  • Patent number: 5560611
    Abstract: A mathematical game is comprised of a game board with holes arranged in a regular array and playing pieces bearing integer numbers. Players compete to combine the playing pieces and mathematical operations to form a mathematical expression which equals a given answer. Playing pieces used in these mathematical expressions are placed on the game board on the holes. After all holes are filled with playing pieces, playing pieces are stacked on top of the previous layer of pieces by putting the playing pieces into gaps created by the playing pieces of the lower level. More levels of playing pieces are assembled as the game progresses, creating a three-dimensional pyramid shape.
