Abstract

A multi-game toy has a plurality of pinball-type games on a turnable disc which is mounted for turning movement on a housing. Each game has a set of balls, a playing field with designated scoring areas, and a movable firing pin on which the balls are respectively loaded. One of the games is selected and arrested in position at a predetermined game-playing location on the housing. A spring-actuated actuator is operative for propelling the firing pin to thereby launch the respectively loaded ball towards one of the scoring areas in order to play the selected game. A player looks through a magnifying lens which overlies the predetermined game-playing location in order to enlarge the view of the playing field of the selected game.
