Specification

FIELD OF INVENTION
[001] The present invention relates to a merriment apparatus. More particularly, the present invention relates to a standalone assemblage merriment apparatus.
BACKGROUND
[002] Merriment apparatuses have been prevalent in the market since decades. Such apparatuses involve mental, strategical, or logical abilities, depending on their operational method.
[003] These apparatuses may be for children as well as for adults, based on the level of intellectual ability to be applied thereon. These can be classified under two broad categories, educational and entertainment apparatuses.
[004] There are many known types of educational merriment apparatuses, one of which is standalone educational merriment apparatuses, comprising a printed matter placed on top of a hardware. The main disadvantage of this type of educational apparatuses, however, is that they are not suitable and/or convenient for beginners, young children and adolescents. Another disadvantage of this type of educational apparatuses is that they are expensive.
OBJECTIVE OF THE INVENTION
[005] Objects of the present invention involve overcoming the above-mentioned problem associated with the existing type of educational merriment apparatuses.
[006] Primary object of the present invention is to provide an educational merriment apparatus that is standalone in nature.
[007] Another object of the present invention is to provide an educational merriment apparatus that is easily operated by beginners, young children and adolescents.
[008] Yet another object of the present invention is to provide an educational merriment apparatus that is cost effective.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[009] An assemblage merriment apparatus as per the present invention comprises a spinner device, a hardboard, plurality of tokens, plurality of items, plurality of cards, and plurality of movable devices. The plurality of tokens is used to transact the plurality of items and inculcate users about assemblage. The assemblage merriment apparatus is operated by dispersing equal number of items and tokens to a plurality of users, allotting a card from the plurality of cards to each user as per a selected level, rolling and tumbling spinner device to move their movable devices on hardboard, transacting the plurality of items using the plurality of tokens, and assembling the plurality of items to match the same with the number of items embossed on the allotted card.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS
[0010] The following description describes various features and functions of the disclosed apparatus and system. The illustrative aspects described herein are not meant to be limiting. It may be readily understood that certain aspects of the disclosed apparatus and system can be arranged and combined in a wide variety of different configurations, all of which are contemplated herein.
[0011] These and other features, including the advantages of the present invention may be incorporated into certain embodiments of the invention and will become more fully apparent from the following description, or may be learned by the practice of the invention as set forth hereinafter.
[0012] Accordingly, those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that various changes and modifications of the embodiments described herein can be made without departing from the scope of the invention. In addition, descriptions of well-known functions and constructions are omitted for clarity and conciseness.

[0013] It is to be understood that the singular forms "a", "an", and "the" include plural reference, unless the context clearly dictates otherwise.
[0014] It should be emphasized that the term "comprises/comprising" when used in this specification is taken to specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps or components, but does not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, components or groups thereof.
[0015] The present invention discloses a merriment apparatus for teaching assemblage or collection, along with monetary transactions.
[0016] The apparatus as per the present invention comprises, but is not limited to, a spinner device, a hardboard, plurality of tokens, plurality of items, plurality of cards and plurality of movable devices.
[0017] A plurality of users operate the merriment apparatus of present invention. Each user is initially provided with an equal number of tokens and items from the plurality of tokens and plurality of items, wherein each item is allotted a pre-determined token value, common for all the users.
[0018] Thereafter, the plurality of users mutually select a level, pursuant to which each user is dispersed with one card each from the plurality of cards corresponding the selected level. The cards have unique and exclusive number of items mentioned thereon for the users to assemble accordingly.
[0019] The plurality of users then take turns to roll and tumble the spinner device. Pursuant to this, the user moves the movable device allotted to them on the hardboard, per the rolled spinner device.
[0020] Various cells are embossed on the hardboard thereon having instructions for tasks to be completed when the movable devices land on particular cells.
[0021] The users transact for the plurality of items using the plurality of tokens as per the instructions on the particular cells on hardboard, and as per the pre-determined token values allotted to each item.

[0022] The plurality of users transact and assemble the plurality of items with the aim of matching the number of items illustrated on the card drawn by the user thereon.
[0023] As per a specific embodiment of the present invention, the number of users is limited to a minimum of two and a maximum of four. The number of users is mentioned not to limit the scope of invention, but only to further enhance the understanding of the invention to a person skilled in the art.
[0024] As per an alternate embodiment, the present invention can also be optionally realized through an electronically connected means.
[0025] The present invention also discloses a method for operation of such standalone assemblage merriment apparatus.
[0026] While the present invention has been described with reference to one or more preferred aspects, which aspects have been set forth in considerable detail for the purposes of making a complete disclosure of the invention, such aspects are merely exemplary and are not intended to be limiting or represent an exhaustive enumeration of all aspects of the invention. The scope of the invention, therefore, shall be defined solely by the following claims. Further, it will be apparent to those of skill in the art that numerous changes may be made in such details without departing from the principles of the invention.
