Abstract

See full text

A game (10) includes a game board (16), a plurality of cards (14), a first figure (12A) and a second figure (12B). The game board (16) is formed from a plurality of separate panels (18) that are movable relative to one another. The first and second figures (12A, 12B) are movably positioned on the game board (16). The first figure (12A) includes two first figure components (220A, 220B) that move relative to one another to form a plurality of different poses. The first figure (12A) can initiate a confrontation with the second figure (12B) when the first figure (12A) is in one of the poses. In addition, the first figure (12A) can initiate the confrontation when the first figure (12A) has a predetermined position on the game board (16) relative to the second figure (12B). Alternatively, the pose that the first figure (12A) must be in to initiate the confrontation depends upon the relative positioning between the figures (12A, 12B) on the game board (16). In one embodiment, the outcome of the confrontation can be based at least partially on a panel parameter (454, 456A-C), a figure parameter (232, 234), a card parameter (344-348) and/or on a random parameter.
