Abstract An amusement and educational game having a master game board divided into a number of outlined areas with a movable chance indicator means operable for indicating one of the outlined areas in response to a playing operation and including a predetermined character representation divided into a number of parts. Certain of the outlined areas on the master game board provide a support for a number of the separated parts of the predetermined character representation and certain other of the outlined areas include additional instructions which are to be performed by a player. The game includes a number of individual player game boards having an outline of the predetermined character representation. The master game board and the player game boards are provided with magnetic attraction means for maintaining the separated parts of the predetermined character representation in predetermined positions thereon. A game is played by each of the players receiving an individual player game board, with each player sequentially effecting movement of the chance indicator means and selecting a part from an indicated area in response to the motion of the chance indicator means ceasing and placing the selected part on the outline of the character representation on the player game board. Each of the players sequentially repeats movement of the chance indicator means and selects a part until one of the players assembles a complete character representation on his individual player game board.
An amusement and educational game adapted to be played by assembling a number of separated parts to constitute an entire unitary representation of a clown, the game including: a. a game board including means outlining a number of areas, certain of which are detailed to support at least one of said separated parts and a number of which areas are detailed to support all of said parts of a number of representations of said clown; b. a movable chance indicator means adapted to be set in motion by a player and including means for indicating an individual one of said outlined areas in response to cessation of such motion, said game being played by supporting said separated parts in certain of said outlined areas, and by a player effecting movement of said indicator means whereby one of said areas is indicated by said chance indicator means, with the player selecting a part from the indicated area, and such procedure being followed by each player in sequence and repeated until one player assembles a complete representation of said clown; c. each player being provided with a support means having an outline of said unitary clown representation, said separated parts being adapted to be placed within and, when complete, to completely fill said outline; d. said game board, said support means and each of said separated parts being impregnated with magnetic particles, whereby said parts will be held in position on said board or support means; e. said indicator means being constructed of a material which will not be attracted by the magnetic particles; f. at least one of said outlined areas not being detailed to support parts but containing a designation indicating that a player is entitled to select a part from any area which supports a part; and g. said game board containing at least one outline area indicating that a player is entitled to a free turn at setting said indicator in motion.
