Description

This invention relates to a newly devised board game set using a dedicated board and a variety of pieces.

Conventionally, various board game sets have been used frequently, but there is no board game set using a novel board and pieces as shown in this proposal.

Board games have been popular since ancient times, and in Japan, there are many board games such as Go, Shogi, etc., which are played using dedicated pieces or the like. What I came up with this time is a board game to be played by two people. In this plan, a standard short-square prism-shaped piece and various deformed pieces are prepared, divided into white pieces and black pieces. It is, so to speak, a battle game.

As a means to solve the problem, this proposal has the following structure. i.e.
A plate-like or sheet-like board having a large number of squares of appropriate sizes arranged continuously on its surface is provided, and a plurality of prismatic standard pieces and deformed pieces of various shapes are provided, respectively, and the above-mentioned boards and pieces are combined. . The present proposal is a board game set using pieces of various shapes having the above configuration.

This proposal has the following effects.
1. Since it is a game with a simple structure, anyone can quickly learn and enjoy it.
2. Since it has multiple types of transformable pieces, it can be enjoyed as a game full of surprises and variations.
3. By increasing the number of squares and deformation pieces, it becomes more complex and intelligent, and can be used for patient rehabilitation, for example.
4. The board and pieces can be of any size, and if they are made small, they can be carried around and enjoyed anywhere.

In addition, one-way hatching indicates a black deformation piece, and unhatched triple pieces indicate white deformation pieces. Triple pieces (deformed pieces) ) indicates the downward protruding part.) Explanation diagram of the end of the game according to the present invention (The circled pieces in the figure are dead pieces, and the pieces with thick lines connecting the circles are also dead pieces)

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below.
Board configuration:
11 vertical and 11 horizontal grids 2 are provided on the upper surface of a board 1 made of a wooden flat plate. East, west, south, and north characters are represented in each of the four directions.
Piece composition:
Pieces are composed of standard pieces and deformed pieces. The standard piece 10 is a wooden short prism shape. The end faces are square and the length is twice the length of one side of the square. There are four kinds of deformation pieces shown in FIGS. 4 to 7. FIG.
The deformation piece has a plate-like portion 11 on its upper portion, and has a gap 12 and a downward protrusion 13 below this plate-like portion, and the size of this downward protrusion is the size of one or two standard pieces. The gaps a to d are formed with different sizes and positions, and a part of the standard piece (own piece or opponent piece) can be positioned in these gaps.
That is, FIG. 8 shows the combination of pieces in 20 (area 1) of FIG. Some of the white and black standard pieces of the deformed piece a are located in the space a, and the black standard piece at this location is located below the white plate-like portion of the deformed piece a, so the standard piece 10 here is black. Half are considered white. Similarly, at 30 (area 2), 10-white is included in b-black, at 40 (area 3), two 10-black are included in c-white, and at 50 (area 4), two 10-white are included in c-black. .

Next, the game will be explained.
1. The players sit facing each other with a board between them.
2. Rock-paper-scissors or other methods are used to decide which team to attack first and which to attack second.
3. At the start of the game, the pieces are alternately placed on the board. Each piece is placed on an empty square, and its position and direction are free. Standard pieces can also be placed vertically (protruding upward).
4. By placing deformed pieces in any direction in an empty square, it is possible to cut the opponent's band.
It can also be used to revive a piece after one's own death.
5. If a piece is placed in contact with the stoppers in the north, south, east, and west, and is in contact with the own piece that is in contact with the stopper, it becomes a living piece, and other pieces are dead pieces.
6. When you finish placing the pieces on the board, it will be scored. Scoring is 2 points for a standard piece placed horizontally, 1 point for a standard piece placed vertically, and 3 points for a deformed piece (horizontally placed). be the winner. However, pieces positioned below the deformed pieces are not scored. Incidentally, the scoring in FIG. 12 is 57 points for the black piece and 31 points for the white piece, so the winner is 26 points for black. In FIG. 13, the pieces marked with circles and the pieces connecting the circles with lines are dead pieces.

Supplementary information:
1. The number of squares on the board shall be odd. (to avoid a draw)
2. There are 4 types of deformed pieces as shown in the figure, and the shape is such that half the size of the standard piece is integrated under the top plate (plate-shaped part). Also, the lower gap portion can be used facing downward, and the standard piece can be positioned within this gap portion.
3. Pieces once placed cannot be moved. Also, own pieces that are surrounded by opponent's pieces cannot move until the end of the game.
4. The game continues until all pieces have been placed in the squares on the board.
5. When the top of the standard piece is covered with a deformed piece, the color of the deformed piece is adopted as the piece color at that grid position.

In this game, pieces are alternately placed in the squares, and some of the connected pieces become living pieces by touching two sides of the adjacent piece stopper, and the score of the living piece is calculated. It is a simple game in which the player with the most points wins, and it can be enjoyed without getting bored because there is a possibility of reversing with deformed pieces.
In the previous example, 11 rows and 11 rows of squares were used, but it is also possible to use 13 rows or 15 rows of squares. The game can be produced and used in a variety of ways such as this, and the game can be made more varied.
The board can be made of wood, cloth, or any other material, and the pieces can be made of wood, synthetic resin, or other materials. As described above, the present invention makes it possible to obtain a new and attractive board game that has never existed before.
