The invention provides a three-dimensional game board, comprising at least two tiers of board frames arranged up and down, each tier comprising at least one square frame, the size of each square frame in each tier varying, and on each square frame, a position for setting a piece being provided on each of four corners and on the midpoint of each of four sides; four support frames are arranged among the square frames in each tier of the board frame, which connect the positions at the midpoints of corresponding sides of each of the square frames to form a three-dimensional game board.

A kit for a game system and a method of using the kit is shown and described. The kit for the game system includes a game board, at least one die, a plurality of packable items, a plurality of game cards, and a plurality of suitcases. The plurality of game cards has indicia of the packable items located thereon. The method of use begins by setting up a game board, followed by determining a first player. The first player rolls a die and interprets the die. The first player moves a player pawn and draws a game card. The first player then does as the game card instructs.

A table game management system according to the present invention includes a camera that images a game token placed on a game table, and a management control device that grasps a type of the game token placed on the game table based on a color of a side face of the game token imaged by the camera.

A detection system according to the present invention includes a control device that detects fraud conducted on a game table by using the image analysis result obtained by an image analysis device. In addition, each game token used in this detection system has a multilayer structure having plastic layers with a plurality of different colors stacked on each other, with a colored layer being provided at least intermediately, and white layers or light-colored layers (not illustrated, but may be any layers lighter in color than the colored layer) being stacked on two sides of the intermediate colored layer. As described above, this game token has a multi-layer structure including the colored layer, with the white layers or light-colored layers (not illustrated, but may be any layers lighter in color than the colored layer) being stacked on the two sides of the intermediate colored layer.

A game has a plurality of game pieces that are configured to be stacked upon one another in a loosely interconnected fashion that permits the stack of game pieces to tumble once the stack becomes unbalanced or unstable.

Board game (1) with a board (2) having at least one playing surface (3) comprising multiple playing fields (4) and with playing pieces (5) and at least one holding device (6) for holding a playing piece (5) releasably attached to the playing field (4), with the board (2) being arranged such that the orientation of the playing surface (3) deviates from a horizontal orientation, wherein a rotating device (7) is provided for holding the playing piece (5) in a same vertical orientation for any rotation of the board (2) about an imaginary axis (A) substantially orthogonally to the playing surface (3).

A board game apparatus is described that includes a square playing board, and a first set and a second set of game coins. The square playing board includes a playing surface and two opposite playing sides, namely, attacking side (A) and defending side (D). The first set of game coins (f) are marked with indicia, such as I, II, III, IV, V, VII, and XI. The second set of game coins (s) consist of indicia Hash (#). The attacking side (A) is allotted with the first set of game coins (f) and the defending side (D) is allotted with the second set of game coins (s). The board game apparatus is designed to play games employing mathematical skills which provide amusement and educational stimulation to both adults and children.

A game piece assembly includes: a front surface formed in a first predetermined shape and including a predetermined number of pips, a back surface formed in a second predetermined shape, a side surface extending between the front and back surfaces, wherein the front surface, the back surface and the side surface define a hollow space that is configured to hold a prize therein in a closed configuration.

The challenge to myself was to create a game that would negate my three dislikes in playing the “age old” Tick-Tac-Toe game. #1 dislike: The Tick-Tac-Toe game usually ends in a tie/stalemate, boring! #2 dislike: Whoever goes first in the Tick-Tac-Toe game, controls/dominates the game, being a bully. #3 dislike: The Tick-Tac-Toe game comes to an end too quickly without a chance to use mental extended strategy, not challenging enough.

“Bottom Line:” in Stackable-3D-Tick-Tac-Toe, there is always a winner, Stackable-3D-Tick-Tac-Toe is a “winner” of a game and a helpful, healing Therapy Board!

Endorsement: Richard McCracken has developed an awesome “Stackable 3D Tic Tac Toe Board” which can be utilized as a vertical game board or as a functional activity. This board game is unlike anything I have seen in 20 years practicing as an occupational therapist.

I utilize this game daily to promote fine motor coordination, strength, and pinch strength.

A chess set includes two or more chess pieces that have radial symmetry around a vertical axis and having rank-identifying shapes similar to those found in common Staunton style chess pieces. The chess pieces are designed such that at least two of the pieces can intermesh or combine with one another to result in a meshed pair that can be stored in less than 65% of the space that would be required to store the two pieces if stored separately.
