Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPS57148976
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A board game including a number of generally similar rectangular tiles slidable relative to one another on a base to form a rectangular pattern with at least one vacant space equal in size to a tile. At least one groove is formed in the top surface of some of the tiles and more than one groove is formed in the top surfaces of others of the tiles with each groove extending from one side edge of a tile to another side edge of a tile. All grooves intersect the side edges of its tile at the midpoint of each side edge so that continuous paths can be formed on adjacent tiles if each adjacent tile has a groove extending to its side edges that is contiguous to an adjacent tile. Discontinuous paths are formed if one of the tiles does not have a groove extending to its side edge that is contiguous with an adjacent tile. A self-propelled vehicle is provided to move across the tiles. The vehicle has a guide which rides in the groove to direct the vehicle across the tile. An alarm is carried by the vehicle and the alarm is arranged to sound when the vehicle reaches the side edge of a tile.
