Abstract
A board game including a game board device with a game board surface with a game board pattern. A transparent shield component is configured to cover the game board surface where a frame segment is disposed around a proximate edge of the game board surface and form a section of space between the game board surface and the transparent shield for containing at least one or more magnetic game piece implements. A stylus implement is configured to be operable for generally moving the at least one or more game piece implements from one position to another across the game board surface by magnetically attaching at least one game implement to the stylus implement and sliding the stylus implement across the transparent shield component.
Claims20
A device comprising:
- a game board for playing at least one of a game, a match, a contest, and a tournament;
- a game board surface, said game board surface comprises a game board pattern;
- a transparent shield component that is configured to, a large extent, cover said game board surface;
- a frame segment disposed around a proximate edge of said game board surface, wherein said frame segment is configured to produce a section of space between said game board surface and said transparent shield component;
- a space section formed between said transparent shield component and said game board surface;
- a game piece implement, said game piece implement is configured to, for the most part, fit within said space section;
- wherein said game piece implement may be configured to magnetically attach to said game board surface;
- and
- a stylus implement, said stylus implement is configured to be operable for magnetically lifting and sliding said game piece implement from one position to another across said game board surface.
A device comprising:
- means for representing opposing players of a game, in which said player representing means comprises one or more movable player representing means;
- means for magnetically supporting said one or more movable player representing means;
- means for indicating where a movable player representing means rests on said magnetic supporting means;
- means for covering said magnetic supporting means, wherein said covering means comprises a transparent covering means;
- means for providing a section of space between said magnetic supporting means and said transparent covering means;
- and
- means for magnetically lifting or moving said one or more movable player representing means from one position to another across said magnetic supporting means, wherein said one or more movable player representing means magnetically attaches to said moving means and slides across said transparent covering means.
A device comprising:
- a game board that is configured to be operable for playing a game;
- a game board surface, said game board surface comprises a game board pattern and may comprise a ferromagnetic layer;
- a transparent shield component that is configured to, a large extent, cover said game board surface;
- a frame segment disposed around a proximate edge of said game board surface, wherein said frame segment is configured to provide a space between said game board surface and said transparent shield component;
- a space section, wherein said space section is fundamentally formed between said transparent shield and said game board surface;
- a game piece implement, said game piece implement is configured to, for the most part, fit within said space section between said transparent shield component and said game board surface;
- and
- a stylus implement, said stylus implement is configured to magnetically lift or move said game piece implement from one position to another across said game board surface.
