FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of the structure ofencircled area 2; -
FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of the structure ofencircled area 3 ofFIG. 1 in use; -
FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the structure ofFIG. 3 ; and -
FIG. 5 is an exploded view of the structure ofencircled area 3 ofFIG. 1 . -
Apparatus 20 according to an embodiment of the invention is illustrated inFIG. 1 and will be seen to comprise a plurality oftokens game boards dispenser 46. - The
tokens game boards game sets features set game board - Each token of the set has the feature (image) associated with the game set.
- The game board of the set also has the feature (image) associated with the game set and defines, for each of the set of tokens, a
receiver playing position 22B, 24B, 26B, 28B, 30B and 32B. - As shown,
playing positions 22B, 24B, 26B, 28B, 30B and 32B will be seen to be shallow sockets, each also having the feature (image) of the set and the shape of the token. Each socket has an associatednotch 84. In each game board, the receivers are disposed in a line, with one end of the line demarcated with the word “start” and the other end of the line demarcated with the word “finish”. - The
dispenser 46 has a receptacle 86, adispensing slot 88, a pair offinger holes 90 and areceiving slot 92. - The receptacle has, as best seen in
FIG. 4 , abase 94 that slopes downwardly from the dispensing slot and aback 96 that slopes to the base. - The game boards will be understood to be constructed out of two pieces 98A, 98B of cardboard, laminated to one another. The upper layer 98A is die-cut to produce the sockets and notches and has the associated feature printed thereon. The lower layer 98B has a plurality of the associated features printed thereon each positioned so as to be visible through the sockets.
- The tokens will be understood to be produced by the aforementioned die-cutting process of the upper layer of the board.
- The
dispenser 46 will be understood to be constructed out of three pieces of die-cut cardboard FIG. 5 . Dotted lines inFIG. 5 show fold lines. -
Piece 100 has thedispensing slot 88 andfinger holes 90 defined therein and will be understood to be folded upon and secured to itself form a box.Tab 106 will be understood to be glued to panel 180, andtabs 110 will be understood to be inserted intoslots 112. Persons of ordinary skill will readily appreciate the manner in whichpiece 100 can be so folded and as such further detail is neither provided nor required. -
Piece 102 will be understood to be folded and inserted into the box to form the base. Persons of ordinary skill will readily appreciate the manner in whichpiece 102 can be so folded and inserted as such further detail is neither provided nor required. -
Piece 104 will be understood to be folded and inserted into the box to form the back.Tab 114 will be understood to be fitted intoslot 116. Persons of ordinary skill will readily appreciate the manner in whichpiece 104 can be so folded and inserted as such further detail is neither provided nor required. - The apparatus can be used by 2-6 players for game play.
- For the purposes of set up:
-
- each player chooses their own image by selecting one of the game boards and positioning the game board with the sockets presenting upwardly, the word “start” disposed proximal to the player and the word “finish” disposed distal to the player,
- the tokens bearing the images not selected are stored,
- the remaining tokens (those bearing the images selected by the players) are shuffled or otherwise randomized and placed into the receptacle,
- a player sequence is selected by any conventional method.
- Play commences with the first player in the sequence.
- That player draws a token from the dispenser, by gripping a token using one of the finger holes and drawing the token through the dispensing slot. In this regard, it will be appreciated that the shape, position and orientation of the dispensing slots, finger holes, base and back, facilitate the withdrawal of tokens one at a time from the dispensing slot.
- If the token drawn by the player:
-
- bears the image selected by the player, the token is placed into the open socket nearest the player;
- does not bear the image selected by the player, the token is placed into the receptacle via the receiving slot.
- Regarding the former, it will be appreciated that:
-
- the flat shape of the tokens and boards allows for the token to be drawn by a finger across the board towards a socket;
- the openings of the sockets are slightly larger than the tokens, such that the token is received by the socket in a clearance fit relation when the token reaches the playing position space; and
- the depth of the sockets are such that a token, when operatively positioned in the socket, is disposed at least substantially entirely within the socket.
- Play then passes to the next player in the sequence and continues until one of the players places a token in the socket of the board furthest the player: that player is the winner.
- Thereafter, the tokens can be drawn by a finger from the sockets using the notches.
- The ease by which tokens can be positioned in play positions renders the game easy to use by persons with limited mobility, as can be commonplace amongst the autistic.
- The releasable engagement by the sockets of the tokens also renders the game suitable for use by persons with limited mobility, as can be commonplace amongst the autistic, since if the game board is brushed or nudged by a player, the tokens are unlikely to move.
- Whereas a specific embodiment is herein shown and described, it will be apparent that variations are possible, including but not limited to:
-
- the number of game boards provided can vary from six;
- the feature could be a color, for example, applied to the token and the playing position
- the feature could be a shape, for example, of the tile and the socket;
- the number of receivers provided on each game board could vary from four;
- the apparatus need not be construed from cardboard; and
- the dispenser need not be formed out of folded cardboard components.
- Accordingly, the invention should be understood to be limited only by the accompanying claims, purposively construed.
