Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention is a game device used as a new indoor game.

This is a game in which two players compete by arranging pieces of right-angled isosceles triangles with different colors on the front and back to form larger triangles on a square-shaped board.

Conventional board game equipment using triangles uses a variety of triangles, so although it can form objects on the board, it does not function as a game to acquire area, and the pieces are too fragmented. Because of the rules, it was not easy for anyone to play, and because it was simply a game where you compete for points by forming right-angled isosceles triangles on the board based on the rules, For example, Utsukai 51-20
Competitions were also held for items like No. 481, which used right-angled isosceles triangles with the same color on the front and back.

Moreover, in the case of Utility Model Application Publication No. 51-20481, each package is divided into two colors.

For example, if a competition is held between a red right-angled isosceles triangle with the same color on the front and back and a yellow right-angled isosceles triangle with the same color on the front and back, the above example will be a model formed by each hypothetical right-angled isosceles triangle. Since it is a game where the winner or loser is determined by objects, the shape of the board itself has no effect on the game, even if the four corners are divided into pieces the size of a right-angled isosceles triangle.

In addition, the above example uses the inclusion of right-angled isosceles triangles with different front and back colors, and uses the adjacent sides of the opponent's pieces to form a right-angled isosceles triangle with a larger area. Since it was not an acquired game tool, it lacked intellectual elements.

Alternatively, Utility Model No. 53-14291 uses a board with 8 grids in the vertical and horizontal directions and flat pieces with different colors, such as black on the front and white on the back. Place two pieces of different colors diagonally, decide the future, alternately vertically, diagonally, and horizontally, place flat pieces, and sandwich the opponent's piece with the piece previously placed on the board and use it as your own. It's a fun game.

However, even if the above game uses a right-angled isosceles triangle with different front and back sides and the game is played according to the rules described above, the fold of the square on the board will be divided into right-angled isosceles triangles. Because of this, it doesn't work as a game.

In addition, if you are playing a game where you pick up your opponent's pieces and use them as your own to expand the area, you can use flat pieces with unique front and back sides.
Also, in a game of area acquisition, in which the adjacent sides of the opponent's pieces are used to form an even larger right-angled isosceles triangle, it is impossible to compete unless you use the inclusion of right-angled isosceles triangles, which have unique front and back sides. I can't brat.

Also, if the pieces are made into right triangles of 30°, 60°, and 90°, the folds will also be rectangular, and pieces can only be placed in the same direction.
When the pieces are formed into equilateral triangles, the board surface is formed into a regular hexagonal shape, and the folds on the board surface become equilateral triangles, making it possible to form an equilateral triangle of 4 times 9 times 16 times, but if the sides of the regular hexagon are one side. Even if an attempt is made to form an equilateral triangle using the folds of an equilateral triangle, only a nine times as many equilateral triangle will be formed, resulting in poor gameplay.

Furthermore, if the folds on the board are squares and the pieces are equilateral triangles, if you place an equilateral triangular piece on the square fold, the square fold will collapse, making it impossible to play.

As detailed above, various conventional examples had their own shortcomings, but this invention is simple and contains many intellectual elements by using right-angled isosceles triangle pieces with different colors on the front and back sides. It is an interesting game tool.

The construction of this invention will be explained below with reference to the drawings. The piece 1 is made of synthetic resin or wood, and has a shape of a right-angled isosceles triangle with different colors on the front and back sides.

For the sake of explanation, a simple basic configuration is assumed to be two colors, white and red, and has a white face plate 2 and a red face plate 3 bonded together as shown in FIG.

Then, on a square board surface 5 made up of many square folds 4,
Piece 1 is placed with its right angle aligned with one of the four right angles on fold line 4.

The piece 1 may be, as shown in FIG. 2, a right-angled isosceles triangular piece 6 having concave portions on the front and back sides, with a color plate 7 embedded in the concave portion.

Since piece 1 is a right triangle, if it is lined up, piece 1 will be turned over often depending on the game method described later, but since there is no gap between adjacent pieces and it becomes troublesome to turn it over, it is shown in Figure 3. If we attach a white face plate 2 and a red face plate 3, which are one size smaller, to a right-angled isosceles triangular plate 8, there will be a gap between the colored plates, so all you have to do is take a photo of this colored plate and turn it over. .

Of course, the white face plate 2, the red face plate 3, and the right-angled isosceles triangular plate 8 can be joined by conventional means, such as by providing irregularities on the bonding surfaces and fitting them together.

The board 5 shown in FIG. 6 has a thin diagonal line 9 inserted into the fold 4, and if the game is played while looking at the diagonal line 9, it becomes easier to form triangles.

A circular hole 10 is provided at the center of the fold 4, and a semicircular projection 11° 11 is provided at the center of the long side of the piece 1 on both the front and back sides, as shown in FIG.

By inserting this into the circular hole 10, you can turn over the piece 1 by photographing this semicircular protrusion 11, and even if the board 5 shakes, the piece 1 will not easily be rubbed and moved. This makes it possible to use it even in a car.

In the above, the board 5 is made to be square as a whole as shown in Figures 5 and 6, that is, the number of vertical and horizontal folds 4 is the same, but this means that the game ends when piece 1 is placed on all the folds. This is because it matches the shape of a right triangle.

Therefore, if the odd part is of some interest, it doesn't matter if the overall shape is rectangular or polygonal.

Naturally, there is no limit to the number of folds 4, and the board surface 5 refers to the lines printed or engraved on a base such as a board, cloth, or paper.

The structure and effects of this invention have been described above, and now the game method will be explained.

First, you have the same number of pieces (1), and from the first player to play, place one on any fold 4 on the board 5 with the color of your own on the front.

At this time, one fold 4 has a right angle part aligned with it as described above.
There is a way to place seeds.

You and your opponent take turns placing pieces, forming a larger triangle.

Even if you place your pieces of the same color, that is, your pieces next to each other, you can advance the bond.

Also, even if your opponent's piece and your piece touch on one side, if they do not form a triangle, the bond advances.

However, if both players form a triangle, the person who created the triangle can turn over the opponent's piece and change it to his own piece color.

This will be explained with reference to FIG. 8, in which the board 5 is not shown.

Column A shows that the red face plate 3 is placed on the white face plate 2 from above, and the white face plate 2 is turned over and changed to the red face plate 3.

Column B shows that a red face plate was placed on top of the four white face plates, and the triangles formed by this were changed to red face plates.

In this way, it is a game where you use your opponent's pieces and change them to your own piece color.

However, when the abilities are evenly matched, the second player easily wins, so to complicate the game, we set up safety pieces of a different color, such as blue, and each person has one piece, which is placed and included to form a piece. Assume that the pieces of the triangles cannot be changed.

This is Column C. A red face plate is placed where there are three white face plates and a safety piece 12, but the triangular structure that includes the safety piece 12 cannot be changed and becomes that bond.

Column D shows that the red face plate was placed in a place where the safety piece was not included, so it could have been changed.

These factors are combined to give variety to the game, and in the end, the outcome of the game is determined by the number of pieces on the board.

As detailed above, with a simple configuration and combination, a fun game that even children can play can be created.
