Abstract: A game lighting and scorekeeping assembly for use when playing toss games is provided. The assembly includes an upright support structure adapted to support a scorekeeping device (preferably illuminated), an illumination system for providing light onto one or more gameboards, a cup holding assembly, an audio speaker system, a bottle opener assembly, and other elements. Both the scorekeeping device and the illumination system each emit amplified light with the illumination system emitting focused light at higher lumens, and as such, the game lighting and scorekeeping assembly is designed to minimize the interference between the light emitted by the scorekeeping device and the light emitted by the illumination system. In this regard, the scorekeeping device is positioned at a higher elevation on the game lighting and scorekeeping assembly above the illumination system.

Abstract: A table top ball game that enables two or more people to play a variety of ball sports. Games are based on foosball/soccer table games and use similar controls, skills and operations to those already in existence. The stadium games enhance the game experience by adding features that are present in real games and by resembling the shape and imitating the images, sounds and atmosphere of a real stadium. Another aspect of the present invention provides a protective volume around the distal ends of the user operated control rods with a plurality of player figure mounted thereon. A further aspect of the present invention provides a plurality of means for eliminating dead spots on a playing surface while providing an improvement of the game.

Abstract: A table game includes a lower level (2) providing a surface on which a plurality of player pieces (21) can move, an upper level (1) providing a surface on which a game is played and including a plurality of slots, a plurality of player pieces extending from the lower level and through the slots in the upper level, a plurality of electronic movement devices coupled to the player pieces to provide movement to the player pieces, and control means (4) for controlling the electronic movement of the player pieces.

Abstract: An amusement device which uses a case containing balls that are shot from one side of the case to the other, and pegs are positioned at the bottom of the case to facilitate scoring. A second container is positioned at the top of the case so the game can be turned upside down in order to continue the game or to start a new game.

Abstract: A combination of an elevated platform and a game table having a support structure including a game table and an elevated platform. The elevated platform including at least one support arm releasably connectable to the support structure in a play position and further connectable to the support structure in a storage position. The elevated platform may be coupled to the game table for translation relative to the support structure between the play and storage positions. The elevated platform may also be hingedly coupled to the supporting structure.

Abstract: A bowling game table having a game lane surface with oppositely disposed ball return gutters, multiple ball engagement shoes are movably positioned transversely at one end thereof with a plurality of pins set up at the other end thereof. An independent playing cue selectively registerable through and aligned with said ball engagement shoes. Selective ball positioning on the game lane within said ball engagement shoes before launch towards the pins by engagement with said cue.

Abstract: The present invention provides a simulated baseball game apparatus. The game is played generally in accordance with the rules of actual baseball. The apparatus resembles a baseball field and is designed to be played by at least two players. An offensive player attempts to the hit the ball using a batting mechanism, while a defensive player pitches and fields the ball using pitching and fielding mechanisms, respectively.

Abstract: A table game includes a generally planar panel having a top surface including a playing field. First and second playing pieces are slidably positioned on the playing field. First and second control members are located below the panel with the first control member being magnetically coupled with only the first playing piece and with the second control member being magnetically coupled with only the second playing piece The first and the second control members are capable of moving the first and the second playing pieces respectively to substantially any location on the playing field without mutual interference between the first and the second control members.

Abstract: The present invention provides a miniature live-action surfing attraction and associated surf game specifically adapted for use with one or more surf toy action figures. The surf toy action figures are mountable to a surf board appropriately sized and weighted to provide relatively stable or semi-stable surf-riding action upon a sheet flow of water flowing up an inclined ride surface of the reduced scale attraction. Various surf action figures may be set free upon the ride surface, or they may be constrained or partially constrained by wires, strings, magnets or the like, as desired. Alternatively, or in addition, they may be controlled via a remote control, or radio control transmitter, as desired. Thus, a fun and entertaining game is created that provides realistic live-action surfing within a relatively small or confined area.

Abstract: A device for movably coupling a gaming piece to a substantially non-magnetic surface having opposite first and second sides is disclosed. The device comprises a base which is mounted to the gaming piece, the base comprising a housing, a first and second magnet and a first support element positioned between the first and second magnets. The first support element is dimensioned and configured to support the base on the first side of the surface. The device has a magnetic coupling positioned on the second side of the surface, said magnetic coupling comprising a spindle member having an axis of rotation and a first and second magnet, the spindle member being rotatably mounted in a carriage housing.

Abstract: A magnetic table game includes a table having a smooth top playing surface, a goal at each end of the table, a projectile defined by a plastic ring carrying a freely rotatable steel ball bearing, and a pair of plastic sticks containing a magnet in their blade ends for insertion beneath the table to move the projectile along the playing surface.

Abstract: A game table includes an elongate horizontal base wall, and two short side walls and two long side walls to confine a simulated soccer field space. At least two manipulating rods are mounted rotatably and transverse to the long side walls in a first axis. Each rod has two end portions protruding to be outboard to the long side walls so as to form two handle grips thereon, and at least one torso portion secured thereon so as to rotate therewith. A lower limb portion is disposed between each torso portion and the base wall, and includes upper and lower ends, and an intermediate section pivoted to the respective torso portion such that when the upper end is pulled, the lower end will swing about a second axis transverse to the first axis. A cord member has a connecting end secured to the upper end, and a pulled end led towards the handle grip such that a jerking of the pulled end towards the handle grip will actuate the swinging of the lower end.

Abstract: A game, of the table soccer type, comprises a playing surface, pieces imitating players and a ball simulating a football. It has, along the table, on each of two opposite sides, a series of control levers, each lever corresponding to the movement of a player. Each player is connected to a carriage comprising two drive motors, each of which drives a wheel, and an electronic receiving unit. Each control lever is attached to a transmitter unit in order to control selectively the power supply of one or other of the motors in one direction or the other.
