Abstract (en)

A game toy is disclosed which comprises a bar code reading device which reads bar codes from a card CD on which data relating to the game has been recorded in the bar codes; a data arrangement device which adds arbitrary data to data which is read by the bar code reading device to arrange it into a specific amount of data, when the data is below a predetermined amount; and a winner determining device which determines the winner and loser based on the data which is read by the above mentioned bar code reading device, or on the data which is arranged into the above mentioned specific amount of data. The game toy brings an element of surprise and a high level of interest to the game even when the amount of data obtained from the card is small, because the data is arranged into a specific amount. <IMAGE>
