A game comprises a base member divided into a plurality of horizontally-extending vertically-aligned zones representing levels of a building structure open at their opposite ends, a plurality of playing pieces in the form of colored blocks adapted to be received in the levels, and a pair of conveyors or elevators at the opposite ends of the zones, each adapted to receive several of the colored blocks for shifting them from one level to another. The total number of colored blocks is less than the number adapted to be accommodated by all the levels, so that there are always some empty spaces in the levels for receiving colored blocks as they are shifted by the use of the conveyors, the object being to fill each level only with the blocks of a single color. Another embodiment is described wherein the playing pieces, instead of being colored blocks, are blocks bearing alphabetical characters, in which case the object is to shift the playing pieces among the levels so as to form words.
