ABSTRACT:
There is provided a new and useful game apparatus for combining chance play with mathematical operation. The apparatus comprises a game board having a playing surface laid out with a sequence of numbered playing spaces, a set of markers for use in marking positions within the sequence of playing spaces, and at least two dice each marked on the sides thereof with a series of numbers. The numbers in the group of series on the dice form a number set. Each series in the number set is chosen such that the first number in the first series is zero or one. If the first number in the first series is zero, then one number in each other series may be zero and otherwise no two numbers are the same within the set and each number in each series subsequent to the first series is larger than any number in any preceding series. If the first number in the first series is one, then one number in each other series may be zero, one number of the second series may be the same as the highest number of the first series, and otherwise no two numbers are the same within the set and each number in each series subsequent to the first series is larger than any number in any preceding series.
