Abstract
A children's building block crashing game and a method of conducting the building block crashing game in which building block assembly structures are crashed upon collision. Players assemble personally designed or preconfigured building block sets which meet the game restrictions on size and thickness, and then crash them together by sliding the structures down a low friction mat through a protective plastic shield. The player with the last piece remaining in the tunnel wins the round.
Claims20
A building block crashing game for crashing building block assembly structures together, comprising:
- a first building block assembly structure including a first building block part removably connected to a second building block part, the first building block part and the second building block part configured to be removable from one another when a collision force applied during collision with another building block assembly structure is sufficient to remove the first building block part and the second building block part from one another;
- a second building block assembly structure including a third building block part removably connected to a fourth building block part, the third building block part and the fourth building block part configured to be removable from one another upon a collision force applied during collision with another building block assembly structure that is sufficient to remove the third building block part and the fourth building block part from one another;
- a sliding surface for sliding the first building block assembly structure and the second building block assembly structure towards each other on the mat in order to cause collision of the first building block assembly structure and the second building block assembly;
- and
- a protective shield having a portion positioned on or around the mat for containing the first building block assembly structure and the second building block assembly structure after the collision.
A method for crashing building block assembly structures together, the method comprising steps of:
- providing a first building block assembly structure including a first plurality of removably connected building block parts;
- providing a second building block assembly structure including a second plurality of removably connected building block parts;
- providing a mat for allowing sliding of building block assemblies;
- providing a protective shield having a part positioned on or around the mat, the protective shield and the mat forming a tunnel;
- and
- sliding the first building block assembly structure and the second building structure towards each other on the mat and within the protective shield in order to cause collision of the first building block assembly structure and the second building block assembly structure and to cause removal or disassembly of the first plurality of removably connected building block parts and removal or disassembly of the second plurality of removably connected building block parts.
