Abstract

A goal-scoring game is played on a convex playing field having an apex, a periphery lower than the apex, and a spaced apart plurality of goals adjacent the periphery for receipt of game pieces. A plurality of movable game pieces are provided for movement about the field and into the goals. Player-operated impacting flippers are disposed adjacent to and associated with each of the goals, for impacting one of the game pieces to drive the impacted game piece away from the associated goal. A disperser is disposed over the field for storing a plurality of the game pieces and dropping them one at a time in rapid succession precisely onto the apex of the field.
