Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a board play equipment. [Background technology]

[0002] In Reversi, if there is a difference in skill between the two players, a handicap can be set so that the stronger player places one to four of the weaker player's Reversi stones in the corners of the board before starting the match, but the stronger player is familiar with the winning strategies, just like in shogi when players are handicapped, and is therefore more likely to win. In addition, in the game disclosed in Patent Document 1, the first player uses one or more stones with black marks on both sides, and the second player uses one or more stones with white marks on both sides, making the game more complex and interesting. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 62-119981 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] If only players with inferior skills use stones marked as disclosed in Patent Document 1, and the difference in skill between the two players is small, the player with inferior skills has a high chance of beating the player with superior skills. However, if the difference in skill between the two players is large, the player with inferior skills has a low chance of beating the player with superior skills, depending on the number of marked stones.

[0005] To provide a board game in which a player with less skill has a high possibility of beating a player with more skill, even if there is a large difference in skill between the two players.

[0006] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a board game equipment as described in claim 1, which is a board game equipment in which two players play against each other using 64 Reversi stones, and which includes a board used for the game and at least one special stone with a mark on the top and / or bottom surface that can flip the attacked Reversi stones even if there is an attacking Reversi stone between the attacked Reversi stones.

[0007] In addition, the special stone described in claim 2 has a recess or uneven portion on the upper surface and / or the lower surface.

[0008] The board game equipment described in claim 3 is provided with a first storage section for storing 32 reversi stones required for a match or a total of 32 reversi stones and special stones required for a match, and a second storage section for storing special stones not required for a match or special stones and reversi stones not required for a match.

[0009] In addition, the special stone described in claim 4 is one of the 64 reversi stones used by the two players on the board, and even if there is an attacking reversi stone between the attacked side's lined up reversi stones, it can flip the attacked side's reversi stone and has a mark on the top and / or bottom surface. Effect of the Invention

[0010] According to the present invention, the board game equipment described in claim 1 allows the less skilled player to use at least one of the 32 reversi stones as a special stone when two players play against each other, thereby narrowing the skill gap between the less skilled player and the more skilled player, making the game more interesting and helping the less skilled player improve more quickly.

[0011] In addition, the special stone described in claim 2 has a different shape of the upper and / or lower surface from the reversible stone, so that a person using the special stone can tell that it is a special stone just by touching it with his / her finger.

[0012] In addition, the board game equipment described in claim 3 has the effect that at least one player does not mistake the total number of reversi stones and special stones stored in the first storage section because the first storage section cannot structurally store more than 32 stones. Also, since there is a second storage section for storing reversi stones and special stones that are not required for a match, it is easy to use when playing a match.

[0013] In addition, the special stone described in claim 4 can flip the attacked side's reversi stone even if there is an attacking side's reversi stone between the attacked side's lined up reversi stones, so that an inferior player can potentially beat a superior player, making the game more interesting and also making it easier for an inferior player to improve quickly.

[Figure 4] FIG. 13 is a top view showing a state of a match at the end of the board play equipment according to the embodiment. [Diagram 5] 13 is a top view showing a state of a game in which a special stone has been placed on the board play equipment according to the embodiment. FIG. [Figure 6] FIG. 11 is a top view showing a state in which a match has ended in the board play equipment according to the embodiment. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0015] Unlike Othello (registered trademark), Reversi allows players to freely arrange the four stones at the beginning of the game, but we will assume that the four Reversi stones are arranged in the same way as the rules of Othello (registered trademark). We will also assume that the total number of Reversi stones is 32 x 2 = 64, with the first player using one first special stone and the second player not using a second special stone.

[0016] An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figs. 1 to 6, in which the first player is an inferior player who uses reversi stones 21 of the same color as reversi, with the upper surface and the upper half of the side being black and the lower surface and the lower half of the side being white, and the second player is an inferior player who uses reversi stones 22 of the same color as reversi, with the upper surface and the upper half of the side being white and the lower surface and the lower half of the side being black. As shown in Figs. 1 to 3, the board game equipment 1 is configured to store 29 reversi stones 21 used by the first player of the two players and one first special stone 31 with black upper and lower surfaces (a in Fig. 2) and white in the center, black side (b in Fig. 2) and a recess in the center (c in Fig. 2) in a first storage section 41 provided on the board 10. Also, the remaining one reversi stone 21 not used by the first player and the remaining nine first special stones 31 are configured to be stored in a second storage section 51 provided on the board 10.

[0017] The board 10 is configured to store 30 reversi stones 22 used by the second player in a third storage section 42. The board 10 is also configured to store 10 second special stones 32 that can be used by the second player, each of which has white upper and lower surfaces (d in FIG. 3) and black in the center, and white sides (e in FIG. 3) with a recess in the center (f in FIG. 3). For convenience of explanation, the reversi stones of the first player are numbered "21" and the reversi stones of the second player are numbered "22", but they are the same stone.

[0018] By configuring as described above, even in the end game where the first player is at a disadvantage as shown in FIG. 4, when the first player places a special stone 31 in row H1, as shown in FIG. 5, the first player's reversal stones 21 are in row B1 and row H7, so the first player can flip the second player's reversal stones 22 in rows C to F1, row H2, and row H4 to 6, even if the first player's reversal stones 21 are in row G1 and row H3. As described above, the first special stone 31 can flip the second player's reversal stones 22, even if the first player's reversal stones 21 are between the second player's reversal stones 22. As shown in FIG. 6, the first player and the second player then play their best moves, and the first player can win against the second player by a difference of 6 stones.

[0019] In the example of FIG. 1, the first player can use up to 10 special stones 31, which reduces the skill gap with the second player who is significantly superior, making the game more interesting. In addition, the second special stone 32 of the second player can also flip the first player's reversi stone 21 even if there is a reversi stone 22 of the second player between the reversi stones 21 of the first player. Up until now, the first player has been described as being inferior in skill, and the second player as being superior in skill, but even if the two players have almost the same skill, they can use both the first special stone 31 and the second special stone 32 and have an interesting game. Except for the case where the first special stone 31 and the second special stone 32 are used, the game rules are exactly the same as Reversi.

[0020] Any modification is possible within the scope of the present invention. For example, the position of the white color of the first special stone 31 and the position of the black color of the second special stone 32 may be a part different from the center. The number of white colors of the first special stone 31 and the number of black colors of the second special stone 32 may be plural. The first special stone 31 may have a thin white color around the black color, and the second special stone 32 may have a thin black color around the white color. The shape of the colored parts in the center and around the first special stone 31 and the second special stone 32 may be changed from a circle to a triangle, a square, or a star. The color of the first special stone 31 and the second special stone 32 is not limited to white or black and may be changed to another color. The marks of the first special stone 31 and the second special stone 32 may be letters, numbers, symbols, and patterns in the narrow sense. The central recess of the first special stone 31 and the second special stone 32 may be provided on only one side, not both sides. The upper surface and / or lower surface of the first special stone 31 and the second special stone 32 may be linear concaves and convexes or circular concaves and convexes. The horizontal width of the first storage section 51 and the second storage section 52 may be increased to make it easier to remove stones. The horizontal width of the first storage section 41 and the second storage section 42 may be increased and the height of the increased bottom section may be made higher than the height of the bottom section of the storage section to make it easier to remove stones. The first storage section 41 and the second storage section 51, and the first storage section 42 and the second storage section 52 may each be integrated and separated from the board 10.
