MAGNETIC CONNECTORS AND COUPLED TRACK SEGMENTS FOR ROLLING BALLS DOWN A VERTICAL SURFACE
An assembly includes a track segment having a channel for holding a rolling object. A first 3D-printed connector is attachable to a first end of the track segment. The first 3D-printed connector is slidable onto the first end of the track segment. The first 3D-printed connector incudes a first magnet embedded therein that enables the first 3D-printed connector to be attachable to a ferromagnetic surface. A second 3D-printed connector is attachable to a second end of the track segment. The second 3D-printed connector is slidable onto the second end of the track segment. The second 3D-printed connector includes a second magnet embedded therein that enables the second 3D-printed connector to be attached to the ferromagnetic surface. Each of the first 3D-printed connector and the second 3D-printed connector is a single piece.
MAGNETIC CONNECTORS AND COUPLED TRACK SEGMENTS FOR ROLLING BALLS DOWN A VERTICAL SURFACE
An apparatus includes a track segment including a channel for holding a rolling object, a first connector attachable to a first end of the track segment, and a second connector attachable to a second end of the track segment. Each of the first connector and the second connector include one or more magnets embedded therein that enable attaching the first connector and the second connector to a ferromagnetic surface.
Three-dimensional game board
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.

Portable Game Board
Provided herein are various types of foldable game boards and foldable objects which include a plurality of elongated base panels each of which has an inner surface, an outer surface, and a side panel oriented perpendicularly on each end. The inner surface is capable securely holding game pieces when in an open configuration. The game boards and objects described herein can be folded to a closed configuration to form a hollow polygonal prism. This configuration gives rise to a space for the storage of pieces on the inner surface of the elongated base panels during closed configuration and includes magnetic plates underneath for the purpose of holding pieces in place to save the game state at any point.
THREE-DIMENSIONAL GAME BOARD
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.
Physical-virtual game board and content delivery platform
A physical-virtual gaming platform comprising a game board overlay including logical locations for the placement of game pieces, where the overlay is placed in relationship to the combination of a game board and game pieces. The combination of the game board and game pieces include electronic means that are in communication with a computing device. The computing device processes the information provided by the electronic means to determine the logical location of a game piece with respect to the game overlay and then provides a sensory output to gamers based at least upon the determined locations. The game overlay can be active and in communication with the computing device such that the overlay is operated to alter one or more logical locations thereby changing game play in response to determined game piece movements. The platform includes visualization and audio devices for providing customized visual and audio experiences.
Dice angle 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.
Multi-dimensional rotating modified chess game
A chess-like game played by at least two or as many players as possible on a non-polyhedron or a polyhedron rotating surface wherein a number of chess boards are connected to each other, back-to-back and wrapped around the said rotating surface so that the rows of at least two chess boards are parallel.
