In Wall St. Journal Hammacher Schlemmer had ad for TRIPTIC (Invento)
It is a 3D TICK-TACK-TOE played on a 3x3x3 board with 28 pcs.

Went to I-S to meet Arnold Shapiro of X. He is quite frustrated about working on the games without a staff or a budget. However, Don Hall, the head of the company has just recently been told of the project and is favorable. Their research dept. will make a complete survey of the game market. They have made a success of a gift book line & a gift craft kit line which should help acceptance of the games at the top.
Their first line will consist of :-
CONSPIRACY SHAPE AND SHATTER COLOR CONFUSION DEDUCTION TRIPPLE CROSS STACK STICKS COLOR GUARD BROKER RE LETTER CAPTURE THE CARGO CINEMA
