Abstract:
1. A game to be played for entertainment and fun, said game comprising: a track having a pair of spaced apart rails extending substantially parallel to each other thereby providing an open space all along and between the rails, each rail having a plurality of substantially equally spaced-apart openings extending transversely to the rail, an opening in one rail being opposite a corresponding opening in the other rail; a plurality of spaced-apart cross ties affixed to the rails beneath the rails and supporting the rails in a fixed position, the ties being spaced apart substantially the same distance as the openings in the rails so that a tie is positioned beneath each pair of openings in the rails; a pivot member received in each opening in the rails; and a plurality of tiles pivotally mounted in the open space between the rails on the pivot members with the tiles normally extending upwardly; each tile having a main body with a top, a bottom, a front side and a back side, the main body being thicker at the top between the front side and the back side, each tile having a pivot hole near its bottom and offset toward the back side so as to pivotally mount the tile on a pivot member, the tile having a stop member offset from the front side and extending downwardly from the bottom of the time to extend between the cross ties in a position to engage a cross tie so as to maintain the tile in its upwardly extending position while allowing the tile to pivot and swing downwardly toward its back side and in one direction only; the distance between adjacent pivot members being less than the distance from a pivot member to the top of the tile mounted on the pivot member; whereby pivoting of one tile in the one direction will cause the tile to engage the adjacent tile and cause it to pivot.
