Abstract

A game device includes first and second game pieces, and first and second boards. The first game piece and second game piece are different. The first board includes first and second squares on a top surface thereof. The first and second squares are aligned. The second board has first and second surfaces and includes third and fourth squares on the first surface. The second board is configurable on the first board. The first squares and the third squares are configured to overlap in a vertical direction when the second board is in a prescribed location on the first board. When the first game piece is configured at the first square and no game piece is configured at the third game square, and when the first square overlaps with the third square vertically, the first game piece is identifiable through the third squares.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A game device comprising:
 first game piece and second game piece being different from the first game piece;   a first board including first and second squares on a top surface thereof, the first and second squares being aligned; and   a second board having first and second surfaces and including third and fourth squares on the first surface, the second board being configurable on the first board, each one of the first to fourth squares having a same shape, the second surface being opposite to the first surface and facing the first board,   the second board being configured at a first place or a second place on the first board,   the first squares and the third squares being configured to overlap in a vertical direction when the second board is in a prescribed location on the first board,   when the first game piece is configured at the first square and no game piece is configured at the third game square, and when the first square overlaps with the third square vertically, the first game piece being identifiable through the third squares.   
     
     
         2 . The game device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the third square having a first fitting recess, and   the first game piece is configurable in or removable from the first fitting recess.   
     
     
         3 . The game device according to  claim 2 , wherein
 the third square includes a bottom plate having a viewing window.   
     
     
         4 . The game device according to  claim 2 , wherein
 the bottom place has a through hole being smaller than the first game piece.   
     
     
         5 . The game device according to  claim 4 , wherein
 the second board invertible such that the first surface faces the first board.   
     
     
         6 . The game device according to  claim 5 , wherein
 the second board includes a fifth square having a second fitting recess on the second surface,   the first game piece is configurable in and removable from the second fitting recess,   the fifth square has having the same shape as the third square, and   the fifth square shares the bottom plate with the third square.   
     
     
         7 . The game device according to  claim 6 , wherein
 the first to fifth squares are square shaped,   the first and second game pieces are disk shaped,   the first board includes a hemispherical recess at a corner of the first square,   the second board includes a spherical part being configured in the hemispherical recess when the second board is configured on the first board, and   the second board is rotating horizontally and invertible around the spherical part.   
     
     
         8 . The game device according to  claim 6 , wherein
 the first board includes a magnet being in the hemispherical recess, and   the spherical part includes a magnetic body that is attracted to the magnet.
