  • Enhanced hide and seek game and method of playing game
    Patent number: 6494457
    Abstract: An enhanced game of hide and seek where the game participant searches for a hidden object having a transmitter device inside or attached to the object. The game participant utilizes a seeker unit that determines the distance between the object and the participant before and after the participant moves. The seeker unit uses that information to determine whether the participant is moving closer to or further away from the object and then communicates useful information to the game participant to assist the participant in finding the object. The participant interacts with the seeker unit to use and develop his or her logical reasoning skills in searching for the hidden object. The object can be a doll, stuffed animal, toy or any variety of other objects suitable for hiding and fun for finding.
