Attorney, Agent or FirmInternational ClassA63F 3/00 (20060101)AbstractA strategy game is provided in which two or more people play on a game board by moving pieces along a square spiral path. Movement along the path is determined by dice and by cards. Cards are obtained when a piece lands on appropirate spaces. The object of the game is to score a predetermined number of points. Scoring occurs when a piece captures an opponent's piece by landing on a space occupied by that piece. The score is calculated by adding to the values of the two pieces, values assigned to the space where the capture occurred. | |
