of view - to build it both in one piece and from correspondingly procured identical plates.
- the game body (dice game) on a structure that allows it - especially from the manufacturer's point of view - to build it both in one piece and from correspondingly procured identical plates.
- it is composed of superimposed plate-shaped elements of substantially identical structure.
- the main body is penetrated from top to bottom of, for example, sixteen (ie 4X4 squarely arranged), equal sized shafts, (ie preferably cylindrical holes, b1, b2, b3, etc.).
- the main body is further transversely to the holes interspersed by a number of slots, (sa1 ... sa4, sb1 ... sb4 .7) of preferably rectangular cross-section, in the small, with a cross-section of the slots corresponding cross section, slats can be inserted.
- These slots can be alternately crossed the longitudinal and transverse rows of holes (as the FIG. 1 reproduces) or enforce in the same direction.
- the number of holes is sixteen, with four slots on each of six levels of the game body, preferably three in each direction arranged slots in one direction and three in the transverse direction thereto.
- For playing equipment also includes a set of slats, hereinafter also referred to as a slider (S1, S2, S3, etc. - see. FIG. 2 ), which can be inserted into the slots and the differently arranged holes have the diameter of the shaft holes of the cube.
- a slider which has no holes.
- the slides are sized so that they can be easily inserted into the slots, ie they should be slightly narrower and slightly thinner than the width or height of the slots. They should be so long that they can be fully inserted into the dice, useful with a cam or the like, which limits the insertion.
- the existing holes in the sliders must - when inserted - aligned with the associated slots of the cube, so that an inserted into a slot tokens (ball, see paragraph below) can fall so far, until he encounters a slider, which is not at this point pierced.
- the slides should have a handle, ie in the inserted state at the end still stand out a bit.
- the protruding end is expediently carried out as a handle and marked accordingly by appropriate design.
- each slide as mentioned below the handle expediently on a cam, which limits the insertion.
- the slider should gradually be able to be pulled out again by one hole spacing at a time. This makes it possible during the game to gradually drop all the pieces down again.
- the slides may also have lateral indentations, in which, for example, can engage a present in the slot of the cube ball or locking spring.
- the markers may be lines or dots that may be incised or painted.
- each pit may only receive one ball if the game goal is to be achieved.
- game pieces instead of spheres also differently shaped game pieces can be used, e.g. ellipsoidally flattened game pieces, so that, as a result, a lower box can be used when weight is to be saved, such as in a game that is suitable for use during a trip.
- the aim of the game is, in short, that each party tries to send their suitably marked set of balls through the cube from top to bottom as fast as possible or quicker than the other party, with the dropping through the differently punched pushers being initially stopped the insertion of the balls have been inserted into the slots of the cube.
- the game instructions should provide that the insertion is done alternately by one party and the other party, and each player must try to obtain from each slider that he or an opponent has plugged, the pattern of the holes, i. Remember their location in the dice if possible. It can be played in such a way that all players can always access all available shifters alternately until they are used up, ie.
- each party may receive a proportionate number of pushers, which may be random or set, presupposing that each pusher hole is duplicated.
- each party first casts their own balls one after the other into the still available chutes. The ball can only fall down to the bottom if it hits a hole on all sliders. On the other hand, where the slider is not pierced, it blocks the shaft. Each slot is closed after inserting a ball by one of the added stopper, so it is locked for the insertion of more balls.
- the pushers When all the pushers are inserted and all the balls have been inserted, the pushers are then pulled out alternately by each party by a distance corresponding to the distance between two pits ("catch"), thus dropping the piles Gradually deeper and deeper into the shafts and finally come down again out of the dice, the drawer-like bottom plate (which should have a sloping bottom) picks up the released balls and roll out, won the party, the first all their Has regained balls. Alternatively, it can also be agreed that the party has won, which has in the end brought most (own and / or foreign) balls to fall out. Another variant may consist in that the sliders may also be pushed back into the cube by one notch at a time, when a player realizes that he is thus able to disturb a fellow player in his strategy.
- the difficulty of the game increases significantly with the number of holes (e.g., 5x5), so a cube with only 16 holes is preferred.
- the dice can be made in one piece if suitable tools (eg sufficiently accurate slot cutters) are available. Also for purely manufacturing reasons, it is expedient to make the dice dismantled, as exemplified in Figures 1 and 1b in that it consists of 6 identical, drilled and grooved plates ( FIG. 1a ) and a non - grooved and only drilled cover plate (plate A in FIG. 1b ) consists.
- the cover plate only serves to ensure that a cover is also present above the uppermost grooved plate, which forms slots together with the grooved plate.
- the plate stack can also be constructed so that the bottom plate has no grooves and the overlying plates are arranged with the grooves down.
- the game cube is constructed from a stack of six stacked, approximately square plates (B, C, D, E, F, G) and the cover plate A, each having sixteen equal holes (b1, b2, b3, etc.) have identical locations, such that the holes of each plate in the stack are aligned with the corresponding holes of the other plates and thus form a common shaft.
- the four grooves inserted into the upper and lower sides are slightly wider than the diameter of the holes and, as stated, together with the smooth side of the plate lying above or below, form the four slots mentioned (sa1 - sa4, sb1 - sb4. ...), each covering four of the holes.
- the plates can be stacked on each other such that the direction of the slots or slots of successive plates are alternately along and parallel to a cube side, as shown in FIG. 1 readily apparent.
- a crossed sequence of slots is to be specified, according to a special embodiment, a plate can have both on the top and on the bottom cross-arranged grooves, while the next plate has no grooves, but only holes and the thickness compensation is used. This facilitates the assembly of the game cube, but does not allow that all grooves / slots in the game body either take the same direction or are arranged crosswise.
- each plate has a number of short dowel pins, which are assigned corresponding holes in the plates to be arranged above and below.
- dowel pins or holes with each other By a suitable arrangement of the dowel pins or holes with each other can be achieved that the assignment of the plates can be clearly represented in the sense, for example so that when assembling the dice game the direction of the grooves automatically changes from one to the next plate.
- the use of dowel pins also has the advantage over continuous pins that they are less likely to bend or even break off.
- the thickness of a plate element in the stack i. the slot-to-slot distance should also be substantially equal to the diameter of the balls, i. it only needs to be slightly larger, but by no means so large that a plate bore can accommodate more than one ball.
- a manhole cover e.g. be possible by means of the aforementioned plug as soon as the relevant shaft contains a ball.
- the drawer-like bottom plate is not essential to achieve the game objective and only serves to absorb the falling through the holes during the game balls and roll out to the side. For this purpose, the bottom of the drawer should be inclined.
- the typical course of the game is designed as follows for a cube with 16 slots and 24 slots: First, each party, for example, each 1 player or 2 players, which together form a team, 8 balls, each sorted by color. Depending on the rules of the game, the punched sliders can either be accessed by either team at will, or each party will receive its own sliders, which it will then insert into any slots, alternating with the other party. It can be additionally agreed that each team only from one or two pages may be introduced. For the players it is important to remember the arrangement of the holes in the sliders and their place in the dice. When all 24 pushers have been inserted, players now alternately drop a ball into a slot and then close the occupied slot with a stopper.
- each player should remember, if possible, into which shafts he has thrown his balls. However, it can be advantageous if the player also notices the shafts in which enemy bullets are located.
- the second part of the game starts.
- each party alternately pulls a slide completely or partially out of the game cube, each at least one notch. You have to try to create a passage for your own ball downwards and possibly also to block the way an opponent's ball by bringing a point of the slide, where there is no opening, under the opponent's ball, assuming , one has memorized their position in the cube or can - with a transparent cube - recognize their position.
- the goal of the game is to get as many of your own balls out of the die and vice versa, to block the opponent's balls if possible.
- the winner is the party who has won back all her balls or - depending on the agreed rules - a multitude of balls of any color.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Spielgerät für ein Gesellschaftsspiel, das taktisches Geschick, Erinnerungsvermögen sowie die räumliche Vorstellungskraft fördern soll.The invention relates to a game device for a parlor game, which should promote tactical skill, memory and the spatial imagination.
Ein solches Gerät is aus dem Stand der Technik gehürendem Dokument
Das Gerät besteht im Wesentlichen aus einem quaderförmigen, insbesondere etwa würfelförmigen, eine Matrix von durchgehenden Schächten oder Bohrungen und quer dazu verlaufenden Aussparungen aufweisenden Spielkörper (nachstehend bequernerweise auch als "Würfel" oder "Spielwürfel" bezeichnet), der zweckmäßig auf eine hierzu passende, schubladenartige Bodenplatte aufgesetzt werden kann, einem Satz von unterschiedlich gelochten Schiebern, die in die Aussparungen ("Schlitze") des Spielkörpers quer zu den Schächten eingeschoben werden können, derart, dass damit die Schächte jeweils in unterschiedlicher Anordnung und in unterschiedlicher Höhe versperrt werden können, ferner mindestens zwei Sätzen von unterschiedlich gefärbten, vorzugsweise als Kugeln gestalteten Spielsteinen und zweckmäßigerweise einem Satz von Stöpseln o. Ä., mit denen jeder einzelne Schacht oben verschlossen werden kann.The device consists essentially of a cuboid, in particular approximately cube-shaped, a matrix of through shafts or holes and transversely extending recesses having game body (hereinafter also referred to as "cube" or "dice game"), which expediently on a matching, drawer-like Base plate can be placed, a set of differently perforated slides that can be inserted into the recesses ("slots") of the game body across the shafts, so that so that the shafts can be locked in different arrangements and at different heights, also at least two sets of differently colored, preferably designed as balls tokens and expediently a set of plugs o. Ä., With which each individual shaft can be closed at the top.
Zur Ausstattung des Spiels gehört weiterhin eine Spielanleitung, die in üblicher Weise einen möglichen Spielablauf in Gestalt von Spielregeln wiedergibt, jedoch als Bestandteil der vorliegenden Beschreibung lediglich einen Hinweis für die Gestaltung der Vorrichtung gibt und den angestrebten Schutzumfang in keiner Weise beschränken soll. Ein fakultatives weiteres Zubehörteil ist eine Hülle aus undurchsichtigem Material für den Spielwürfel, falls dieser aus durchsichtigem Material hergestellt sein sollte, mit der man dessen Inneres bis auf die Mündungen der Schächte und der Schlitze verbergen kann, wenn "blind" gespielt werden soll. Es ist ein Vorteil des erfindungsgemäßen Geräts, dass die Spielregeln sowohl vom Hersteller als auch vom Benutzer des Spiels durchaus modifiziert werden können, wenn dies gewünscht wird, z.B. aus didaktischen Gründen oder um, etwa für Kinder verschiedener Altersstufen, unterschiedliche Schwierigkeitsgrade des Spiels vorzugeben.To the equipment of the game further includes a game manual, which reproduces a possible game play in the form of rules of the game in a conventional manner, but as part of the present description, only an indication of the design of the device and is intended to limit the desired scope in any way. An optional accessory is an envelope of opaque material for the dice if it is to be made of transparent material that can be used to conceal its interior except for the openings of the ducts and slots when playing "blind". It is an advantage of the device according to the invention that the rules of the game can certainly be modified by both the manufacturer and the user of the game if so desired, e.g. for didactic reasons or to specify different levels of difficulty of the game, for example for children of different ages.
Der Aufbau des Spielgeräts ergibt sich aus der beigefügten Zeichnung. Wie man aus der als Beispiel für einen möglichen Aufbau wiedergegebenen
Zur Spielausstattung gehört weiterhin ein Satz von Latten, nachstehend auch als Schieber bezeichnet (S1, S2, S3 usw. - vgl.
Schließlich werden mindestens zwei unterschiedlich eingefärbte Sätze von Spielsteinen benötigt, die vorzugsweise kugelig sind und deren Gesamtzahl der Anzahl der Schächte entspricht und deren Abmessungen so sein müssen, dass sie ohne weiteres durch die Schächte durchfallen können, sowie eine Anzahl von Stopfen, mit denen man jeden Schacht verschließen und damit anzeigen kann, wenn in diesen Schacht bereits ein Spielstein (Kugel) hineingeworfen wurde. Jeder Schacht darf schließlich nur eine Kugel erhalten, wenn das Spielziel erreicht werden soll. Es versteht sich, dass anstelle von Kugeln auch anders geformte Spielsteine verwendet werden können, z.B. ellipsoid abgeflachte Spielsteine, damit sich im Ergebnis ein niedrigerer Quader verwenden lässt, wenn Gewicht gespart werden soll, wie beispielsweise bei einem Spiel, dass sich zum Gebrauch während einer Reise eignet.Finally, at least two different colored sets of tiles are needed, which are preferably spherical and the total number of which corresponds to the number of shafts and the dimensions must be such that they can easily fall through the shafts, as well as a number of plugs, with which one each Closing the shaft and thus be able to indicate when a token (ball) has already been thrown into this shaft. Finally, each pit may only receive one ball if the game goal is to be achieved. It is understood that instead of spheres also differently shaped game pieces can be used, e.g. ellipsoidally flattened game pieces, so that, as a result, a lower box can be used when weight is to be saved, such as in a game that is suitable for use during a trip.
Das Spielziel besteht kurz gesagt darin, dass jede Partei versucht, ihren entsprechend gekennzeichneten Satz von Kugeln möglichst schnell bzw. schneller als die andere Partei von oben nach unten durch den Würfel hindurchzuschicken, wobei das Durchfallen durch die unterschiedlich gelochten Schieber zunächst aufgehalten wird, die vor dem Einwerfen der Kugeln in die Schlitze des Würfels eingesteckt worden sind. Die Spielanleitung sollte vorsehen, dass das Einstecken jeweils abwechseln durch die eine und die andere Partei geschieht, wobei jeder Mitspieler versuchen muss, sich von jedem Schieber, den er oder ein Gegenspieler gesteckt hat, sich das Muster der Bohrungen, d.h. deren Lage im Spielwürfel nach Möglichkeit zu merken. Es kann so gespielt werden, dass alle Mitspieler immer abwechselnd auf alle vorhandenen Schieber zugreifen können, solange bis diese aufgebraucht, d.h. eingesteckt sind oder es kann jede Partei eine anteilige Anzahl Schieber erhalten, wobei dies nach dem Zufallsprinzip oder satzweise geschehen kann, was voraussetzt, dass jede Schieberlochung doppelt vorhanden ist. Wenn alle Schieber eingesteckt sind, wirft jede Partei zunächst ihre eigenen Kugeln nach und nach von oben in die noch verfügbaren Schächte ein. Die Kugel kann nur dann bis unten durchfallen, wenn sie an allen Schiebern auf ein Loch trifft. An den Stellen, wo der Schieber nicht durchbohrt ist, versperrt er hingegen den Schacht. Jeder Schacht wird nach dem Einwerfen einer Kugel durch einen der beigegebenen Stopfen verschlossen, damit sie für den Einwurf weiterer Kugeln gesperrt wird.The aim of the game is, in short, that each party tries to send their suitably marked set of balls through the cube from top to bottom as fast as possible or quicker than the other party, with the dropping through the differently punched pushers being initially stopped the insertion of the balls have been inserted into the slots of the cube. The game instructions should provide that the insertion is done alternately by one party and the other party, and each player must try to obtain from each slider that he or an opponent has plugged, the pattern of the holes, i. Remember their location in the dice if possible. It can be played in such a way that all players can always access all available shifters alternately until they are used up, ie. or each party may receive a proportionate number of pushers, which may be random or set, presupposing that each pusher hole is duplicated. When all the sliders are inserted, each party first casts their own balls one after the other into the still available chutes. The ball can only fall down to the bottom if it hits a hole on all sliders. On the other hand, where the slider is not pierced, it blocks the shaft. Each slot is closed after inserting a ball by one of the added stopper, so it is locked for the insertion of more balls.
Wenn alle Schieber gesteckt und alle Kugeln eingeworfen sind, werden die Schieber dann immer im Wechsel von jeder Partei um eine Strecke herausgezogen, die dem Abstand zweier Schächte entspricht ("Raste"), Auf diese Weise fallen die eingeworfenen Kugeln nach und nach immer tiefer in die Schächte und kommen schließlich wieder unten aus dem Spielwürfel heraus, wobei die schubladenartige Bodenplatte (die einen geneigten Boden aufweisen sollte) die freigegebenen Kugeln aufnimmt und nach außen rollen lässt, Gewonnen hat die Partei, die zuerst alle ihre Kugeln wiedergewonnen hat. Alternativ kann auch vereinbart werden, dass die Partei gewonnen hat, die am Ende die meisten (eigenen und/oder fremden) Kugeln zum Herausfallen gebracht hat. Eine andere Variante kann darin bestehen, dass die Schieber auch wieder um jeweils eine Raste zurück in den Würfel geschoben werden dürfen, wenn ein Spieler erkennt, dass er damit einen Mitspieler in dessen Strategie stören kann.When all the pushers are inserted and all the balls have been inserted, the pushers are then pulled out alternately by each party by a distance corresponding to the distance between two pits ("catch"), thus dropping the piles Gradually deeper and deeper into the shafts and finally come down again out of the dice, the drawer-like bottom plate (which should have a sloping bottom) picks up the released balls and roll out, won the party, the first all their Has regained balls. Alternatively, it can also be agreed that the party has won, which has in the end brought most (own and / or foreign) balls to fall out. Another variant may consist in that the sliders may also be pushed back into the cube by one notch at a time, when a player realizes that he is thus able to disturb a fellow player in his strategy.
Das Herausziehen oder gegebenenfalls auch Wiedereinstecken der Schieber dient also dazu, sich einen Spielvorteil zu verschaffen und die eigenen Spielsteine so schnell als möglich bzw. so viele wie möglich zurück zu erobern. Die benötigte Anzahl Spielsteine entspricht der Anzahl der Schächte, d.h. sechzehn, wenn der Spielwürfel 16 (= 4 x 4) Bohrungen aufweist, in diesem Fall zweckmäßig in zwei unterschiedlichen Farben. Die Schwierigkeit des Spiels nimmt allerdings mit der Zahl der Bohrungen (z.B. 5 x 5) erheblich zu, weswegen ein Würfel mit nur 16 Bohrungen bevorzugt wird.Pulling out or, if necessary, reinserting the pusher thus serves to provide a game advantage and to recapture one's own tokens as fast as possible or as many as possible. The required number of tiles corresponds to the number of shafts, i. sixteen, if the game cube has 16 (= 4 x 4) holes, in this case useful in two different colors. The difficulty of the game, however, increases significantly with the number of holes (e.g., 5x5), so a cube with only 16 holes is preferred.
Der Spielwürfel kann einstückig hergestellt werden, wenn geeignete Werkzeuge (z.B. genügend genau arbeitende Schlitzfräser) vorhanden sind. Auch aus rein herstellungstechnischen Gründen ist es aber zweckmäßig, den Spielwürfel zerlegbar zu gestalten, wie dies beispielhaft in
Aus dem Vorstehenden ergibt sich, dass die Bohrungen sowohl im Würfelkörper als auch in den Schiebern dem Durchmesser der Kugeln entsprechen müssen, derart, dass die Kugeln leicht, aber ohne überflüssiges Spiel durch diese Bohrungen fallen können. Die Dicke eines Plattenelements im Stapel, d.h. der Abstand von Schlitz zu Schlitz soll ebenfalls im Wesentlichen dem Durchmesser der Kugeln entsprechen, d.h. sie braucht nur geringfügig größer zu sein, keinesfalls aber so groß, dass eine Plattenbohrung mehr als eine Kugel aufnehmen kann, Um zu verhindern, dass versehentlich mehrere Kugeln in eine Bohrung eingeworfen werden, wonach das Spiel annulliert werden müsste, sollte eine Schachtabdeckung, z.B. mittels der erwähnten Stöpsel möglich sein, sobald der betreffende Schacht eine Kugel enthält. Die schubladenartige Bodenplatte ist zur Erreichung des Spielziels nicht unbedingt erforderlich und dient nur dazu, die im Verlauf des Spiels durch die Bohrungen fallenden Kugeln aufzunehmen und nach der Seite herausrollen zu lassen. Zu diesem Zweck sollte der Boden der Schublade geneigt sein.From the above it follows that the holes in both the cube body and in the sliders must correspond to the diameter of the balls, so that the balls can easily, but without unnecessary play through these holes fall. The thickness of a plate element in the stack, i. the slot-to-slot distance should also be substantially equal to the diameter of the balls, i. it only needs to be slightly larger, but by no means so large that a plate bore can accommodate more than one ball. In order to prevent inadvertently throwing several balls into a bore, after which the clearance would have to be canceled, a manhole cover, e.g. be possible by means of the aforementioned plug as soon as the relevant shaft contains a ball. The drawer-like bottom plate is not essential to achieve the game objective and only serves to absorb the falling through the holes during the game balls and roll out to the side. For this purpose, the bottom of the drawer should be inclined.
Der typische Spielverlauf gestaltet sich bei einem Würfel mit 16 Schächten und 24 Schlitzen z.B. wie folgt: Zunächst erhält jede Partei, also z.B. jeweils 1 Spieler oder 2 Spieler, die gemeinsam eine Mannschaft bilden, 8 Kugeln, jeweils sortiert nach Farbe. Auf die gelochten Schieber können wie gesagt je nach Spielregel entweder beide Mannschaften nach Belieben zugreifen oder jede Partei erhält ihre eigenen Schieber, die sie im Wechsel mit der anderen Partei in beliebige Schlitze einführt. Es kann zusätzlich vereinbart werden, dass jede Mannschaft nur von einer bzw. zwei Seiten her einführen darf. Für die Spielteilnehmer ist es wichtig, sich die Anordnung der Löcher in den Schiebern und deren Platz im Spielwürfel zu merken. Wenn alle 24 Schieber eingesteckt sind, lassen die Spieler nun jeweils abwechselnd eine Kugel in einen Schacht fallen und verschließen den besetzten Schacht anschließend mit einem Stopfen. Jeder Spieler soll sich nach Möglichkeit merken, in welche Schächte er seine Kugeln eingeworfen hat. Es kann aber von Vorteil sein, wenn der Spieler sich auch die Schächte merkt, in denen sich gegnerische Kugeln befinden. Wenn alle Kugeln untergebracht sind, beginnt der zweite Teil des Spiels. Dazu zieht jede Partei abwechselnd einen Schieber ganz oder teilweise aus dem Spielwürfel heraus, jeweils um (mindestens) eine Raste. Man muss dabei versuchen, möglichst für eine eigene Kugel einen Durchlass nach unten zu schaffen und dabei evt. auch einer gegnerischen Kugel den Weg zu versperren, indem man eine Stelle des Schiebers, an der sich keine Öffnung befindet, unter die gegnerische Kugel bringt, vorausgesetzt, man hat sich deren Lage im Würfel gemerkt bzw. kann - bei einem durchsichtigen Würfel - deren Position erkennen. Spielziel ist, möglichst viele der eigenen Kugeln wieder aus dem Spielwürfel herauszubekommen und umgekehrt, die gegnerischen Kugeln nach Möglichkeit zu blockieren. Gewonnen hat die Partei, die zuerst alle ihre Kugeln oder - je nach vereinbarter Spielregel - eine Mehrzahl von Kugeln beliebiger Farbe wiedergewonnen hat.The typical course of the game is designed as follows for a cube with 16 slots and 24 slots: First, each party, for example, each 1 player or 2 players, which together form a team, 8 balls, each sorted by color. Depending on the rules of the game, the punched sliders can either be accessed by either team at will, or each party will receive its own sliders, which it will then insert into any slots, alternating with the other party. It can be additionally agreed that each team only from one or two pages may be introduced. For the players it is important to remember the arrangement of the holes in the sliders and their place in the dice. When all 24 pushers have been inserted, players now alternately drop a ball into a slot and then close the occupied slot with a stopper. Each player should remember, if possible, into which shafts he has thrown his balls. However, it can be advantageous if the player also notices the shafts in which enemy bullets are located. When all the balls are in place, the second part of the game starts. For this purpose, each party alternately pulls a slide completely or partially out of the game cube, each at least one notch. You have to try to create a passage for your own ball downwards and possibly also to block the way an opponent's ball by bringing a point of the slide, where there is no opening, under the opponent's ball, assuming , one has memorized their position in the cube or can - with a transparent cube - recognize their position. The goal of the game is to get as many of your own balls out of the die and vice versa, to block the opponent's balls if possible. The winner is the party who has won back all her balls or - depending on the agreed rules - a multitude of balls of any color.
Man kann das Spiel mit einem durchsichtigen Spielwürfel spielen, sodass jeder Spieler jederzeit sieht, an welcher Stelle sich die Kugeln und die Schieber bzw. deren Stellung jeweils befinden. Eine erhebliche Erschwerung des Spielverlaufs, aber auch Steigerung des Reizes lässt sich dadurch erzielen, dass der Würfel undurchsichtig gestaltet wird. Um beide Möglichkeiten zu gestatten, ist es zweckmäßig, für eine durchsichtige Ausführung des Spielwürfels eine Hülle vorzusehen, die dem Würfel übergestülpt werden kann und die lediglich die Mündungen der Schlitze und der Bohrungen offen lässt.You can play the game with a transparent dice game, so that each player sees at any time, at which point the balls and the slide or their position are respectively. A considerable impediment to the course of the game, but also an increase in the stimulus, can be achieved by making the cube opaque. To allow both possibilities, it is expedient to provide for a transparent design of the dice game a shell that can be slipped over the cube and leaves only the mouths of the slots and holes open.
