3-dimensional logic game
A 3-dimensional logic game has a support structure, an actuating structure attached to the support structure and game elements attached to the actuating structure. The game elements are formed as carriages provided with first and second marking surfaces and are slidably mounted on rails attached to the actuating structure. The actuating structure is movable between a first and a second rest position. In the first rest position, a first group of three rails form first rail rings around vertices of a first tetrahedron wherein the first marking surfaces of the carriages are facing outwardly, while the second marking surfaces are facing inwardly. In the second rest position, a second group of three rails form second rail rings around vertices of a second tetrahedron while in the point reflection of the first tetrahedron reflected over the geometric centre thereof.
