A game apparatus includes a playing board having an enclosed space therein which is organized into compartments for playing a game such as solitaire with slidable playing pieces. Each playing piece includes a body portion and an off-center projection wherein the projection is used to both orient the playing piece and retain the playing piece within slots aligned in the compartments. The compartments include a mixing compartment and an array of parallel columnar compartments subdivided into unordered and ordered channels. The unordered channels are connected to the mixing compartment by a gate which delivers single rows of properly oriented playing pieces to the unordered channels for parallel stacking therewithin. The unordered channels are connected to the ordered channels by a passageway which includes a plurality of storage cells for temporarily storing the playing pieces as the playing pieces are shifted to the ordered channels. In a preferred method of using the apparatus, a solitaire-type game is played by shifting unordered playing pieces from the unordered channels to the ordered channels to provide an array of playing pieces in the ordered channels in which playing pieces of the same type or color scheme are sequentially organized.
