ABSTRACT:
A card game which comprises a set of cards of the same size and geometrical configuration, each having a square playing surface. Each of the four sides of each card has a selected visible indicia. The criteria determining how the indicia are to be arranged on the sides of the cards are mathematically selected so as to permit the use of the game as a mathematical puzzle that may be played by one player, played competitively by two players, or for other purposes of entertainment or intellectual stimulation. In many of the games the cards or other playing pieces are arranged in a mutually abutting side-by-side relationship whereby the indicia on each of the sides may match and align with the indicia on respective abutting sides of other cards of the set, and with the top surfaces of the abutting cards forming a square.
