Magnetic Dominos Game

Abstract

A magnetic dominos game set with pieces that magnetically connect end to end, side to side and side to end, and methods for manufacturing and playing magnetic dominos.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A magnetic dominos game set comprising:
 a plurality of domino pieces each being formed by the mating of a female half and a male half such that each piece when fully assembled comprises two ends, two sides, a bottom, and a top;   each of said domino pieces further comprising a first and a second cavity disposed at each end of said domino pieces;   each of said first and second cavities comprising one magnet;   said first and second cavities being sufficiently larger than said magnets to allow said magnets to move inside when attracted to a magnet of a different domino piece in said set, or a ferrous metal to form end magnetic connectors disposed at the centers of said ends;   each of said domino pieces further comprising a third and a fourth cavity disposed on said sides;   each of said third and fourth cavities comprising one magnet inside and comprising elongated shapes with a length shorter than a total length of said pieces and forming a centrally disposed runway along said sides for the magnets in said third and fourth cavities to move along said sides;   said centrally disposed runway comprising a final length of about one half a total length of said pieces;   said third and fourth cavities being sufficiently larger than said magnets to allow said magnets to move inside when attracted to a magnet of a different domino piece in said set, or a ferrous metal, and to form adjustable side magnetic connectors disposed along said sides and forming adjustable magnetic connections anywhere along the length of said centrally disposed runway; and   said domino pieces being magnetically connectable to each other end to end, side to side, side to end, and to ferrous metallic surfaces.   
     
     
         2 . The magnetic dominos game set of  claim 1  wherein said female half comprises a plurality of holes and said male half comprises a plurality of corresponding pegs that mate to hold the each piece together. 
     
     
         3 . The magnetic dominos game set of  claim 1  wherein said pieces are made of material selected from the group consisting of plastic, wood, bone, and aluminum alloy. 
     
     
         4 . The magnetic dominos game set of  claim 1  wherein said magnets are neodymium magnet. 
     
     
         5 . The magnetic dominos game set of  claim 1  wherein said magnets are spherical.
