Abstract: |
Game board devices to be used as bingo cards are provided with changeable numbering sequences capable of being more readily perceived and remembered by sight handicapped persons. Through switches on the game board card, chance selected numbers may be registered by each player and through parallel circuits produce an audible sound when a winning game is achieved upon closure of those switches corresponding to predetermined patterns on the game board.
