A game for two or more players wherein each player is provided a card having rows and columns of spaces in a matrix formation. A number is placed in the space at the intersertion of each row and column. The columns are five in number having the letters, B, I, N, G and O respectively at the head of each of the five columns. A pair of dice having six faces each are provided. The six faces of one dice carry indicia B1, I2, N3, G4, O5 and DICE respectively. The six faces of the second dice carry the numerals 2 through 7 respectively. The combination of indicia on the upturned faces of the two dice after being cast, provide an indication corresponding to certain of the numbers in ones of the spaces on the various playing cards. When the combination number appears on a players card, he is entitled to place one of a plurality of markers provided for the purpose on the space in the matrix containing the number. The players have as an object to obtain a predetermined pattern on the face of their playing card in as few a number of dice casts as possible. A record sheet is provided to record each of the combinations appearing on the upturned dice faces during the game.
A game comprising a plurality of playing cards having playing surfaces, indicia on said playing surfaces deliniating a plurality of areas arranged in five vertical columns and five horizontal rows, each of said plurality of areas having located therein a symbol specific thereto, first and second dice each having a plurality of die faces, indicia on ones of said first die faces, including a letter and a number, indicia on ones of said second die faces including different numbers, so that the combination of said dice face indicia from one face of each die corresponds to said symbol specific to one of said plurality of areas on ones of said plurality of playing cards, and a plurality of markers each formed to lie within one of said plurality of areas, whereby successive casting of said pair of dice produces a succession of upturned dice face indicia combinations, so that when said succession of combinations is marked by placing ones of said plurality of markers to overlie corresponding symbols in ones of said plurality of areas, a pattern is created on said playing surfaces wherein the purpose is to duplicate by chance a predetermined pattern on one of said playing surfaces.
A game comprising a plurality of playing cards having playing surfaces, indicia on said playing surfaces deliniating a plurality of areas arranged in vertical columns and horizontal rows, each of said plurality of area having located therein a symbol specific thereto, a pair of dice having a plurality of dice faces, dice face indicia on each of said dice faces, so that the combination of said dice face indicia from one face of each die corresponds to said symbol specific to one of said plurality of areas on ones of said plurality of playing cards, said die face indicia on a first one of said pair of dice including numerals 2 through 7, said die face indicia on a second one of said pair of dice including B1, I2, N3, G4, and O5, said vertical columns being five in number, together with letters B, I, N, G and O for designating said five vertical columns, so that when ones of the formentioned dice face indicia are upturned on said first and second ones in said pair of dice the combined upturned dice face indicia contain a letter indicative of one of said vertical columns and a two digit number indicative of one of said symbols in said one vertical column and a plurality of markers each formed to lie within one of said plurality of areas, whereby successive casting of said pair of dice produces a succession of upturned dice face indicia, so that when said succession of indicia is marked by placing ones of said plurality of markers to overlie corresponding symbols in ones of said plurality of areas, a pattern is created on said playing surfaces for the purpose of duplicating a predetermined pattern on one of said playing surfaces.
A game comprising a plurality of playing cards having playing surfaces, a plurality of areas deliniated on said playing surfaces arranged in a matrix of columns and rows, distinct column symbols for each of said columns located on said playing surfaces, distinct area symbols located within each of said plurality of areas, said area symbols having random arrangement in each of said columns, first and second dice each having six die faces, indicia on five of said six die faces on said first die including one of said distinct column symbols and portions of one of said distinct area symbols, indicia on the last of said six die faces on said first die providing a portion of one of said distinct area symbols having random arrangement in any of said rows, indicia on ones of said six die faces on said second die including additional portions of one of said distinct area symbols, whereby the combination of indicia from one face of each of said first and second dice corresponds to one of said plurality of areas on ones of said plurality of playing cards, and a plurality of markers for placing within ones of said plurality of areas, whereby successive casting of said first and second dice provides indication of ones of said plurality of areas, and placement of one of said markers on each of said areas so indicated creates a pattern of markers on said playing surfaces.
