Abstract: A BOGGLE brand word game apparatus having a plurality of dice enclosed in an interior chamber formed in upper and lower container shells. A dice collector, a lens and a ring shaped collar are connected to the upper container shell, and a ring shaped cam, a dice platform and an alignment plate are mounted to the lower container shell. The collar includes a flange extending from an inner surface, and the cam includes a flange extending from an outer surface. The cam, when fastened to the lower container shell, captures the platform. Rotation of the upper container shell in a first direction, when the lower container shell is held stationary, causes the cam to move the platform to enlarge the dice chamber.

Abstract: A BOGGLE brand word game apparatus having a plurality of dice enclosed in an interior chamber formed in upper and lower container shells. The object of the game is for each player to find as many three and four letter words as possible formed by adjoining dice before three minutes expire. A point system determines the winner.

Abstract: A game apparatus for an abstract strategy pattern building board game that has two walls, each with multiple apertures. A number of dividers are intermediate the two wall and form multiple channels disposed along the two walls. The dividers also form multiple gaps defined by spaces between the channels. Two sets of playing markers are used to build patterns during game play. One set of playing markers fills a single channel along one wall, and one set of playing markers fills two channels and a gap in between the two channels.

Abstract: A game apparatus for a strategic pattern building board game with a feature for ejecting playing markers is defined. The game board has a multiplicity of channels having a first end and an opposite second end for receiving and ejecting playing markers respectively. The multiplicity of channels may be disposed between a first wall having a multiplicity of first apertures that define a matrix within the first wall and a second wall having a multiplicity of second apertures juxtaposed relative to the first wall. One or more openings disposed at the second end allow a player to eject playing markers. A retainer may be used to maintain playing markers in the matrix, and the retainer may comprise a pivoting and shifting set of bars that allows or prevents ejecting and emptying the matrix of playing markers. Some playing markers have indicia that define game play.

A dice collector, a lens and a ring shaped collar are connected to the upper container shell, and a ring shaped cam, a dice platform and an alignment plate are mounted to the lower container shell. The collar includes a flange extending from an inner surface, and the cam includes a flange extending from an outer surface. The collar and the cam are slipped together to prevent separation; however, the collar and the cam are able to rotate relative to one another. The collar, when fastened to the upper container shell, captures the dice collector. The cam, when fastened to the lower container shell, captures the platform. Rotation of the upper container shell in a first direction, when the lower container shell is held stationary, causes the cam to move the platform to enlarge the dice chamber.
