A gameboard includes a platen having intersecting channels that define a grid of tracks. Playing pieces are movable along the tracks and are retained by a bae on the playing piece that co-operates with the re-entrant walls of the channels. The flanges of the channels extend into the interstices of the tracks to retain the playing pieces while allowing their movement through the interstices.

A steering apparatus for a game machine according to the invention has a mechanism in which a steering wheel is rotated in accordance with the steering operation of the player and is automatically returned to the center. An end cam which always receives the elastic force of a compression coil spring sets the steering wheel to the neutral position, namely, the center by way of a guide roller. For instance, when the player operates the steering wheel to the right rotational direction, the guide roller rotates to the right together with the steering shaft. Thus, the end cam moves along the axial direction of the steering shaft in accordance with a rotational angle of the steering wheel. Then, when the steering wheel is released, the end cam receives the elastic force of the compression coil spring and allows the steering wheel to be returned to the center by way of the guide roller without performing the reversing operation of the steering wheel.In the apparatus of the invention, a detector of the rotational angle and rotational direction of the steering shaft is provided and an automobile displayed on the display is operated.

A board game apparatus comprises a pair of flat plain plates in spaced parallel configuration between which are mounted a number of counters in rows and columns defining a surface pattern. Flexible laminate strips adjacent the edges of the pattern define the extreme positions of the counters and maintain them in position between the plates. The strips are divided into separate portions which can be depressed manually for the insertion of an additional counter into a row or column and the ejection of the last counter in the opposite end of the row or column. The plates are connected flexibly by leaf springs to maintain pressure on the counters while allowing some flexibility for the ejection and insertion movements.

The tabular puzzle, shown in FIG. 5, is a puzzle comprising nine square tablets arranged in a three-by-three array and inclosed in a mechanism in such a way that any group of four tablets meeting at a common corner point may be rotated about said point by any multiple of 90.degree.. The exposed face of each of the tablets is marked with an index which uniquely establishes said tablet's identity and orientation. These indices may be scrambled by a series of said rotations. The object of the puzzle is to return the tablets, and hence the indices, to their original positions and orientations in the said three-by-three array by means of a series of said rotations.

Disclosed is amusement apparatus for an offensive player aiming a physical projectile toward a selected target attached to a base member and for a defensive player actively controllably defending one or more targets with a mechanical shield movably associated with the base member. The amusement apparatus concept herein is adaptable for an exceedingly challenging and remarkably realistic gridiron football type game wherein the aimable physical projectile is aerial, analagous to the gridiron quaterback and football-receiver situation, with the controllably movable shield being analagous to a football-defenseman. For the gridiron football game type embodiment, the aerial projectile is desireably a dart, and preferably wherein the combination dart leadward-end and the target is of the removably secureable hooks-and-eyes or "Velcro" type.

Game apparatus comprising a game board which is provided with squares numbered from 2 to 12, corresponding to the available numbers that can be rolled with a pair of dice; a pair of dice; a can-shaped member; spring means to project the latter; and 10 playing pieces. Basically, the game is played by the various participants rolling the dice and moving a number of positions on the board corresponding to the number rolled on the dice. The ''''protector of the can'''' who subsequently rolls the dice captures the playing pieces of those players, if any, who rolled the same number as he did. Any player who rolls 12 releases any captured players, who again become participants. This comprises ''''kicking the can'''' which is physically performed by the player who rolled 12 placing the can-shaped member upon the spring means, depressing same, and projecting the can into the air. The game ends upon capture of all playing pieces by the ''''protector of the can.
