Patent ID: 6976676

Claim:
A game apparatus comprising: a game element; a housing having a game element input and output; combination setting means for changing the combination in the game, said combination setting means having a plurality of concentric code wheels, each said concentric code wheel having a plurality of openings therein sized for said game element to pass therethrough, and a plurality of concentric indicia wheels, each said concentric indicia wheel being removably attachable to one said code wheel in a plurality of positions aligning said plurality of said code wheel openings between adjacent concentric code wheels to form a plurality of selectable combination paths through said plurality of code wheels and said attached concentric code and indicia wheels being separately rotatably mounted in said housing, and a plurality of said code wheel openings having a diverter member therein for diverting a game element passing therethrough from said path between code wheel openings when a diverter member is positioned in anyone of said concentric code wheel openings of a selected combination path whereby the attaching of each concentric code wheel with each concentric indicia wheel forms a combination pathway for said game element to pass through so that rotation of each of said attached indicia and code wheel is used to align the opening in said code wheels for guessing the code having the correct path for said game element to pass through.
