Toss Across is a game first introduced in 1969 by the now defunct Ideal Toy Company.〔Toss Across, (Everything2 ), Retrieved on March 31, 2008〕 The game was designed by Marvin Glass and Associates and created by Hank Kramer, Larry Reiner and Walter Moe, and is now distributed by Mattel.〔( Toy Industry Association ), Toy Industry Hall of Fame, Retrieved on March 31, 2008〕〔Mattel Toys, (Mattel - Our Toys ), Retrieved on March 31, 2008〕 It is a game in which participants play tic-tac-toe by lobbing small beanbags at targets in an attempt to change the targets to their desired letter. As in traditional tic-tac-toe, the first player to get three of their letters in a row wins the game. There are other similar games to Toss Across known under different names, such as Tic Tac Throw. The targets are three-sided blocks situated on a frame such that the impact of the beanbags can turn the block, changing the letter. Each block has a blank side, an X, and an O. Modern boards are entirely plastic, less than a meter square. Six beanbags are included with the game. ==Rules== The official rules as included with the game call for the X player to go first. Each player starts with three beanbags. Players stand approximately six feet from the board to toss their beanbags, alternating turns. The beanbags are only retrieved after all six are thrown. Whenever three matching symbols in a row are turned over by either player, the game ends immediately. Multiple players may participate by dividing into two teams. (Turn order: 1. Player 1 from Team A, 2. Player 1 from Team B, 3. Player 2 from Team A, 4. Player 2 from Team B.) Variations: # More skilled players can stand farther back to make aiming their tosses more challenging. # Rather than arbitrarily assigning the first player X, letters can be assigned as soon as a letter is turned on the board, to the player that turned the letter. For example, if the first player misses his first shot, but the second player turns over an X, the second player is assigned X (and by extension, the first player subsequently plays O) for the remainder of the game. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Toss Across」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
