JPH09290041A - Triangle game - Google Patents

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To strengthen flexible thinking power and perceptive power and enjoy the interest of 'pattern' by arranging pieces to form one equilateral triangle with four equilateral triangles of the minimum unit arranged with own-pieces on a diagram spread with the equilateral triangles, and making the player forming the aimed equilateral triangle earlier a winner. SOLUTION: A diagram spread with equilateral triangles is drawn on a board 2. Multiple pieces 1 of two kinds are prepared respectively, and both players determine the kinds of the pieces 1 to be used by them. Both players arrange the pieces 1 in turn at vacant unit equilateral triangles to form one equilateral triangles with four unit equilateral triangles arranged with own-pieces 1. When the aimed equilateral triangle is formed by a player under this condition and deployment, the player becomes a winner. 'Pattern' itself is the feature of this game, and some specific 'formations' become a decisive factor like 'four-three' in 'gobang'. The pieces 1 and the board 2 can be displayed on a screen and deployed as an electronic toy or a television game.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

[Industrial field of use] As a game that can be enjoyed by infants to the elderly, it can be used on a board, with electronic toys, or as a battle game for a personal computer or a video game.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, "Gomoku" is simply a series of pieces arranged in a straight line, and it is "Go" or "Othello".
It was unrelated to taking a position like.

[0003]

That is, it is desired to create a game having the following characteristics of each game. (B) "Gomoku" requires a deep thinking ability, but has a simple rule like "43". (B) “Othello” has an interesting “change in formation”, that is, “shape”.

[0004]

According to the present invention, in a figure in which equilateral triangles are spread, one equilateral triangle is formed by four equilateral triangles of the smallest unit on which the player's piece (1) is placed. Since it is the purpose, the "shape" itself is a feature of this game. Also, in this game, some specific "forms" are the deciding factor like "43" in "Gomoku".

[0005]

[Working] One of the rule formations is to make a regular hexagon with a trapezoid consisting of three regular triangles. Five types of trapezoids are included in a regular hexagon, but when the final fifth trapezoid is created, that is, when a regular hexagon is created, it is in a "stuffed" state.

[0006]

The following can be carried out in implementing the present invention. (B) As a method of starting this "triangle game", 2
It is possible. One is a method in which both opponents place pieces (1) alternately from the beginning. The other method is to place one piece (1) of both opponents in a predetermined position and then place pieces (1) alternately. (B) As for the development of the game, the number of pieces (1) that both opponents have is limited, and after using those pieces (1), the already placed pieces (1) are placed. There are a method of moving by moving to an empty regular triangle and a method of moving by using the regular triangles spread on the board (2) to the maximum without limiting the number of pieces (1). (C) The material of the piece (1) and the board (2) in this claim may be a book, glass, paper, plastic, foam material or magnet. Regarding the plan of equilateral triangles on the board (2), , It can be printed or engraved. Further, the pieces (1), the board (2), and the regular triangles on the board (2) may be formed in any shape. (D) The claims may be displayed on a display device such as a CRT, LCD, plasma display, EL display or the like. In that case, the operation of the piece (1) may be performed by an input device such as a keyboard, a mouse, or a joystick or a finger, and information processing such as control in a game may be performed by a microcomputer. In the above case, the claim can be developed as an electronic toy or a video game by displaying the piece (1) or the board (2) on the screen.
Further, at that time, the board (2) may be omitted and only the piece (1) and the equilateral triangular floor plan may be developed.

[0007]

[Effect of the Invention] The present invention requires flexible thinking and insight despite its simple structure and development.
You can also enjoy the fun of "shape". INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY According to the present invention, a puzzle game in which flexible thinking ability is strengthened, children are wisdomed, and old people are prevented from being blurred can be enjoyed on the board, with electronic toys, or with a video game. It was

Claims (1)

[Claims] 1. As shown in FIG. 1, a diagram in which equilateral triangles are spread on a board (2) is drawn. Also, a plurality of two types of pieces (1) as shown in FIG. 1 are prepared respectively, and both opponents decide the type of pieces (1) to be used by themselves. Both opponents alternately place pieces (1) on the empty equilateral triangles, and make one with four equilateral triangles on which their pieces (1) are placed.
Arrange the pieces (1) so that two equilateral triangles can be created. Under the above conditions and expansion, when the target equilateral triangle is created,
Competitive game where the person who made it wins.
