Abstract: A game of skill is disclosed which consists of a playing grille having square shaped openings formed of sheet material of a depth such that the openings are each substantially cubic in dimensions. The grille is supported with the openings disposed horizontally in parallel relation with one opening at the bottom and succeding rows of 3, 5, 7, 5, 3 and 1 openings, respectively. The grille therefore consists of 25 openings, accessible from either side, in an array as just described. The game also includes 25 dice, each of a size just fitting the openings in the grille. The game is played by two players inserting individual dice, in turn, from opposite sides of the grille. Whenever a player inserts a die which produces a sum of three or more dice equal to a multiple of seven, he scores such a sum. The sums of dice may be up-down, sideways or diagonal. The game continues, restarting if necessary, until one player reaches 1000 points (or other agreed score).

Abstract: A multi-level game board apparatus, adapted to be played with playing pieces such as chess men or the like, consists of a chess or checker board divided into a plurality of levels for play. The board appears, in plan view, to have the arrangement of bilaterally colored dark and light squares of the shape and number of squares of a conventional chess or checker board. The board, however, is separated into a central portion at one level and a plurality of surrounding portions of square configuration separately supported at least at one other level. The separate square portions supported at another level are separately supported on support members permitting rotation of each square portion about its center. In the play of the game, the playing pieces are placed on the board initially, and are moved, as if all of the portions of the board were in a single plane.
