Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] This is a board game set that effectively combines educational elements, using numbers to engage learning, strategy, and thought-provoking games. [Background technology]
[0002] There are products that deal with numbers, but there are no products that combine elements of board games such as shogi with arithmetic operations.
[0003] A combination of board game elements and arithmetic operations. To provide a board game set.
[0004] The invention is a board game set that includes a board with a grid of squares with the same number of rows and columns, and pieces with numbers written on them, the same number as the number of squares, and the numbers are arranged in order from 1, The pieces are distinguishable between odd and even numbers, and the odd and even pieces are played against each other, with the calculation values for columns, rows, and diagonals being set to be different.
[0005] By playing games using this board game set, you will not only improve your calculation skills, but also your reasoning and thinking abilities. Its contribution at the initial stage in the field of education is significant. This board game will naturally help you become good at multiple addition calculations. It can also be used as a communication tool between parents and children. The reason is that it is a simple calculation and arrangement, so even if one person is smarter, it is not a handicap. If two people can do double-digit addition, there is almost no difference. Victory or defeat is determined by placement and luck. [Brief description of the drawings]
[0006] [Figure 1] 1 is an overall view of the present invention; [Diagram 2] FIG. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0007] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the illustrated embodiment. FIG. 1(A) is a plan view of the board of the present invention; (B) is a plan view of various number plates. This game board set consists of a board with a grid of squares with the same number of rows and columns, and a board with numbers written on it with the same number of squares. The board game set includes pieces 2 and the numbers are arranged in order starting from 1. The pieces are distinguishable between odd and even numbers, Odd and even numbers are played against each other, and the calculation values for columns, rows, and diagonals are set to be different.
[0008] In the example shown, the board is 4 squares wide and 4 squares tall, for a total of 16 squares. The number pieces go from 1 to 16 in order. Of these, odd numbers are colored white and even numbers are colored black. They are color-coded to make them easy to distinguish. You can color code the pieces or you can color code the numbers.
[0009] How to use Figure 2 is an explanatory diagram of how to use it. Used in two-player matches. One is odd, the other is Have even numbered pieces. Place the pieces in order. (See Figure 2(A)) This is a game in which players use arithmetic operations to compare the values of columns, rows, and diagonals to determine the winner. You determine your score by placing your numbers on the spaces in the grid. Numbers can only be placed above, below, or to the left or right of your own previous numbers, and above, below, or to the left or right of your opponent's last number. Figure 2(B) shows the state at the end of the game: odd 43, even 46 However, because the sums of the odd and even numbers are different, a handicap (3.5) is added to the odd number, and the calculated value of the odd number and the handicap is 46.5, so the odd number wins. Since there is a difference between the sum of odd and even numbers, odd numbers are given a certain amount of handicap points. Also, players can decide the rules to play against each other. The basic operation is addition, but other methods are also acceptable. [Explanation of symbols]
