This application claims benefit to US Provisional Patent Application No. 61 / 050,683, filed May 6, 2008, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

  The present disclosure relates to a game having at least two boards: a cooperation board that cooperates when the player plays the game, and a competition board that the player competes when playing the game.

There are currently many board games including boards, player tokens and random mobile devices. In such a game, a player manipulates and turns a random moving device, such as a dice or dice, and advances the token to various positions on the board based on the value of the random moving device.

  As long as players compete with each other to win the game represented by the board, the board of such a game is a competitive board. Such game boards are generally not cooperating boards that require players to cooperate to win the game represented by the board. In addition, there is at least two boards where one board is a competition board where players need to fight each other when playing a game, and another board is a cooperation board where players need to cooperate with each other when playing a game. There is no game used.

  The game of the present invention is a game in which at least two boards are used to play the game. One board may be, for example, a competition board where players need to fight each other when playing a game, and another board may be, for example, a cooperation board where players need to cooperate with each other when playing a game.

In one embodiment, the game described herein can be used to act as an educational tool for players, focusing on teaching “green” or environmentally normal community principles. It is. However, other implementations of the game are possible.

The game includes at least two separate game boards, with a first board 10 shown in FIG. 1 and a second board 30 shown in FIG. For example, the first board 10 is a competitive board that is used competitively by players during game play. For example, the second board 30 is a cooperation board such as a puzzle board or a Sudoku style puzzle board that is used cooperatively by the player during game play.

For example, the first board 10 represents the Earth 11 and the game idea in one embodiment is that the player travels around the Earth 11 while minimizing the player's carbon “footprint” (carbon dioxide emissions), Players can learn about techniques and / or conservation and / or recycling to improve the quality of life of all players who earn “green” credits in the process. For example, the first board 10 is a competition board that facilitates competition between players as the game is played.

  The second board 30 shown in FIG. 2 is in the form of a grid that is divided into a number of subgrids 32. For example, the second board 30 is divided into nine subgrids 32, one of which is shown in FIG. Each of the sub-grids 32 includes nine impact spaces 34 so that the grid of the second board 30 includes a total of 81 spaces. However, other numbers of spaces may be used for the grids and subgrids of the second board 30 and other numbers of subgrids may be used for the second board 30 as well.

  For example, the second board 30 is a cooperation board that facilitates cooperation between players as the game is played. As shown in the drawing, the second board 30 provides a Sudoku game to the player. However, the second board 30 may instead be arranged to show the player generally other puzzles or other games.

  Each player controls at least one (up to four, depending on the number of players in the game) subgrid 32 on the second board 30. In the player's turn, the player has the right to place an impact piece 36 in the impact space 34 on the grid of the second board 30 (FIG. 5; for example, the impact piece 36 is locked as described below). Pegs). The impact piece 36 is a piece representing a non-player since it does not represent a game player.

If necessary, a game rule is that players need to place impact pieces 36 only within their own subgrid 32, for example, in a first predetermined number of orders, such as twice. Also good. Thereafter, the player places impact pieces within any of the subgrids 32 in a cooperative manner to solve the puzzle on the second board 30.

  The game ends when the grid of the second board 30 is successfully completed by a player who has successfully filled all of the impact space 34 with the impact piece 36. At this point, each player of the game throws another random mover, illustrated here as a trade-style dice 80 (FIG. 8). The other throw is that none of the impact pieces have the same units, symbols or unit combinations, the symbols are in the same subgrid 32, are in the same horizontal path, and are in the same vertical path of the second board 30. Occurs only when all players have successfully completed the second board, as is the case (see the correctly completed grid example in FIG. 11).

As shown in FIG. 8, the trade wind dice 80 includes two nested dice that include an outer dice 80A that includes an inner dice 80B. Inner dice 80B is arranged to roll in outer dice 80A such that outer dice 80A and inner dice 80B roll independently of each other. The outer dice 80A and the inner dice 80B have values such as numbers around the outer periphery thereof. In one embodiment, the outer dice 80A includes a continuous transparent or translucent material such that the value of the inner dice 80B can be seen through the outer dice 80A. In other embodiments, the outer dice 80A includes a cage of transparent, translucent or opaque material with a crack such that the value of the inner dice 80B can be seen through the outer dice 80A.

In one embodiment, the cooperative play of the second board 30 is similar to the well-known Sudoku puzzle and utilizes similar grid layout and completion principles. In Sudoku, a 9 × 9 grid of generally 81 spaces is subdivided into 9 3 × 3 subgrids of 9 spaces each. One of the impact pieces 36 having a particular number, image or other unit is that the unit, number or image is not repeated in any subgrid, the unit is not repeated in a column of nine spaces, and the unit has nine spaces It is arranged in each of the impact spaces 34 so as not to be repeated in the stage.

  The second board 30 has the same 9 × 9 grid and sub-grid layout. Alternatively, each of the subgrids 32 may be larger or smaller than 9x9. Further, the impact space 34 can have a space, a circle, an ellipse, a rectangle, a triangle, or any other shape. The impact piece 36 can be numbered like Sudoku. However, impact piece 36 uses an image, a combination of images and numbers, or any other unit or combination of units instead.

The second board 30 is selectable between a number of four difficulty levels, such as beginner, intermediate, advanced and critical. For example, these levels can correspond to changing the level of difficulty provided by different Sudoku puzzles.

Alternatively, the second board 30 is configured to play a puzzle other than Sudoku or a game other than a puzzle.

After each player makes the final throw of the trade-style dice 80, the player with the most green credits 40 (FIG. 4) wins when the second board 30 is successfully completed. The player with the second green credit 40 is second, and so on. This type of session (or tournament) containing multiple games, the sum of all games in a session can be cumulative.

  Since the impact piece 36 is keyed as described later, the player cannot insert the impact piece 36 into the wrong impact space 34 of the sub-grid 32 in the game. However, as will be described later, in one variation of the game, the blank card 138 (FIG. 25) is impacted until all of the impact pieces 36 are placed on the second board 30 and the blank card 138 is removed. -It is applied to the second board 30 so that none of the pieces 36 are completely set on the second board 30. In this variation, the player can therefore insert the impact piece 36 in the wrong space of the subgrid 32. For example, if the blank card 138 is removed after the game is over, the misplaced impact piece 36 is completely placed on the second board 30, indicating an incorrect completion of the game.

  If multiple games are played in a session so that each game's score is cumulative, a stopped (game over) player can re-enter the next game.

  The game device includes a first board 10 and a second board 30. In addition, a trade-style dice 80 (other mobile devices can be used) and play pieces that are moved around the first board 10 (these are, for example, mobile pieces such as the Monopoly® set). Various design tokens (not shown) for any similar shaped game token) and impact piece 36 that can be placed in the impact space 34 of the second board 30 And four sets of lunar discs 60 (FIG. 6) and one lunar calendar (not shown but obtained from any yearbook or website) and four sets of 70 impact cards (FIG. 7; Exemplary contents of the card are shown in the appendix) and a set of 72 monthly cards (Figure 7; exemplary contents of the monthly card are shown in the appendix) ), One code booklet for the second board 30 (the code booklet is not shown, but can correspond to a Sudoku puzzle book), and one code booklet for the second board 30 There are decoder booklets (the code decoder booklet is not shown but can correspond to the Sudoku puzzle answer booklet) and 12 green ecology grid bonus pieces (not shown).

  These 12 bonus pieces are in the form of gems / precious stones, they have the same or different units, and they are kept in the bag or face down so that the player cannot see them May be. If a bonus piece is awarded, the player receiving the bonus piece places his hand in the bag and pulls up the bonus piece. For example, the bonus piece is given to the player who has correctly inserted the piece 36 into the sub-grid of the opponent's second board 30.

  The value of the bonus piece may be predetermined or given after the game is over. In this latter case, the bonus pieces may have different colors, shapes or other identifications so that different values are assigned.

If a value is assigned after the game is over, a player such as the winning player or the total length throws the dice 80, and the resulting value of the dice 80 is used to establish the value of the bonus piece. If the bonus pieces have different values, the dice 80 are thrown separately for each different bonus piece.

  At the end of the game, the bonus piece is exchanged for green credit according to the value determined as above by the total length. For example, these values can vary from 50 green credits to 3000 green credits.

  The first player who throws zero with either dice 80A or 80B is assigned as the total length and in that role distributes the initial assignment of green credit 40 and gives and receives green credit 40 as the game progresses Responsible and will act as a “bunker” role.

To prepare for play, the player places the first board 10 on a flat play surface and places the set of environmental impact cards 70 in the assigned space 12 of the first board 10 so as to lie down. Each player chooses one token representing him or herself on the first board 10 and allocates one of the sub-grids 32 (or more according to the number of players) on the second board 30 (e.g. Control the subgrid 32, determined by throwing the trade wind dice 80 and indicated by the outer dice 80A; if the subgrid 32 has already been assigned, the player again turns the dice 80 until a possible subgrid comes out Toss).

  If the sub-grid 32 cannot be uniformly allocated among players due to the number of players participating, the extra sub-grid 32 becomes a “public domain” sub-grid and all players in their respective order during the game Played by.

  The elected president is responsible for preparing a game such as a puzzle on the second board 30, and each player is responsible for his corresponding subgrid 32 used to solve the puzzle on the second board 30. Or have her worksheet. All bonus pieces are placed in a bag, or all are stirred down, and next to the edge of the earth 11, between the basic orientations of N, E, S and W on the first board 10 Arranged in a row.

  Each player is given 1500 green credits 40 divided as follows: 1 500 credits, 5 100 credits, and 10 50 credits. All of the remaining credits are placed in an international credit union (ICU) managed by a lottery or by a separately elected player.

  To start the game, the moon disk 60 can use an alternative method of placement, but uses the moon timetable to place it next to the impact space 14 corresponding to the lunar calendar of the month in which the game is being played. Is done. The lunar month has a duration of 29 and 1/2 days, so 29 and 1/2 Arabic numerals are spaced on the first board 10. However, there are 7 calendar days that also have 31 days, and Roman numerals also correspond to 7 days of the week to accommodate the different phases of the moon when it sinks on the 30th or 31st day of a given month. Assigned to each space 14 including three neutral spaces (E, S and W) separating the continuity of the space. The second board 30 is then set according to the level of difficulty (beginner, intermediate, advanced, critical) agreed by the player according to the initial position given in the second board 30 code booklet.

All players start in 29 and 1/2 space. Play is started from the president, and each player moves clockwise, throwing the trade-style dice 80 and moving the player's token according to the number of impact spaces 14 indicated by the trade-style dice 80. At this time, the player subtracts the value of the inner dice 80B from the value of the outer dice 80A, and advances his or her token by the number of the impact space 14 indicated by the result.

The player can also move around the first board 10 in the clockwise or counterclockwise direction. For example, if the value of the inner dice 80B is higher than the value of the outer dice 80A, the player moves his or her token counterclockwise by the number of spaces 14 equal to the difference between these values. On the other hand, if the value of the inner dice 80B is not higher than the value of the outer dice 80A, the player moves his or her token clockwise by the number of spaces 14 equal to the difference between these values.

  However, instead of moving the token by the number of spaces 14 equal to the difference between the values of the inner and outer dice 80A and 80B, the player will have a space equal to the sum of the values of the inner and outer dice 80A and 80B. You can move 14 tokens.

Alternatively, if the sum of the two dice is even, the player moves his or her token counterclockwise by the number of spaces 14 equal to the sum of the values of the inside and outside dice 80A and 80B. On the other hand, if the sum of the two dice is odd, the player moves his or her token clockwise by the number of spaces 14 equal to the value of the inner and outer dice 80A and 80B.

Other movement variations are possible.

  A player who draws a card from one of the set 70 reads a question to another player, such as the next player to play. If a player draws a card from one of the set 70, that player draws from the set closest to the player who draws it. Other variations are possible. If a player answers the question correctly, he or she gets the reward or penalty on the card. Alternatively, the responding player does not receive the reward or penalty on the card.

  The player must land on the environmental impact space 14 associated with the lunar disk corresponding to one of the four phases of the associated moon (full moon, 3/4, 1/2 and 1/4) The player gets the following green credits from the International Credit Union: Full Moon, 150 Green Credits; March / April, 100 Green Credits; 1/2 Months, 50 Green Credits; Additional order that must be performed. All players who land on the lunar phase space 14 must also draw the lunar card from the lunar card set 72 and follow the card instructions.

If a player throws a zero “0” with the outer dice 80A or the inner dice 80B, the player moves in response to the throw and is assigned the closest to the player's token on the first board 10. Draw an environmental impact card from one of the set 70 on the empty space 12.

  Any double throw other than 0-0 or 7-7 will cause the player's tokens to be transferred to the 29 and 1/2 space 14, and from one of the environmental impact card sets 70 to the environmental impact card. 70 will be drawn.

  Any player who lands in a neutral space in space 14 (those marked by “E”, “W” or “S”) will be from one of a set 70 of one to two closest allocated spaces 12. The environmental impact card must be drawn and the instructions on the drawn card must be followed.

  If a player throws a double 7 “7-7”, that player can request a full disclosure of the number of green credits 40 owned by the other player.

  If a player throws a double “0-0”, that player moves his or her token to the center of the first board 10 on Earth 11 and loses order. In that player's next turn, he or she reenters the Earth's orbit in space 14 of 29 and 1/2 and resumes play.

When the second board 30 is successfully completed by the player, the game is over. That player gets an additional 500 green credits. The player then throws another trade dice 80 and totals the credits to see who won. The player with the second highest number of green credits 40 is second, and so on for the remaining players. Scoring is cumulative from one game to the next unless otherwise agreed in advance.

  As described above, the second board 30 is in one embodiment a matrix of subgrids 32 each having the same number of impact spaces 34. In the case of a 9x9 puzzle, the purpose of the second board 30 is that each subgrid 32 has all nine different impact pieces 36 placed on it, all of which impact pieces 36 are the same subgrid, Make sure it is consistent with the same horizontal and vertical impact pieces of the same unit. As mentioned above, this play is similar to the Sudoku rule, but restricts individual player access to the entire grid.

  Due to the different levels of difficulty chosen, the number of impact pieces 36 that are pre-placed on the second board 30 to begin the game need not be the same in the game. Further, not all of the subgrids 32 have the same number of impact pieces 36 at the start of the game, but may have more, less, or none at all. Placement of the impact piece 36 on the second board because the failure to successfully complete the second board 30 will result in the extinction of all players in that particular game and no one will gain points. Therefore, it is the best interest of all players to cooperate with each other.

  As described above, each impact piece 36 is individually and uniquely keyed to be properly received only by the appropriate impact space 34 of the subgrid 32. In this case, the second board 30 includes, for example, the receiver portion 100 and the decoder portion 102 shown in FIGS. The receiver portion 100 has 81 holes 104 passing therethrough.

  Since piece 36 is keyed as described above and below, the game can be arranged to refuse insertion of piece 36 by the player in the wrong position of subgrid 32. However, as discussed above and below, in one variation of the game, the blank card 138 (FIG. 25) has all pieces 36 placed on the second board 30 and the blank card 138 is removed. Until then, the piece 36 is provided in the decoder portion 102 (FIGS. 16 and 17) so that it is not fully set. In this variation, the player can therefore insert the piece 36 in the wrong position of the subgrid 32. When the blank card 138 is removed, for example, after the game is over, any misplaced piece 36 does not enter the decoder portion 102 completely.

  As shown here, each piece 36 is individually keyed so that it can be properly received only by one of the spaces 34 of the subgrid 32. In addition, several other pieces 36 are similarly keyed so that each other subgrid 32 can accept only one of the pieces 36 having the same key. Thus, if there are nine subgrids 32, nine pieces 36 have the same key, the other nine pieces 36 have different keys, nine pieces 36 also have different keys, and so on. It is. Thus, assuming that the space 34 of the second board 30 is a 9 × 9 grid, there are nine different keys. Thus, a piece 36 having a particular key will have a key in a nine-space stage so that the key is not repeated in a nine-space column so that the key is not repeated within the subgrid 32. It can be arranged in each space 34 so as not to be repeated.

The receiver portion (or other mechanism such as a card) 100 and the decoder portion (or other mechanism such as a card) 102 are shown in FIGS. For a 9x9 game, the receiver portion 100 has 81 receiver holes 104 passing therethrough, but the receiver portion 100 can have any number of holes passing therethrough.

  As shown in FIGS. 11, 12 and 13, the receiver portion 100 has a piece 36 inserted therein. Each piece 36 includes a single deflected shaft 106, an indicating top surface 108, and a key bottom 110, as shown in FIGS. In one embodiment, each key bottom 110 received by the sub-grid of the second board 30 is one of nine unique keys, assuming that the second board 30 is a 9x9 board with 81 holes. Corresponding to Each of these nine keys has a unique shape, and examples of these shapes are shown by step 112 in FIG.

Alternatively, as shown in step 112 'of FIG. 24, eight of these nine keys have the same shape. For example, the shape is rectangular with each key having a unique angle with respect to the other eight keys. The ninth of these nine keys has a neutral shape, such as a round shape. The decoder portion 102 of FIGS. 16 and 17 supplements these keys.

The indicating top surface 108 of the piece 36 has a number for each piece 36. These numbers are shown in step 114 of FIG. The correspondence between keys and numbers is shown in FIG. Accordingly, each of these numbers uniquely corresponds to a key as shown in step 114 of FIG. A corresponding number appears on the indicating top surface 108 of each piece 36. However, instructions other than those numbers can be used.

By comparing FIGS. 11 and 17 using the key of FIG. 24, it can be seen that the game of FIG. 11 fits the decoder portion 102 of FIG.

  As described above, assuming that the second board 30 is a 9 × 9 game board having 81 holes, each of the key bottoms 110 received by the sub-grid 32 of the second board 30 corresponds to a corresponding one. One of nine unique keys. Thus, the subgrid 32 receives a series of nine pieces 36 with a series of each nine pieces 36 having different key shapes, for example, as shown by way of example in step 112 of FIG. In the 9 × 9 second board 30, this series of nine pieces 36 is repeated for each of the other eight subgrids. Thus, there are nine pieces 36 with triangular keys, nine pieces 36 with heart keys, nine pieces 36 with diamond keys, and so on. However, if the second board 30 is other than a 9x9 game board with 81 holes, the number of pieces 36 with triangular keys is different, the number of pieces 36 with heart keys is different, diamonds The number of pieces 36 having different keys is different.

According to one embodiment, the decoder portion 102 has a keyhole 116, as shown in FIG. 10 that receives the key bottom 110 of the piece 36. As shown in FIG. 10, the keyhole 116 is simply a recess or depression in the decoder portion 102.

When one of the pieces 36 is applied to the second board 30, the axis 106 of the piece 36 is received in one of the holes 104 of the receiver portion 100, and the key bottom 110 of that piece 36 is the key of the decoder portion 102. It is received in one of the holes 116.

  In the above case, the bottom of each key hole 116 has a shape corresponding to one key shape of the key of the key bottom 110. In this way, the decoder unit 102 has nine different so that each sub-grid 32 is not repeated in shape, number or other values on the indication top surface 108 in any sub-grid 32 just like a Sudoku game. Make sure you receive a unique piece 36. Each subgrid 32 thus receives the same nine pieces 36 in different combinations. However, each sub-grid 32 can accommodate only one of the pieces 36 having the first nine key shapes, and each sub-grid 32 is one of the pieces 36 having the second nine key shapes. The rest of the key shapes are the same.

Shapes other than those shown in FIG. 24 can be used for the key bottom 110 and for the keyhole 116. In addition, keys that depend on attributes other than shape identification are used to align piece 36 with decoder portion 102. If the key base 110 has a rectangular shape as shown in FIGS. 20, 21, 22 and 24, the shaft 106 is round D when viewed along its longitudinal axis as in FIG. Deflected by having the deflecting side 122 flattened to appear to be shaped, the receiver hole 104 of the receiver portion 100 is correspondingly flattened as shown in FIGS. And has a deflecting side 122. In this case, when the piece 36 is inserted into the receiver hole 104, the D shape of the shaft 106 must match the D shape of the receiver hole 104. This bias of piece 36 ensures that piece 36 has a single orientation when piece 36 is inserted into receiver hole 104.

  In this deflected configuration, the flattened deflecting side 122 of the piece 36 forms an angle with respect to the longitudinal axis of the rectangular key bottom 110, as best shown in FIG. This angle between the flattened side 122 and the key bottom 110 is different for each of the nine pieces 36 inserted into the subgrid 32, assuming a 3 × 3 subgrid. Therefore, instead of shaping the bottom of the keyhole 116 to fit the key bottom 110 shown in FIG. 24, the keyhole 116 of the decoder portion 102 has a different orientation such as that shown in FIGS. . The correspondence between the orientation of the keyhole 116 in FIGS. 16 and 17 and the angle between the flattened side 122 and the key bottom 110 of the piece 36 is the same assuming that it is a 9 × 9 second board 30. Pieces 36 having numbers or other indication values are arranged not to be repeated in the subgrid 32, or in the square rows of the second boards 30, or in the square steps of the second boards 30.

Shapes other than the D shape can be used to deflect the shaft 106. Also, shapes other than rectangles can be used to encode the key bottom 110. For example, the key bottom 110 may prevent the pieces 36 from having the same number, or other indication values may not be repeated in the subgrid 32 or the second board 30 row, or the second board 30 row. To ensure, it has a D-shaped orientation that is different from the D-shaped of the shaft 106. Further, the keyhole 116 does not require a recess in the decoder portion 102, and in particular in the case of the rectangular key bottom 110 shown in FIGS. Thus, the end of shaft 106 is received in keyhole 116 or simply passes through decoder portion 102.

  As further shown, the key bottom 110 is in the form of a male plug and the keyhole 116 is in the form of a female container that receives the male plug. Alternatively, the key bottom 110 may be formed as a female container and the keyhole 116 may be formed as a male plug that is received in the female container of the piece 36. Piece 36, receiver portion 100 and / or decoder portion 102 may be made of metal, plastic, wood, cardboard or other materials. If metal is used for the receiver portion 100, the receiver portion 100 can be a magnet for securing in the piece 36.

  The second board 30 may be illuminated or played back. For example, a subgrid 32 that is successfully filled with a sudoku piece 36 is illuminated. Alternatively, all the subgrids 32 of the second board 30 are illuminated first and the light is extinguished when each subgrid 32 is successfully filled with pieces 36. For example, audio is provided to indicate successful or unsuccessful placement of the pieces 36 of the subgrid 32.

  Also, as shown in FIGS. 11-13 and 18-22, the indicating top surface 108 is multi-faceted or separately tertiary so that the indicated value can be viewed by the player from any angle around the second board 30. Formed originally. Therefore, the player's gaming experience is improved in that it is not necessary to rotate the second board 30 to face the player when the player is in turn.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 18-23, the indicating top surface 108 of the piece 36 is to facilitate the player to insert and / or retract the piece 36 into and / or out of the receiver portion 100 and the decoder portion 102, A gripping element 124 is provided.

  In addition, as shown in FIGS. 11 and 13, legs 126, 128, and 130 are provided at the sides and rear of receiver portion 100. Side legs 126 and 128 include slots 132 and 134, respectively. Slots 132 and 134 receive the decoder portion 102 such that the decoder portion 102 is located below the receiver portion 100. The leg 130 acts as a stop to stop the insertion of the decoder portion 102 in the correct position with respect to the receiver portion 100, and the keyed hole 116 of the decoder portion 102 is properly aligned with the receiver hole 104 of the receiver portion 100. The decoder portion 102 may optionally include a tab 136 to facilitate the user sliding the decoder board into and out of the slits 132 and 134.

  In addition, the receiver portion 100 and the decoder portion 102 can be rotated 90 ° relative to each other to show the player a new game with different combinations of pieces 36 that properly complete the subgrid 32.

  When the receiver portion 100 and the decoder portion 102 are rotated 90 ° with respect to each other, all of the indications (eg, numbers) in all subgrids except one change. Thus, there can be at least two different games per decoder portion 102. Alternatively, different preparation codes are provided that make the game corresponding to the second board 30 substantially completely different puzzles to play with each code.

  The decoder portion 102 may be in the form of a card. Each decoder portion 102 card contains one or more differently arranged pieces 36 such that each card presents the player with one or more different puzzles. As shown in FIG. 25, one of the decoder portions 102 is configured as a blank card 138 so that it is not decoded and the player can place the piece 36 anywhere in the subgrid 32. Can. If a blank card 138 is used, there is no feedback to the player when placing the piece 36 in the wrong position in the subgrid 32.

The blank card 138 can be used alone or in combination with the decoder portion 102. For example, a blank card 138 can be inserted into slots 132 and 134 just above the decoder portion 102. The game is played with a blank card 138 protecting the decoder portion 102 from the piece 36. In this state, the piece 36 applied to the second board 30 is simply located on the blank card 138, and feedback regarding whether the piece 36 was correctly applied to the second board 30 is provided to the player. Not provided. After the game is over, the player can determine whether the game has been played successfully by drawing a blank card 138 from the slots 132 and 134. If all of the pieces 36 have completely fallen into the decoder portion 102, the player's game is successful. If some of the pieces 36 do not fall completely into the decoder portion 102, the player's game has not been successful.

  Alternatively, an insert can be provided and inserted into the keyhole 116 of FIG. In this case, the piece 36 can be keyed by an insert, not a recess. In this way, a new game can be shown to the player by simply rearranging the insert within the keyhole 116 rather than changing the entire decoder portion 102.

The mask 140 shown in FIGS. 26 and 27 can be provided to each decoder portion 102. A mask 140 is placed over the receiver portion 100 and includes the position of the piece 36 used to start the game. The number and placement of these starting positions determines the difficulty level of the particular game being played. The numbered holes in FIGS. 26 and 27 show an example of holes that can be used to start the game. Pieces 36 corresponding to these numbered holes are inserted into the numbered holes to begin the game. Instructions other than numbers can be used to indicate the starting hole. Mask 140 and decoder portion 102 must correspond to each other. Instead of providing one mask per decoder portion 102 by difficulty level, a single mask can be provided per decoder portion 102 to cover all difficulty levels for that particular decoder portion 102.

  The second board 30 as described above is associated with a Sudoku game. However, the present invention described in the following claims can be applied to puzzles other than Sudoku and games other than puzzles. The game also includes a plurality of decoder portions. These decoder portions may relate to similar different puzzles, different types of different puzzles, different difficulty level games or games, and / or completely different games. For example, in one aspect of the invention, when a player applies a game piece to a wrong hole, the player is provided with immediate feedback. This aspect of the invention can be applied to any game where a player moves or solves to make a selection. The advantage of this aspect is that it does not disclose a solution in the case of incorrect selections or movements, allowing players with incorrect movements or selections to continue playing the game.

  Furthermore, as described above, if the player cannot completely insert the piece into the hole, feedback is provided when playing the second board 30. This feedback is mechanical feedback and depends on the mechanical key. The feedback may instead be electrical depending on the electrical key.

  For example, FIG. 28 shows the bottom of a decoder hole 200 having one or more conductors 202 that are oriented in a particular manner. FIG. 29 shows the bottom of a game piece 204 that can be inserted into the decoder hole 200 and has a key 206 formed by one or more conductors 208. When the game piece 204 is inserted into the decoder 200 such that the pattern of the key 206 matches the pattern of one or more conductors 202, an electrical signal is generated. However, if the game piece 204 is inserted into the decoder 200 so that the pattern of the key 206 does not match the pattern of one or more conductors 202, no electrical signal is generated and feedback that the game piece 204 has been placed incorrectly. Provided.

Alternatively, when the game piece 204 is inserted into the decoder 200 such that the key 206 matches the conductor 202, the conductor 202 and the key 206 may be arranged so that no electrical signal is generated. However, if the game piece 204 is inserted into the decoder 200 such that the key 206 does not fit the conductor 202, an electrical signal is generated to provide feedback that the game piece 204 has been incorrectly placed.

  FIG. 30 shows a game piece holder 300 that holds a game piece 36 for the player. For example, as shown in FIG. 25, the game piece holder 300 has nine holes 302 for receiving and storing the game piece 36 for the player. During the player turn, the player removes one or more game pieces 36 temporarily stored by the game piece holder 300 and applies the game pieces 36 to the second board 30. Hole 302 can be keyed or not keyed to game piece 36 as desired.

  The game described here can be provided as a mobile game. In this moving game or another, the impact piece 36 is magnetic and either or both of the receiver portion 100 and the decoder portion 102 are inadvertently removed from the second board 30. It is a metal that prevents it. Alternatively, either or both of the receiver portion 100 and the decoder portion 102 are magnetic and the impact piece 36 is also made of a metal that prevents the impact piece 36 from being inadvertently removed from the second board 30. is there.
