Abstract
A game comprising a playing surface having an upward fence-like projection having an opening therethrough and game pieces containing magnets so that a player manipulating one game piece may attempt to propel by magnetic force another game piece through said opening. The magnetic poles in the game pieces are in a plane parallel to the playing surface. The upward fence-like projection may divide the playing surface into a plurality of starting spaces and a finishing space with an opening from each starting space to the finishing space. The finishing space may be in the center of the playing surface surrounded by the starting spaces.
Claims1
A game comprising a playing surface having an upward fence-like projection dividing the playing surface into a plurality of starting spaces and a finishing space with an opening from each starting space to the finishing space, each starting space being bounded laterally by radial elements of the upward fence-like projection and the opening from each starting space to the finishing space being of less width than the distance between the inner ends of the radial elements of the upward fence-like projection bounding laterally the starting space, and game pieces containing magnets all disposed above the playing surface so that a player manipulating one game piece may attempt to propel by magnetic force another game piece through one of said openings.
