Abstract

An amusement game device includes a labyrinth structure and a pair of elongated resiliently flexible substantially coextensive strips which are interconnected at one end thereof. The device is operable to effect the selective independent longitudinal advancement and retraction of each of the strips to cause the interconnected ends thereof to be selectively turned and thereby guided through the labyrinth structure. Game play is effected by advancing the strips through the labyrinth structure to engage and manipulate or retrieve game elements positioned therein through the use of a magnet or the like attached to the interconnected strip ends.
