[Action]

 As for the above-mentioned on-board game equipment and on-board game machine, various playing methods are conceivable by defining the rules, and an example thereof will be described here. According to the first configuration of the on-board game tool, as the game progresses, the pieces are distributed to 2 to 4 persons, and then the four-color dice are rolled to determine the person who starts first and the color. It can be decided, and the method is based on the color of the surface of the top that rolls the four-color dice. In this way, when the person who starts the start and the color of each team are decided, each player takes up the position in front of the frame of the corresponding color on the game board. Then, put the pieces of your own color in the four frame surfaces in the center of the game board. For example, roll the four-color dice in clockwise order. When you roll the four-color dice and the color of your side appears, you can replace the other color piece of any of the three other sides with your own color, but be sure to replace the other side piece with the other side piece. Color frames must be able to be inserted vertically, horizontally, or diagonally. If you can't pinch it, place it next to the other member's piece. When a color other than your own color appears, the person in the color of that color should pinch the color of that color with the other's color in a vertical, horizontal, or diagonal direction. Place it next to the other piece if you can't pinch it. In this way, a frame of another color sandwiched between two frames of the same color can be changed to the color of the sandwiched frame. This process is repeated until the entire board surface is filled up, and the person with the most colors of the placed pieces decides to win the game.

According to the on-board game machine having the second configuration, when the start stop button is pushed to progress the game, an electric signal reaches the inside of the CPU through the input interface and the start / stop lamp is lit at random, and then again. When the start / stop button is pressed, an electric signal is interrupted in the CPU to illuminate an unspecified start lamp, and a person located on the illuminated start lamp side first starts the game. Then, for example, the games are played in the clockwise order.

When playing the game, if each person presses the start / stop button in the above-mentioned order and the start lamp of his / her own team turns on, the grid that was previously turned on with the color of another person is displayed. A face can be lit in its own color, and if its own start lamp is not lit, it can be lit in its own color on a lattice plane that the other lit person likes. In this case as well, the same rules as those for the on-board game equipment described above are followed. In this way, by operating the vertical grid frame designating button and the horizontal grid frame designating button to designate an arbitrary designated grid frame, one of the four color lighting lamps provided on the lower surface of each grid surface via the CPU. That is, when a lighting lamp of the designated person's own color is lit and two lighting lamps of the same color are lit in advance, when a lighting lamp of another color is sandwiched, the lighting lamp of the other color The CPU is controlled so as to change the color of the lighting lamp sandwiched between, and thus, the game can be enjoyed in a variety of ways in which the person who arranges as many pieces of his own color as possible wins.

As shown in FIG. 9, first, in order to play this game, the pieces are divided into 2 to 4 persons, and then the four-color dice 3 are rolled to decide the person who starts first and the color. . As a method of determining the above, a method of performing it based on the color of the surface when the four-color dice are shaken, and a method of using the number of the surface when the four six-sided dice 4 for each color are shaken, There is a method to do it based on the color of the dice showing the largest number.

When the start position and the color of each player's team are determined in this way, as shown in FIG. 10, the person at the starting position has the player's team color, for example, the red piece 2A in the center of the four right hands. The person in the other position places the pieces 2B, 2C, 2D of his or her own color side by side in the center grid plane 2b as shown in FIG.

Then, the four-color dice 3 are rolled in order from the person at the starting position, and if the color of the four-color dice 3 rolled is the same as that of the person's own side, that person is in the other side. It is possible to replace the color of piece 2 placed by the person with the color of one's own side, and when it is a color other than the color of one's own side, the person in the other position of that color can use piece 2 of his own color on the lattice plane 2b. Can be placed in However, at the time of replacement or placement, it must be replaced or placed so as to sandwich the other piece 2 in the vertical, horizontal, or diagonal direction with the other piece 2 of its own side, but if it is placed, it is absolutely necessary. If you can't, you can replace or place it next to the other person's piece. At this time, as shown in the example of FIG. 12, when a piece 2C of a person in another position having a different color is sandwiched between the placed piece 2A and the piece 2E replaced or placed after that, As shown in 13, it is possible to change the surface of the sandwiched commas 2c into the pieces 2c of the own color, and the color of the pieces 2 placed at the time when the facet 1b is filled in all the pieces 2 is changed. The most people win. The color conversion of these frames 2 can be easily performed by changing the front and back or the top and bottom of one frame 2.

Next, the on-board game machine will be described in detail.
