Abstract
The invention is based on a playing figure for a ball game playable on a table, particularly for a table football game, in which said playing figure (1) has a disk-like base (3) rotationally symmetrical about a base axis and having a base diameter (D1) and a base height (H1), as well as a figure (2), the base (3) being bounded on its bottom by a planar base lower surface (10) having a diameter (D2) and on its top by a base upper surface (7) bordered by a base upper edge (8) and on which the figure (2), extending in the direction of the base axis is fitted. In the case of such a playing figure (1) an improved playability is brought about in that the diameter (D2) of the base lower surface (10) is more than 55% and up to substantially 100% of the base diameter (D1).
