Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention focuses on the field of mass entertainment equipment, and strives to create a double-heart chess and its supporting equipment with novel structure and unique gameplay. It is widely used in family entertainment, social gatherings, educational teaching and other scenes, aiming to bring players a game experience full of novelty and strategy. Background Art

[0002] Traditional chess games have many drawbacks. For example, the first move advantage in chess and go is significant, which seriously undermines the fairness of the game; and Gobang often ends in a draw, which is not competitive and exciting. The root cause is that the linear structure and fixed gameplay of the traditional chessboard are too simple, which makes it difficult to meet the players' pursuit of fair competition and rich strategic experience. Therefore, the research and development of innovative chess games and supporting equipment has become a top priority. Summary of the invention

[0003] In order to effectively overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the core goal of the present invention is to create a unique chessboard, which is characterized by no corners and no edges (one chessboard with two centers), simple and clear rules, and completely bid farewell to draws. The specific implementation covers the following key aspects: 1. Chessboard design Board structure: The board is square, and the interior is precisely divided into two camps. Each camp is vertically interwoven with seven horizontal lines and fourteen vertical lines, forming 98 intersections. The entire board has a total of 196 points for placing pieces, providing players with a wide range of strategic space. The four corners of the board and the corresponding side lines are connected by arcs (such as Figure 2 ), this unique curved design not only gives the chessboard a unique appearance, but also lays the foundation for innovative gameplay and expansion of strategy.

[0004] Board function: The dual-camp design requires players to comprehensively coordinate the layout of chess pieces in the two areas, which deepens the strategic depth of the game and increases the difficulty of the challenge. The arcs on the edge of the board can form special lines when the chess piece distribution meets certain conditions, enriching the way to win.

[0005] 2. Chess Piece Combinations Chess pieces: Chess pieces are oblate and come in three colors: black, white and yellow, with 40 (or 60) pieces of each color. The yellow piece has a special property, as it has the identities of both black and white pieces, which greatly increases the strategy and fun of the game.

[0006] The role of chess pieces: Yellow chess pieces test the player's overall control and decision-making ability. Players need to comprehensively consider the situation of the game, the position of chess pieces and the opponent's strategy, and use yellow chess pieces reasonably to achieve strategic goals, such as completing key connections or disrupting the opponent's layout.

[0007] (III) Double Heart Chess Set The set includes a well-designed chessboard and chess pieces, which can provide a complete gaming experience. In addition, it is equipped with a special storage box for easy storage and carrying, which enhances the product's aesthetics and portability. The chessboard and chess pieces are made of a variety of materials, including plastic, wood, acrylic, etc., to meet the needs of different players. Plastic materials are low-cost, durable and easy to clean; wood has a natural texture; acrylic has high transparency and beautiful appearance.

[0008] 4. Game Method Two-player game play: During the game, the black player places a chess piece first, and then the two players take turns, placing a chess piece in each of the two camps at a time, until the winner is determined or all the chess pieces are placed, and the game ends.

[0009] Three-player game: Black plays the first chess piece, and then the three players take turns to play. A and B form a duo, using black and yellow chess pieces; C uses white and yellow chess pieces. Each player in the duo is responsible for playing chess in one camp, and can play one chess piece at a time; the single player plays one chess piece in each of the two camps at a time, until the winner is determined or the chess pieces are all played, and the game ends.

[0010] (V) Connection rules General connection rules: When chess pieces are closely arranged horizontally, vertically or diagonally in a continuous sequence of 7 or more, it is considered a general connection. This is a common way to win, and it tests the player's observation, layout ability and situation prediction ability.

[0011] Special connection rules: When the chess pieces are on a certain line (starting line) and there is a line (target line) parallel to it and connected to the edge of the chessboard, the player uses the arc of the chessboard to connect the chess pieces on the two lines to form a continuous sequence of 7 or more closely arranged pieces, which is considered a special connection. Special connections break the limitations of traditional connections, using the arc of the chessboard to open up new strategic paths for players, enriching the strategic depth and fun of the game.

[0012] (VI) Special Provisions for Yellow Pieces During the game, every time you place a yellow chess piece, you must give a yellow chess piece to the opponent.

[0013] 7. Winning and losing criteria Standard 1: In the game, the first party to connect seven pieces wins. If one party wins and the other party loses, the game ends.

[0014] Criterion 2: The side that makes its move first wins, and the other side loses, and the game ends. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0015] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the double-heart chessboard structure of the present invention. When showing the arc design of the chessboard, in order to keep the diagram simple and clear, only one of the two arcs is shown. The four corners of the four sides of the actual chessboard are connected to the corresponding side lines by arcs, and the overall appearance is unique. Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 The same chessboard, Figure 2 The structure is basically the same, except for the number of spots on the board, but the method of use is exactly the same.

[0016] Figure 1 : The chessboard adopts a 12×12 format and has 144 intersection points for placing pieces. This layout is relatively compact and is particularly suitable for two-person games. Players can engage in strategic games in a limited space.

[0020] (I) The double-heart chess of the present invention is composed of a chessboard and chess pieces, including four chessboards (such as Figure 1-4 ), three sets.

[0021] Set 1: Chessboard Figure 1 The chess pieces are oblate and come in three colors: black, white and yellow, with 20 pieces of each color.

[0022] Set 2: Chessboard Figure 2 The chess pieces are oblate and come in three colors: black, white and yellow, with 40 pieces of each color.

[0023] Set 3: Front of chessboard Figure 3 ,back Figure 4 The chess pieces come in three colors: black, white and yellow, with 60 pieces of each color.

[0024] (II) The rules of the double heart chess of the present invention are simple, easy to learn and fun to play. You can start with this simple gameplay. A simple gameplay rule of the double heart chess is as follows: Prepare The chessboard is 12×12 in size, with 144 positions. Black side: 20 black pieces, 10 yellow pieces. White side: 20 white pieces, 10 yellow pieces. Among them, the yellow pieces can be considered as your own pieces, or the opponent's pieces (the yellow pieces belong to both sides).

[0025] How to move During the game, the black player places a piece first, and then both players take turns placing pieces, one at a time, until all pieces are placed or the winner is decided and the game ends.

[0026] During the game, each time you place a yellow chess piece, you must give 1 yellow chess piece to the opponent.

[0027] Each chess piece on the four sides of the board can be used (one counts as two).

[0028] Winning and losing criteria - Standard 1: The first player to connect 5 of his own pieces in a line horizontally, vertically or diagonally wins.

[0029] - Standard 2: The side that makes its move first wins.

[0030] (III) Beneficial effects 1. The origin of the name of Double Heart Chess The chessboard is a square with the four corners connected to the corresponding side lines by arcs. When the chessboard is folded, you will find that the arcs are magically transformed into horizontal or vertical lines. The four corners that were originally far away from the center move to the center of the back of the chessboard and completely overlap with the corresponding area on the front, as if two closely connected hearts. This is how the name "Double Heart Chess" comes from.

[0031] 2. Yellow chess piece, the weight on the scale of victory or defeat In the chess piece combination, the yellow chess piece is the key factor that determines the outcome of the battle. It has no defensive ability and needs to be used with extreme caution. Once used carelessly, it is likely to be used by the opponent and become a hidden danger of defeat. However, if you dare not use it because of fear of risks, you will also face difficulties. Even if you use only one less yellow chess piece than the opponent, it may lead to serious consequences. When both sides fill the chessboard and the game ends, the party that first finishes playing all the chess pieces wins. This requires players to constantly weigh whether to use yellow chess pieces based on the situation of the game, the layout of the chess pieces, and the opponent's strategy at every decision. Every decision is full of variables and challenges. This unique design not only avoids the situation of a draw in the game, but also adds great uncertainty and strategic depth to the game, fully testing the player's overall control ability and decision-making level, making every game full of tension and excitement.

[0032] 3. The Balance of the Yellow Piece Rules In the game, every time a yellow chess piece is played, a yellow chess piece must be given to the opponent. This rule is of great significance. Although the yellow chess piece has special properties and can bring unique tactical ideas to players, it is extremely difficult to use because of its "ambiguous identity". On the one hand, it is easy for the opponent to use it to help the opponent complete the key connection and put itself into a passive position; on the other hand, when the two sides fail to achieve a connection and the game ends, the party with more yellow chess pieces will lose the game. The rule of sending yellow chess pieces cleverly balances the risks and benefits of yellow chess pieces. It encourages players to actively use yellow chess pieces. While increasing the flexibility of their own layout, it reduces the risk of being used by sending chess pieces, and can also reduce the possibility of losing the game due to holding too many yellow chess pieces in the end. This rule encourages players to think carefully when using yellow chess pieces, fully tap their tactical value, and enhance the strategy and fun of the game.

[0033] 4. Double camp setting, balanced start In traditional chess games, the first-hand advantage often breaks the balance of the game. The double-camp setting of the double-heart chess of the present invention cleverly solves this problem. Players need to arrange chess pieces in two camps at the same time, making it difficult for the first-hand player to quickly control the overall situation with a single advantage. The second-hand player can also use reasonable planning to implement strategies in the two camps to achieve a reversal of the situation. This design creates more equal starting conditions for both parties, lays the tone of fair competition from the beginning of the game, allows each player to fully implement strategies in a fair environment, and improves the competitiveness and strategic nature of the game.

[0034] 5. Arc design, dual center fusion The unique arc design of the chessboard not only gives it a unique appearance, but also brings innovative gameplay. When the chessboard is folded, a magical change occurs, the arc is transformed into horizontal and vertical lines, and the four corners that were originally far away from the center move to the center of the back of the chessboard, overlapping with the corresponding area on the front, forming a unique layout of one chessboard with two centers. This design breaks the monotonous structure of the traditional chessboard and opens up a new strategic space for players. During the game, players can use arcs to connect chess pieces to form special lines, breaking through the conventional layout ideas, greatly enriching the strategic depth and fun of the game, allowing players to experience the fun brought by innovative gameplay in every game.

[0035] 6. No draw rule to ensure fair competition In traditional chess games, a draw often leaves players wanting more, and also reduces the competitiveness of the game. Double Heart Chess completely says goodbye to a draw, and each game has a clear outcome. The first player to connect seven pieces wins. If neither side achieves a connection, the first player to finish placing all the pieces wins. This rule eliminates the possibility of passive play and a draw, and encourages players to go all out and actively plan for victory at every step. At the same time, this clear way of determining victory and defeat ensures the fairness and competitiveness of the game, allowing players to feel the tense and exciting competitive atmosphere in every game, fully satisfying players' pursuit of competitive games.

[0036] 7. Double Heart Chess features, all-round innovative experience Double Heart Chess integrates a variety of innovative designs to bring players a unique all-round experience. From the novel chessboard design, to the unique chess piece combination, to the innovative game rules and connection methods, every element has been carefully conceived. The double camp setting deepens the strategic depth, the yellow chess pieces add strategic variables, the arc design expands the gameplay space, and the no-draw rule enhances competitiveness. Whether it is a casual game during family entertainment, an interactive competition at a social gathering, or a thinking training in puzzle teaching, Double Heart Chess can rely on its unique charm to bring players a novel and strategic game experience, becoming an innovative model in the field of mass entertainment equipment.
