My invention relates to improvements in game apparatus, and the same has for its object to provide an apparatus by means of which crossword or analogous puzzles may be worked or I played by two persons playing in competition.
Further, said invention has for its object to provide an apparatus of the character specified in which cross-word blank cards may be removably inserted at will. 3
Further, said invention has for its object to provide an apparatus having block-pockets or retaining devices thereon corresponding in size and. number with the squares of the card bearing the cross-word puzzle to be solved.
Further, said invention has for its object to provide an apparatus inwhich the block pockets or retaining devices are adapted to receive separate blocks which are so constructed that the same may be positioned in said retaining pockets v or devices without concealing the number or indicating means of the square of the puzzle card associated with said pocket or retaining device.
Further, said invention has for its object to provide an apparatus of the character specified in which the blocks to be used bear different colors or identifying means on two of their major faces, and each of said faces bears the same letter, numeral or indicating character.
1 Other objects will in part be obvious and in'part be pointed out hereinafter.
' To the attainment of the aforesaid objects and ends my invention consists in the novel features of construction, and in the combination, connection and arrangement of parts hereinafter more fully described and then pointed out in the claims.
In the accompanying drawings- Figure 1 is a face view showing one form of game apparatus constructed according to, and embodying my said invention;
Fig. 2 is an enlarged fragmental face view showing the lower portions of the apparatus;
Fig. 3 is a sectional view on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2; i
Fig. 4 is a transverse section on the line 4-4 of Fig. 1;
Figs. 5 and 6 are face views of a playing block showing, respectively, the arrangement of the letters on the obverse and reverse sides thereof,
and
Fig. 7 is a face view of a card bearing a crossword puzzle problem.
In said drawings an designates a suitable flat support, such as a board of wood, cardboard or other suitable material, and preferably provided on one side with a shallow rectangular recess H.
The said recess II has its upper end extending to the upper edge of the support to provide an entrance opening I2 to receive a puzzle card 13, hereinafter more fully described.
Upon the upper surface of the support II] and enclosing the recess H is a retaining frame l4 which is secured in position on said support. The said frame includes twovertical or side members l of substantially Z-shape in cross section, and angular transverse top and bottom members ll, I8, respectively, which are secured at their opposite ends to the upper and lower ends of the side members [5.
Within the retaining frame I4 is secured a reticular member I 9 having rectangular openings or pockets therein. In the present embodiment the frame is shown as having nine vertical rows each of nine pockets 20, and the vertical side members [5 and transverse top and bottom members ll, l8 are severally provided with numerals running from 11 to 9 and corresponding vertically and horizontally with the rows of pockets 2|] in the reticular member l9.
The card l3 bearing the cross-word puzzle to be solved is provided with nine vertical rows of columns 2| each having nine squares or blanks 22 of which certain thereof as 23 are colored to distinguish from the remaining ones, and to form a design.
Each of the squares 22 is provided at one corner with a number or suitable indicating device which corresponds with the number of the word on a separate chart, and for which word the numbered series of squares 22 constitute the definition or answer.
The game is played in the'following manner.
It will, of course, be understood that the same is to be played by two individuals or players, and that each one will select one color or side of the playing block for his side.
The players being first provided with a schedule or list of words corresponding to the numbered squares of the puzzle card 13 may proceed in different ways, for example, each player may in turn place one block in a pocket, or each player may insert as many blocks as possible without regard to the number of turns and the one having the greatest number of correct answers, or the one having the greater number of correct words, or the greater numberof blocks: of his color in the reticular member, when'the pockets are all filled, will be the winner.
