A lighting lamp that lights up and projects by color is electrically connected to the CPU through an output interface, and when two lighting lamps of the same color are pre-lighted and a lighting lamp of another color is sandwiched, It is characterized in that the lighting lamps of the other colors are controlled so as to change to the colors of the sandwiched lighting lamps.

[0006]

The above-mentioned on-board game tool and on-board game machine can be variously played by defining the rules, and an example thereof will be described here. According to the on-board game tool having the first configuration, in progressing the game, the pieces are distributed to 2 to 4 people, and then the four-color dice are rolled and the person who starts first and the color are It can be decided, and as a method for that, the color of the surface of the top with the four-color dice rolled is the standard. In this way, when the person who starts the start and the color of each team are decided, each player takes a position in front of the frame surface of the corresponding color on the game board. Then, the respective colored pieces are placed in the four frame surfaces in the center of the game board. For example, suppose you roll the four-color dice in clockwise order. When you roll the four-color dice and your own color comes out, you can replace the other color piece of any of the three other teams with your own color, but be sure to use the other team's piece Color frames must be able to be inserted vertically, horizontally, or diagonally. If you can't pinch it, place it next to the other person's piece. When a color other than your own color appears, the person in the base of that color sandwiches the piece of the color of that base with the other's own piece in the vertical, horizontal, or diagonal direction. It must be placed in, and if it cannot be sandwiched, it is placed next to the other piece. In this way, a frame of another color sandwiched between two frames of the same color can be changed to the color of the sandwiched frame. The game is continued until the entire surface of the board is filled, and the person with the most colors of the placed pieces decides the win.

According to the on-board game machine having the second configuration,
When proceeding with the game, when the start / stop button is pushed, an electric signal reaches the inside of the CPU via the input interface and the start / stop lamp is lit at random, and when the start / stop button is pushed again, the electric signal is interrupted in the CPU. Then, a start lamp at an unspecified one place is turned on, a person located on the side of the turned on start lamp starts the game first, and then, for example, the game is performed in the clockwise order.

When playing the game, if the start lamps of one's own team light up when each person presses the start / stop button in the above-mentioned order, the grid plane previously lighted in the color of another person. Can be lit in its own color, and if the start lamp of its own is not lit, it can be lit in its own color on the lattice plane that the other lit person likes. In this case as well, the same rules as those for the on-board game equipment described above are followed. In this way, when the vertical grid frame designating button and the horizontal grid frame designating button are operated to designate any designated grid frame, one of the four color lighting lamps provided on the lower surface of each grid surface via the CPU, That is, when a lighting lamp of the designated person's own color is lit and two lighting lamps of the same color are lit in advance and a lighting lamp of another color is sandwiched, the lighting lamp of the other color is The CPU is controlled so as to change the color of the sandwiched lighting lamps, and thus the game can be enjoyed in a variety of ways of playing, in which the person who arranges as many pieces of his / her own color as possible wins.
