Abstract

Play apparatus (1) comprises a body (3), suitably moulded from plastics, and a plurality of play elements (5). The body (3) has an even number of faces (6), twelve or more in number and is adapted so that when it is thrown it will come to rest on one of these faces. The play elements (5) are adapted to be releasably secured to faces (6) of the body (3) and when secured thereto they will alter the rolling characteristics of the body (3). This may be effected by rebating faces (6) of the body (3) to provide a recess (7) to accommodate a play element (5) therein. Suitably the play elements (5) are retained in engagement with the body (3) by magnetic attraction between magnets (35) on the elements and metallic inserts (17) in recesses (7) of the body. The play elements (5) may have insignia applied to a face (25) which will be exposed when the element (5) is applied to the body (3). Games may involve arranging or matching elements (5) having selected insignia on the body (3). <IMAGE>
