Abstract
A game is provided in which individual playing pieces are moved incrementally along an elongated rectangular game board, according to the random throw of a die. The game board in the form and position of an elongated movable strip and is mechanically self-retracted continuously into a fixed body in the form of an animal's head, the mouth portion of which continually opens and closes during the play of the game. The playing pieces are moved incrementally away from the animal's snapping mouth according to the random throw of the die, the object of the game being for a playing piece to reach the safe area at the extremity of the elongated strip prior to full retraction of the strip, along with the playing piece into the animal's opening and closing mouth.
