Abstract

A pattern location board game device is described in which each player attempts to locate a pattern of playing positions selected by an opponent. The device includes a game board having a plurality of playing positions bearing indicia representative of each one of a plurality of articles of clothing and each one of a plurality of colors. A plurality of identical playing positions are dispersed on the game board. Each player has a playing position selection box that displays the various articles of clothing represented on the game board while concealing a set of colored pegs received in apertures in the box associated with each represented article of clothing. The colored pegs are selectively positioned in the apertures associated with the articles of clothing to indicate the selected pattern of playing positions on the game board. A plurality of clear, transparent discs are used to mark certain playing positions on the game board which one player believes represent the selected positions of another player.
