Quick-set domino arrangements including two-person domino challenge game

Abstract

Domino boards exploit an array of dominoes rotatably mounted to the top surface of each of the boards so that the array may be quickly reset by a single manipulation of the board by a user. A plurality of board shapes may be linked into modules and each module may also be reset by a single manipulative action. A plurality of modules are combined to form a game configuration. A game of challenge is introduced by mounting dominoes at strategic locations on a specially designed board. An identifier such as color is associated with each of the dominoes on the board and a mathematical algorithm founded in 'game theory' is deployed to generate a location for each domino based on its identifier. According to one set of game rules, there are two players, each player controls a color and the players alternate turns in knocking down a domino under one's control. Because of the placement of dominoes, one or more dominoes may be toppled by a single move by a player. The first player forced to knock down all of the dominoes under his/her control loses the game. To combine entertainment with the strategy, a configuration of other board types is associated with the special board.
