Had an idea for another possible game for Enjay; tentative name <u>POINT</u>: Have 64 cardboard squares, 16 each of 4 colors. In each set 4 of the pcs. have arrows pointing in 4 directions, 4 in 3 directions, 4 in 2 directions (or possibly eliminate the 4 directions and have 4 each of the two possible arrangement of 2 arrows), and 4 in 1 direction. These are placed at random on a checkerboard. <br>

Another idea for a an Enjay game. Have 64 cardboard pcs. with 4 squares, one being colored. There are 4 different colors, 16 of each. Two play. The pcs. are turned face down and players take one at a time and play them. The second must be adjoined to an edge of the first; then the 3rd and 4th placed so that a 2x2 square is formed. Then a piece is placed next to one of the original 4. Then in turn pcs. are placed at either end of the ring until 12 pcs. have been placed in a completed ring around the original 4. Then in a similar way another ring of 20 is formed, and finally a ring of 28, ending up with an 8x8 square. One player goes first in the inside square and the outer ring; the other in the 2 intermediate rings. <br>

Object is for one player to form as direct a path as possible between two opposite sides of the board while the other tries to get a direct path between the other 2. Colored spaces are blocks. <br>

As soon as each square is completed each player finds his shortest path and counts the number of spaces in it. The player with the shorter, if there is one, scores the difference in the number of spaces. <br>
