Abstract:

A game playing apparatus for use with a signaling device includes sheet material defining a confined playing area and an array of locations delineated on the playing area. The playing area is sized to permit the players to move around the playing area when a signal to start movement is given by the signaling device, and the array of locations is sized and spaced to permit a player to occupy each location of the array of locations when a signal to stop movement is given by the signaling device. The game is played like the well-known game of musical chairs, with the locations serving as the "chairs". Discs are provided to cover locations after successive rounds so that the number of available locations is less than the number of players competing in each round.
