  • Patent number: 10092822
    Abstract: A game is disclosed having two or more players, each player has a set of game pieces with the same front, and the back having an indication of rock, paper, or scissors. A game board has pre-designated positions for initial positioning of each player's game pieces such that each player may see the back of their respective game pieces and only the front of any other players', one of the positions being the winning position. In turn, each player moves any of their game pieces to an adjacent open position or may challenge another player to a position occupied by that player, the challenge being resolved in the traditional manner. The losing piece is removed from the board or, if a tie, the game pieces are left unchanged. Play ends upon one player occupying the winning position without being able to be challenged by any remaining player.
