Abstract
A game board for a guessing game includes a number of separate game board elements each for one of the players of the game. Each game board element includes four groups of recesses which, within each group, are arranged in rows indicated by numerals, and in columns indicated by alphabet letters. Each of the groups is associated with one of the players and is identified as such by a symbol of the respective player. A shield is mounted on the respective game board element and conceals the same from view by the other players. The shield has a set of predetermined patterns thereon from which each player selects one and positions one or more indicators into the respective recesses of one of the groups in accordance therewith. The players, in turn, call for the intersections of the rows and columns of the other players to determine whether an indicator is present or absent from the particular intersection. The presence or absence of the indicator from the respective intersection has to be revealed by the questioned player. Each player indicates the presence and absence of the indicators from the intersections of the other players in the proper groups of recesses by indicators which are of a different color for indicating the presence than for indicating the absence of the indicators of the others players. When the presence of a sufficient number of indicators has been revealed, the players may guess the pattern selected by the other players.
