The description.
Playing cards with numbers.The small version of the present mathematical game contains two decks
of numerical playing cards, and in each deck is present 34 cards with
numbers from 0 up to 33. Numbers are put on playing cards in the direct
and turned positions that allows two players at an arrangement opposite
each other on the different sides of a game board to read numbers
directly.
Two-color circles on face sheets and multi-colored rhombuses on backs designate a belonging of
playing cards to
different decks that allows two players to distinguish playing cards of
own decks.
Points on the back designate playing cards with numbers in which there
are ciphers 0, 1, 2, 3 and there are no ciphers 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. These
numbers are called "quaternary" or "fourfold" or "quadruple" and
accordingly points designate playing cards with quaternary numbers which
are necessary for realization of some game rules which are based on formation
of numerical combinations.
The game board of the small version has 8
vertical and 8 horizontal rows that forms 64 squares as a chess-board or
a checker-board. Verticals and
horizontals of the game board have numerical notations. Squares of the game
board have dark and light colors that
allows to see diagonals.
The constructive device of this mathematical game allows to carry out various
game rules and instructions. Namely playing
cards spread or shift or move on squares of the game board, and
playing interactions occur according to values of numbers and
according to presence of identical ciphers in numbers. Playing cards
with the big numbers can beat playing cards with smaller numbers, and
also playing cards can beat each other if have identical ciphers of
which numbers consist.
For example, the playing card with number 7 can beat the playing card
with number 17 as both have cipher 7, but can not beat the
playing card with number 9 as number 7 is less than number 9. The
playing card with number 9 can beat the playing card with number 7, but
can not beat the playing card with number 17 as number 17 is more than
number 9. Such hierarchy of playing cards is connected not only with values of
numbers but also with ciphers of which numbers consist.
Besides it is possible to play games in which interaction of playing cards occurs according to combinations
which are formed by sequences of numbers.
Mathematical actions in a context of the small version of the present
numerical game are inexpedient, as the big version for this
purpose is intended, where there are playing cards with numbers from 0 up to 99 and
there are the
game board with numerical notations of verticals and horizontals from 0
up to 9. But the small version is expedient for games where numbers move
on squares of the game board as playing figures in a chess.
That is the big version is expedient for games in which numbers on cards
are considered as results of mathematical actions with numerical
notations of verticals and horizontals of the board, and the small
version is expedient for games where numerical playing cards move on
squares of the board, and interactions occur according to values of numbers and according to presence of
identical ciphers in numbers, or according to formation of numerical
combinations. But nevertheless both versions can be used for realization
of different games and allow to apply various rules and instructions.
Brief rules and instructions of several games look on one
page of this website or look PDF files where there are rules and
instructions in Russian, but also there are images of playing cards and game boards
for printing. OCH2.PDF
Game rules and instructions are written in Russian but in this PDF file there are images for printing which can be tried to play.
I hope that this mathematical board game with numbers
will be interesting! |
