  • Patent number: 6325374
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for playing a board game comprises a rectangular game board having one hundred rectangular spaces of equal dimension, two each of the spaces having color and pictorial indicia different than color and pictorial indicia of any other two spaces. The board game further includes a first and second deck of cards having identical cards, each card having first and second indicia associated with the color and pictorial indicia of two spaces of the game board. The indicia of the cards is not identical to that of the spaces and requires an associative mental step to correspond a card with a respective space. The board game further includes tokens for positioning upon a space associated with a selected card. The method of play includes shuffling cards from the two decks into a single deck, distributing a predetermined number of cards to game players, and dividing the combined deck into two decks.
