A spherical puzzle includes a portable body having a central core, a plurality of co-extensively shaped sections rotatably disposed about the central core, a plurality of locking mechanisms associated with the sections, respectively, and a plurality of hemispherical travel paths configured about the body. Advantageously, the sections are dynamically configured to freely rotate along the hemispherical travel paths to create a desired pattern. In this manner, locking mechanisms slidably engage the sections such that each section remain rotatably aligned along the hemispherical travel paths and about the central core.

A sliding intelligence toy including a housing, two fixed pads fixed at two inner ends of the housing, a movable pad located between the two fixed pads, a connecting shaft structure passing through the two fixed pads and the movable pad, a first block structure and a second block structure. One end of the connecting shaft structure sticks out from one end of the housing and can move along the axial direction of the housing and rotate along the radial direction of the housing under the action of an external force, and the movable pad can rotate with the rotation of the connecting shaft structure. The sliding intelligent toy has a simple game principle, can be operated easily and flexibly and set clear levels of difficulty, which is challenging.

A multi-axis rotational puzzle cube has a core unit and multiple first operating assemblies and multiple second operating assemblies rotatably assembled to the core unit. Each one of the multiple first operating assemblies has a first operating unit connected to the core unit, a snap rivet connected to the first operating unit inside the core unit, a blocking tube mounted around and stuck with the snap rivet, and a compression spring mounted around the snap rivet and abutting against the core unit and the blocking tube simultaneously. Each one of the multiple second operating assemblies has a second operating unit connected to the core unit, a snap rivet connected to the second operating unit inside the core unit, a blocking tube mounted around and stuck with the snap rivet, and a compression spring mounted around the snap rivet and abutting against the core unit and the blocking tube simultaneously.

A sliding puzzle toy is provided, including a main body and sliders slidably connected to the main body. The main body includes two bottom walls and a side wall, wherein at least one of the two bottom walls is provided with a recessed slot and a separable block, one side of the recessed slot is connected to the side wall, an arc transition is provided at a connection between the recessed slot and the side wall, and the separable block is movably or detachably connected to the recessed slot. The outer surface of the side wall is provided with sliding grooves that intersects with each other along circumferential and longitudinal directions, the sliding grooves are movably connected to the sliders, and one of the longitudinal sliding grooves passes through a connection between the recessed slot and the side wall and extends towards a bottom wall of the recessed slot.

An apparatus, an element for a game assembly, and a game assembly apparatus. The apparatus includes a three-dimensional body having a geometric shape and which is displaceable between an initial state and a goal state that is different from said initial state. A motion-restriction function is to limit the displacement of a centre point of the body with respect to a centre point of another body along a trajectory. At least one sensor is to provide input regarding the presence of another body in contact with the body and which is to allow the displacement of the body based on the input. A computer program is to allow displacement of the body based at least part of on a factor of randomness.

A sphere puzzle having a plurality of sliding blocks, a series of protrusions, and first rails. The sliding blocks move in a double row along rings on tracks through the necks and under the bottom surfaces of second rails and stay fixed in their correct position with the help of a sliding ball on dents of the rings. A missing block enables movements with a large number of combinations, in order to complete required designs on the sphere surface.

A system having at least a first, a second and a third three-dimensional element, each element including a center point in the element, and a face with a motion-guiding module, coupled to the center point and defining a trajectory over the element, a motion module, adapted for displacing the center point with respect to a second center point of one of the other elements using the motion-guiding module of that other element, a motion-restriction module, adapted for limiting the displacement of the center point with respect to the second center point to at least one trajectory selected from the group which includes the trajectory and a second trajectory of the other element.

A game, and a method for playing a game, that includes providing an initial shape of a plurality of elements, and an end shape that includes the elements by displacing, using a motion module for at least one element, which motion function provides the at least one element with its own movement ability relative to the other elements, in which the end shape is different than the initial shape; providing a set of parameters which together with the end shape determine losing or winning the game. The game is completed on a basis of the parameters and a position of the elements in relation to the end shape.
