Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] Industrial applications The present invention relates to character game equipment.

Purpose of the invention It is known that significant educational effects can be obtained by providing education in English and other European languages during early childhood. The inventor of this application has devised a new character game that allows young children to learn language while having fun.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide optimal gaming equipment for playing this character game.

Summary of the invention The character game device of the invention consists of a board 1 having squares 3 on which letters in a fixed arrangement order, such as Alphabet, are attached in the order in which they are arranged, and a board 1 having squares 3 on which letters 2b, which are the same as the above-mentioned squares, are attached, respectively. It consists of a plurality of character cards attached to the center, and in the square approximately in the center of the board, there is a mark 4 to indicate the starting point for arranging the cards, or the above characters in a shape or color that can be distinguished from others. In addition, at least one of the four corners of the character surface of each card is marked with a letter 2c, which has the same pronunciation as the central character but has a different typeface, and is smaller than the central character. By configuring the game in this way, infants and children can naturally learn alphabets and the like through the game.

EXAMPLE The character game equipment according to the present invention and the character game played using the same will be explained below.

FIG. 1 is a plan view of a game board 1 used as a place for this character game, and FIG. 2 is a surface view of character cards 2 arranged on the board 1. This letter game is called the "Alpha Betting Game." For example, one uppercase letter 2b of the English alphabet is printed on the front side 2a of the character card 2,
Additionally, corresponding lowercase letters 2c are printed at the four corners of the front surface. A number of these character cards (26 characters) are prepared for each alphabet. Also, one Jiyoka card is prepared. Board 1 has 3 squares of 3 x 9 horizontally and vertically, and within each square are the capital letters A, B, C, etc., as shown in Figure 1.
...Z is printed on it. Twenty-six alpha alphabets are assigned to the 27 squares 3, and the remaining one square is placed in the center with a center mark 4 attached.

This alpha bet game is played in the same way as the "7s" of playing cards, and first, 27 alpha bet cards 2, including one Joker card, are distributed to several players. The person with the Yorker and the person with the E and V cards can first place the cards on center mark 4 and the corresponding locations on the board. After that, you can only place the cards you have next to the cards on the board, and the players arrange the cards in a predetermined order. The cards are arranged in the direction of arrows 5 and 6 on the board, and cannot be continued up or down. Also, those who do not have a card to play can "pass," and the game is played by determining the number of passes.

Since each player holds cards in a fan shape as shown in FIG. 3, except for the top card, only the lower case letter 2c can be directly seen. On the other hand, since only uppercase letters are printed on the board, the correspondence between lowercase and uppercase letters can be learned naturally through the game.

Note that the uppercase letter 2b and lowercase letter 2 attached to card 2
Instead of c, "Hiragana" and "Kana", Alphabet and its pronunciation (pronunciation), printed letters and cursive letters, etc. may be added. Further, instead of the center mark 4, letters of a shape or color that can be distinguished from others may be attached.

Effects of the invention As described above, in the present invention, the cards 2 arranged in square 3 on board 1 are marked with the same letters in the predetermined order as the letters in square 3 in the center, and at the four corners. At least one place has small letters with the same pronunciation but a different typeface, so
When each player holds multiple cards spread out in a fan shape, the letters in the center are hidden, and each player looks at the letters attached to the four corners and arranges the cards on the board. You can remember the relationship between the letters on the top and the letters in the four corners of the card.
Therefore, this game equipment allows children and infants to naturally memorize alphabets while playing, which has a great educational effect.
