Translucent electronic board game with magnetic pawn

A board game apparatus including, in combination:

• a. a board having a array of translucent playing spaces constituting a path or course extending about said board;
• b. the playing spaces having respective designations for:
• start, finish, white, green, and CD;
• c. a spinner having blue, red, and green holes therein said spinner being secured to the top surface of said board adjacent to the finish space;
• d. a spinner indicator secured to the top surface of said board adjacent to said spinner;
• e. draw cards having red, blue, and green spots thereon used to match the color holes of said spinner as designated by said spinner indicator;
• f. a plurality of light means located under certain, but less than all, of said playing spaces secured to said board game, said light means having an on/off switch, reed switch, lightbulb, and energy source in a closed circuit;
• g. a plurality of magnetic playing pieces, said playing pieces each having the same polarity at their top, said playing pieces being used for movement between the array of playing spaces in accordance with the rules of the game;
• h. a mover object, said mover object having magnetic means for advancing said magnetic playing pieces along the array of playing spaces, said light means being activated as said mover object causes the advancement of a magnetic playing piece into certain playing spaces on said board.

In a board game apparatus:

• a. a board having a plurality of playing positions consitituting a path or course extending about said board, the playing positions having respective designations for start, finish, light, white, green and CD;
• b. a spinner having blue, red, and green holes therein, said spinner being secured to the top surface of said board near the finish space;
• c. a die to determine the extent of the players movement along the plurality of playing spaces;
• d. a spinner indicator secured to the top surface of said board adjacent to said spinner;
• e. draw cards having red, blue, and green spots thereon used to match the color holes of said spinner as designated by said spinner indicator, said cards to be drawn by players as determined by chance;
• f. means for lighting certain, but not all, of said plurality of playing positions, said means for lighting being secured under said board;
• g. a plurality of magnetic playing pieces, said playing pieces each having the same polarity at their top;
• and
• h. a mover object, said mover object having a magnet disposed therein so that its top has the same polarity as the top of said playing piece, said light means being activated as said mover object causes the advancement of a magnetic playing piece into certain playing positions on said board;
• i. whereby said playing pieces being advanced over the playing positions by the magnetic repulsive flux emitted from said magnetic playing pieces and mover object as said mover object is brought into close proximity during the game play.

A board apparatus, comprising:

• a. a frame;
• b. a playing surface secured to said frame having an array of playing positions from start to finish thereon;
• c. a bottom secured to said frame below said playing surface;
• d. magnetic playing pieces having a top portion, said playing pieces having disposed therein a permanent magnet so that all of said playing pieces have the same polarity at their tops;
• e. a mover object having a top portion, said mover object having disposed therein a permanent magnet, the permanent magnet being so positioned in said mover object that its top has the same polarity as the top of said playing pieces;
• f. light means secured to said bottom under a plurality of certain, but not all, of said playing positions, said light means being activated as said mover object causes the advancement of a magnetic playing piece into certain playing positions on said game board;
• and
• g. a spinner secured to the top of said playing surface ;
• whereby said playing pieces being advanced over the array of playing positions by the magnetic repulsive flux emitted from said magnetic playing pieces and mover object as said mover object is brought into close proximity during the game play.
