ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a game apparatus comprising a game board having a playing surface containing playing piece movement areas. At least some of the playing piece movement areas are in areas defined by channels into which are fit respective game pieces, each containing an upwardly directed face having an indicium thereon. The indicium for each of the game pieces can be letters of the alphabet, arithmetic numerals or other information, which can be formed into a plurality of indicia patterns, such as words, mathematical problems or an information sequence which can be assigned a player for him to traverse by movement of his playing piece among the playing piece movement areas. The playing piece movement areas on each game board section are grouped together by additional indicium provided on the game board sections to define groups of playing piece movement areas, a playing piece being required to traverse each of the movement areas in a group before proceeding to another group, thus establishing tortuous paths for playing pieces as they move on the playing surface through assigned indicia patterns. The game board can be formed as a plurality of game board sections which are removably engageable either with each other or with an optional crosspiece to permit reorientation of a portion of the game board before or during the play of a game.
