An electronic board game assembly for playing digital versions of board games includes a housing that is positionable on a horizontal support to be accessible to a plurality of players. An electronic memory is integrated into the housing for storing a database comprising imagery and operational software for a plurality of board games. A primary touch screen is coupled to the housing to facilitate the players to play the board games. A plurality of secondary touch screens is each coupled to the housing to facilitate each of the players to control operational parameters of the board game being played. Additionally, a plurality of touch pads is each coupled to the housing thereby facilitating each of the players to input directional controls into the board game being played.

A puzzle building block capable of changing light-emitting areas includes a building block board, a circuit board, light-emitting elements and building bricks. The building block board includes a plate body and connection portions. The connection portions are disposed on the top surface of the plate body. The circuit board is adjacent to the bottom surface of the building block board. The light emitting elements are disposed on the circuit board, and the light emitted from the light emitting elements passes through the building block board via the connection portions. The building bricks are fitted with the connection portions and shield the corresponding connection portions, thereby forming letters or patterns. Therefore, the light emitted from the light-emitting elements can form various letters or patterns on the top surface of the building block board. The present invention also provides a puzzle building block assembly including the above-mentioned puzzle building blocks.

Described is a board that is operable as a children's book or puzzle with parts that move, slide or turn on one lateral plane to physically change an illustration or part of the item and, as they slide or turn, activate a noise related to the illustration. The board includes a generally planar top illustrative layer. A bottom base layer is attached with the top illustrative layer. The bottom base layer includes a sensor (e.g., light or touch sensor) and sound generation components for generating a sound based upon actuation of the sensor. A moving component is movably connected with the bottom base layer. Finally, the sensor is connected with the bottom base layer and positioned such that moving the moving component from a first position to a second position exposes the sensor to cause the sound generation components to generate a sound.

An electronic gaming table executes player-versus-player playing card games. The gaming table has a display screen where at least one random virtual playing card is virtually delivered to individual player positions for each of the multiple players. The electronic gaming table includes the display screen, a processor associated with memory, player input controls and a playing card masking element at each player position. The playing card masking system at each player position is positioned over an individual position that is a portion of the display screen where the processor directs delivery of the at least one random virtual playing card virtual face down. The playing card masking system includes a three-dimensional element having a visible light transmissive line of sight between the individual position and a player at the individual player position, while excluding visible light transmission to player positions across from or adjacent to the individual player position.
