ABSTRACT:
A Bingo-type game, a method of playing a Bingo-type game and a game board for playing such a game are provided. The Bingo-type game enhances the enjoyment of participants at a ceremony or party which, by social convention, requires the participants to observe while a guest-of-honor opens presents. The game board is provided with a series of shapes aligned in rows which form a matrix. Each shape has the name of a gift item likely to be opened imprinted thereon. The participants are each provided with a game board having a unique arrangement of the names of a determined list of gift items that are likely to be opened and a means of marking the game board. The names from the list of items are equal to the number of shapes in the matrix. When the guest-of-honor opens a present which corresponds to a name imprinted on a participant's game board, the participant marks it off. When all shapes in either a horizontal row or in a vertical row or in a corner-to-corner diagonal row have been marked, the participant declares "Bingo" and receives a reward.
