It is characterized by being.

According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a more enjoyable shogi set.

It is a figure of the state of playing a game using the shogi set of this invention. It is an enlarged view of a part of the state where the shogi piece of the shogi set of this invention is arranged on the shogi board. It is an enlarged view which shows a part of the state which the shogi set of FIG. 2 was seen through colored glasses. It is a hardware configuration diagram which shows the outline of the battle device. It is explanatory drawing which shows the outline of the piece DB.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the shogi set includes two sets of pieces 3 and 4, and colored glasses 6 and 7.

The two sets of pieces 3 and 4 consist of eight types of kings or kings, rooks, bishops, gold generals, silver generals, knights, incense wheels, and pawns, 20 pieces each. It is preferable that all the pieces are formed to have the same shape and the same size regardless of the type of the piece. The pieces that make up the piece sets 3 and 4, respectively, are the piece body, the characters that represent the type of piece (king, rook, etc.) described on the front surface GR (first surface) of the piece body, and the back surface RE of the piece body. The characters indicating the type of piece (king, rook, etc.) described in (second surface), the front piece filter that is attached to the surface GR of the piece body and has translucency, and the back side RE of the piece body It is provided with a back piece filter that is attached and has translucency.

In the pieces that make up the piece sets 3 and 4, the ground color of the piece body is wood grain, the color of the characters is all black, and the color of the front piece filter (first background color) is green. The color of the back piece filter (second background color) is red. It is preferable that the characters written on the front surface GR of the piece body and the characters written on the back surface RE of the piece body are the same.

In addition, in normal shogi, the characters on the back side of each piece are different from the characters on the front side, and when you select to "consist", such as when entering the enemy's camp, you can indicate that the piece is a promotion by turning it over. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the background color of the piece changes when it is turned inside out. Therefore, when "consisting", the direction of the piece is rotated 90 ° to the left to indicate that it is a promotion piece. In FIGS. 2 and 3, pieces 3d and 4c are promotion pieces. Therefore, it is preferable that the shape of the piece is formed so that the vertical and horizontal shapes and the aspect ratio are different so that it can be seen that the shape is different from the original state when the direction is rotated 90 ° to the left.

The piece body may be made of wood, paper, plastic or metal. Further, instead of pasting the front piece filter and the back piece filter having translucency on the front surface GR and the back surface RE of the piece body, the color of the front piece filter is used as the background color of the front side GR of the piece body for the back side. The color of the piece filter may be expressed as the background color of the back surface RE of the piece body.

In the game, in the two sets of pieces 3 and 4, 40 pieces are arranged on the shogi board 5 of 81 squares divided into 9 squares vertically and horizontally, and each piece is moved by the players 1 and 2. To. Of the two sets of pieces 3 and 4, the pieces that make up the piece set 3 are arranged so that the front surface GR (background color is green) is exposed, and the pieces that make up the piece set 4 are the back side RE (background color is red). ) Is arranged so as to be exposed.

The colored eyeglasses 6 are worn by the player 2, and include a frame and a color filter 6a provided on the frame and having translucency. The color of the color filter is red.

The colored spectacles 7 are worn by the player 1, and include a frame and a color filter 7a provided on the frame and having translucency. The color of the color filter is green.

Next, a game using such a shogi set will be described.

First, for convenience of explanation, player 1 (state in which colored glasses 7 are not worn) and player 2 (state in which colored glasses 6 are worn) will be described.

Players 1 and 2 sit facing each other with the shogi board 5 in between. The player 1 arranges the pieces so that the surface GR side whose background color is green can be seen, and makes the pieces 3a to 3d. Player 2 arranges his pieces so that the back side RE side, whose background color is the ground color of the pieces, can be seen, and makes pieces 4a to 4c.

FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of the shogi board 5 seen from the player 1 (state in which the colored glasses 7 are not worn). As shown in FIG. 2, the two sets of pieces 3 and 4 are formed in a pentagon with a sharp point to identify the affiliation of the pieces and have directions, and the piece of oneself and the piece of the opponent are always present throughout one station. Arranged in opposite directions. In this way, the direction in which the piece is facing indicates whether the piece currently belongs to you or your opponent.

When the player 2 wears the colored glasses 6 and looks at the piece of the player 1, as shown in FIG. 3, the first background color (green) of the piece of the player 1 and the color of the color filter of the colored glasses 6 As a result of superimposing (red), the color becomes similar to the color of the character of the piece of the player 1. Therefore, the player 2 cannot recognize the types of the pieces 3a to 3d as a result of the difficulty in recognizing the characters on the surface (first surface) GR of the opponent pieces 3a to 3d.

That is, since the player 1 does not wear the colored glasses 7, the characters 3a to 3d and 4a to 4c of the pieces and the characters of the pieces, for example, the characters 3ax and 4ax, can be visually recognized as shown in FIG. On the other hand, since the color filter 6a wears the red colored glasses 6, the player 2 can visually recognize his / her pieces 4a to 4c and the characters 4ax of the pieces, but is on the other side. The pieces 3a to 3d of the player 1 appear to be achromatic as a whole, for example, muddy gray or black. Therefore, the player 2 cannot visually recognize the characters 3ax of the pieces 3a to 3d.

As described above, in the present embodiment, since the player 2 cannot recognize the type of the piece of the player 1, the player 2 always proceeds with the game while considering the type of the piece of the player 1, which requires more consideration. It will be. Therefore, a handicap can be attached when there is a difference in ability between the players 1 and 2. In addition, there may be a mistake in pointing due to a memory error, and the game can be enjoyed more.

In the present embodiment, instead of turning the piece over, the direction of the piece can be rotated 90 ° to the left to indicate that it is a promotion piece. Therefore, although the player 2 can distinguish where the pieces 3a to 3d of the player 1 are arranged and whether or not the pieces are formed, the character 3ax of the piece cannot be visually recognized, so that the type of the piece cannot be recognized. Therefore, when the player 2 takes the piece of the player 1, the player can recognize the type of the piece only by turning over the piece and looking at the character of the back side RE.

When using a piece taken from the opponent, turn the piece over so that the characters of the piece can be seen. From such a situation, it is preferable that the characters written on the front surface GR of the piece body and the characters written on the opposite surface, that is, the characters written on the back surface RE of the piece body are the same.

In the above embodiment, an example has been described in which only the player 2 wears the colored glasses 6 so that the characters indicating the type of the shogi piece 3 of the player 1 cannot be seen, but the player 2 wears the colored glasses 6. At the same time, the player 1 may wear colored glasses 7. As a result, both players can recognize the character of their own piece, but cannot visually recognize the character of the opponent's piece. In this way, since the players 1 and 2 cannot recognize the type of the piece on the other side, they may make a mistake in pointing due to a memory difference, and can enjoy the game more. In addition, since the third party who is observing this game can visually recognize the characters of both pieces, he / she can enjoy pointing mistakes due to the memory difference between the players 1 and 2.

In the above embodiment, the background color of the surface GRs of the pieces 3a to 3d and 4a to 4c (first background color) and the color of the color filter 7a of the colored glasses 7 (second filter color) are set to green, and the pieces 3a to 3a to The background color (second background color) of the back surface REs of 3d and 4a to 4c and the color of the color filter 6a of the colored glasses 6 (first filter color) are red, but the present invention is not limited to this. The color of the color filter 6a (first filter color) of the colored glasses 6 becomes a color similar to the color of the characters representing the type of the piece when superimposed on the background color (first background color) of the surface GR of the piece. There is no particular limitation as long as it is selected. For example, if the first color and the second color have an opposite color relationship, the first color and the second color are superposed to become an achromatic color, and the character 3ax described in the achromatic color is visually recognized. It becomes difficult.

Here, the opposite colors mean colors having opposite properties. Color properties can be expressed by the three attributes of hue, lightness, and saturation. Focusing on hue, complementary colors and colors that are closely related to each other are called opposite colors. For example, in the color wheel, a contrast hue having a hue difference of 8 or more to a complementary hue having a hue difference of 12 correspond to opposite colors. Examples of colors having an opposite color relationship include orange and blue, yellow and purple, red-purple and green, and light blue and vermilion. Further, the "achromatic color" is "black" or "similar color of black", and includes gray close to black and turbid gray.

In the above example, the type of the piece of oneself can be recognized and the type of the piece of the other party cannot be recognized, that is, the surface of the piece used by oneself and the color of the color filter of the colored eyeglasses to be worn are the same. However, the present embodiment is not limited to this example, and the background color of the piece used by oneself and the color of the color filter of the colored eyeglasses worn by oneself may have a relationship of opposite colors. For example, the color filter of the colored glasses worn by the player 1 may be red, and the color filter of the colored glasses worn by the player 2 may be green. In this case, although the type of the opponent's piece can be recognized, the type of one's own piece cannot be recognized, so that a different way of enjoying is possible.

Further, in the above example, one of them shows an example in which the color of the color filter is the second color and colored glasses are worn, and when the first color and the second color are overlapped, the color of the characters is obtained. However, the present embodiment is not limited to this example, and on the first surface, characters indicating the type of the piece may be described in a color similar to the background color. In this case, since it is difficult to recognize the characters indicating the type of piece without wearing glasses, the characters on the first surface can be handicapped to the player without wearing glasses. Also in this example, if colored glasses having a color filter similar to the background color are worn, it becomes more difficult to recognize the characters indicating the type of the piece.

Next, the battle device will be described. In the embodiment of the battle device, the differences from the above-described embodiment will be described, and the same parts will be omitted.

As shown in FIG. 4, the server 40 (competitor) includes a CPU 41, a RAM 42, a ROM 43, an external storage device 44, an input device 45, a display device 46, an input / output interface 48, a bus 49, and the like. It has.

The CPU 41 is a so-called central processing unit, and various programs are executed to realize various services of the server 40. The RAM 42 is a so-called RAM (random access memory) and is used as a work area of the CPU 41. The ROM 43 is a so-called ROM (read-only memory), and stores a basic OS and various programs (for example, a program for an information management system) executed by the CPU 41.

The external storage device 44 stores the calculation results of various programs, and includes a built-in storage device (for example, a hard disk drive) and a detachable storage device (for example, a memory card). The external storage device 44 may be connected via a communication line, such as NAS (Network Attached Storage).

The input device 45 is an input key, a keyboard, and a mouse, and inputs various information. The display device 46 is a display and displays various operating states.

The input / output interface 48 enables communication on a communication line. The bus 49 is a wiring that integrally connects the CPU 41, the RAM 42, the ROM 43, the input device 45, the display device 46, the input / output interface 48, and the like for communication.

The external storage device 44 includes a rule DB and a piece DB.

The rule DB defines the progress of the game, how to move the pieces, the forbidden hand, and the judgment of the game.

As shown in FIG. 5, the piece DB is associated with the type of piece, the affiliation of the piece, the coordinates of the piece, the background color of the piece, and the like. The coordinates of the pieces are represented by the streak numbers (arithmetic numerals) and the column numbers (Chinese numerals). If the piece is a possession piece, the coordinates will be blank.

The CPU 41 refers to the rule DB and the piece DB, displays an image of the board surface on the display device 46, and displays each piece on the board surface. For example, when displaying a piece whose piece ID is HOHEI01, the outline of the piece is displayed at coordinates 13 on the board surface, the background color of the outline is displayed in green, and "infantry" is displayed inside the outline. Is displayed in black letters. When displaying a piece whose piece ID is HOHEI 10, the outline of the piece is displayed at coordinates 17 on the board surface, the background color of the outline is displayed in red, and "infantry" is displayed inside the outline. Is displayed.

Next, a game using a battle device will be described.

First, the first player (player 1) wears colored glasses 7 (green color filter), and the second player (player 1) wears colored glasses 6 (red color filter).

The CPU 41 displays the pieces and the shogi board on the display device 46 when the input device 45 detects a predetermined game start operation by the player. At this time, since the pieces are displayed on the shogi board according to the piece DB (Fig. 5), the background color of the first piece (player 1) is green (first background color), and the second move (player 2). The background color of the piece is displayed as red (first background color).

The CPU 41 puts the player (first move) in a state of waiting for input of a piece operation. Here, when the input device 45 detects the operation of a predetermined piece by the player, the CPU 41 determines whether or not the operation is a valid operation according to the rules, and in the case of an invalid operation. Is in a state of waiting for input of the operation of the piece. On the other hand, in the case of a valid operation, the operation of the piece is reflected in the piece information DB (FIG. 5). After that, this is repeated until the game is decided. If the coordinates of one player's piece match the coordinates of the other player's piece by the operation of one player, the other player's piece will be the one player's piece according to the rule DB. Become a affiliation. At this time, the CPU 41 changes the affiliation of the piece from the other player to one player with respect to the piece DB, and changes the background color of the piece from "red" representing the other player to one game. Change to "green" to represent the person.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the player 1 cannot recognize the type of the piece of the player 2, and the player 2 cannot recognize the type of the piece of the player 1. Therefore, since the players 1 and 2 cannot recognize the type of the piece on the other side, they may make a mistake in pointing due to a memory difference, and can enjoy the game more. In addition, since the third party who is observing this game can visually recognize the characters of both pieces, he / she can enjoy pointing mistakes due to the memory difference between the players 1 and 2.

The above example is not limited to shogi, and can be applied to other competitive toys such as chess.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and it goes without saying that various modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention.
