Provided is a game device which can be used for education, play or the like, in which, when three or more chips having the same colors or shapes are placed in a column by allowing a player to insert the chips having at least two types of colors or shapes into input holes (slots) formed at the upper parts of each column, a game is won. This device may have a shape enabling the game to be played by using one surface and at least two surfaces while rotating a body if necessary, and to a shape enabling the game to be played by further using an upper surface. This device can have a structure enabling a game to be played by placing the chips on the outer surfaces of a cube, and enabling various games to be played by allowing space division to be clarified.

A domino game having domino game pieces that include double-sided tiles having pips provided on a front surface and a back surface, and a plurality of slots or grooves at peripheral longitudinal and lateral edges thereof that permit, during game play, connection to other game tiles. Such a connection between game tiles permit multi-directional and multi-planar configurations during game play.

A three dimensional chess game method and apparatus which features four levels, one square, non-playing surface baseboard and four square sub-levels, one quarter the size of the baseboard, adjacent and above the base board at various heights. Sub-levels are divided into sixteen squares, by combining the squares from all of the sub-levels there are sixty-four possible playing positions. The King, queen, bishop and knight acquire three dimensional movement by using the height difference between sub-levels, and using square placement on each sub-levels as equal, when the king, queen, or bishop land on a square on any sub-level, all sub-levels holds a virtual playing piece on that square location. Three dimensional movement is obtained through rotation around center point of the chess board as the piece moves from sub-level to sub-level and X, Y and Z, movements between sub-levels which is utilized by the knight.

A method for a stackable block game, where first a version of the game to play is decided. Then, one or more than one player rolls a pair of dice. Next, determining if the roll is over six, a player stacks one big game piece. If the roll is equal to or under six, wherein the player stacks one medium game piece. If the roll is double sixes, the player stacks one log. If the roll is double fours, the player places one small game piece and either one big game piece or one medium game piece. If the roll is double ones, the player places one snake game piece, or two small game pieces for any other set of doubles. Next, determining if any game pieces are all used, the player must skip a turn. Finally, when all game piece are played, and completing the game.

A dice angle game is played on an apparatus that has a playing surface, at least one side wall, at least one barrier within the playing area, at least one demarcated scoring area, at least one enhanced scoring area of sufficient size for at least one die to enter, and a plurality of dice. The game is played by rolling a dice against a side wall and trying to have it land in a scoring area.

A system, device and method for determining the position of objects comprising one or more furniture items and/or building structures having one or more sensors and a controller coupled to the sensors. The sensors detect when one or more objects having at least one sensor tag are positioned proximate one of the sensors and transmit a signal to the controller including an identifier of the object and the sensor that detected the objects. As a result, the controller is able to track the position of the objects in relation to the furniture and/or building structures preventing the items from being lost and increasing efficiency when looking for misplaced objects.

Methods and systems for versatile and scalable board games include a double dovetail scalable board, crown, bridge, and door game pieces, tilting mechanisms and game play, rolling sphere game play, and a marble kinetic timer.

An intelligent game system and apparatus comprises one or more sensors, a controller, a projector, one or more game pieces and one or more foldable three-dimensional terrain pieces. The game board and terrain pieces comprise one or more sensors each having an identifier for sensing when a game piece or terrain piece is located on the game board and/or terrain piece. The sensors obtain object information from the game pieces and/or terrain pieces and transfer the object information to a controller. The sensors of the terrain pieces transfer the object information to the sensor of the terrain piece below them until the bottom terrain piece transfer the object information to a game board sensor. The controller is thereby able to track properties of the game and/or terrain pieces, such as position, and adjust the gameplay accordingly.

An multi-dimensional game comprises a physical component including a game board and game pieces and a virtual component including a virtual environment displayed on a display device. A user is able to play the game by interacting with the virtual or physical component, wherein in order to complete tasks in the game the user must transition between interacting with the virtual component and the physical component. The physical component comprises game blocks, which are able to couple to each other and form objects that are then represented in the virtual component.

A game comprises a matrix that includes a central core and a plurality of stems emanating from the central core, with the lengths of the stems and the orientations of the stems such that the outer ends (or terminals) of the stems are on the surface of a cube, and playing pieces for attachment to the outer ends (or terminals) of the stems.
