Abstract: An electronic game is disclosed having an interactive play section of relatively large area which can quickly and easily be reconfigured to occupy a much smaller space. The interactive section does not require a rigid frame and is either flexible or includes flexible portions which enable it to be reconfigured, e.g., by folding, overlaying or rolling. The electronic game also includes an electronics section which may be rigid or include rigid parts but which is of a size such that the overall size of the game when the interactive section is reconfigured is effectively determined by the reconfigured interactive section. The particular game may be any suitable game which requires interactivity between the game and the player, for example, an electronic game which tests a player's reaction time and coordination by providing prompts to the player and scoring the responses.

Abstract: The invention provides a toy light projector or light gun and player-worn and self-propelled toy targets which detect light emitted by a toy light gun, and a toy shooting game which includes at least one toy light gun, and at least one toy target. The game is played by a player attempting to "hit" a target which provides audio/visual effects upon detecting light projected by the gun. A main target contains a light detector and all of the circuitry and audio/visual components needed to play a game, and an auxiliary target may contain a light detector and only some of the components needed to play a game and be coupled to a main target to share components therein. A self-propelled target includes circuitry which provides pseudorandom (or other pre-programmed or random) motion to the target. The light gun emits a sound while it is on and ready to be fired, which can serve as a warning to an opposing player.
