Abstract: A game board is shown having a playing surface with a map and a game playing path thereon. The players (two or more) move their markers or talismen along the path. The path can be optionally a slot or groove, a series of peg holes, or a marked mileage strip. By a chance mechanism, player movement is determined. The preferred talisman carries a torch with simulated light from a bulb provided with battery power.

Abstract: This disclosure is directed to a game board, one embodiment incorporating a carrying case which encloses a stack of inserts. While the inserts appear differently, they all provide game playing paths thereon to simulate running, swimming and other sporting events. Moreover, a typical insert has top and bottom faces which present different images thereon. Each is formed of a laminate presenting upper or lower images, and there is a magnetically attracted layer therein to enable a talisman having a magnet in the base to move thereon in accordance with the rules of play. A convenient carrying case is incorporated with storage compartments for the various markers and other equipment as well as for a stack of the images. A CD ROM software package is likewise included.
