A game that uses a gameboard which has a flat, smooth playing surface over which flat discs are slidable. A bumper rail borders the playing surface and causes discs to carom or ricochet back onto the playing surface. A plurality of pockets are disposed in the playing surface adjacent the bumper rail. The pockets are recessed into the playing surface, so that a disc will fall, by gravity, into the pockets. The pockets are made escape-proof by undercutting the bumper rail adjacent the pockets to extend the pockets under a part of the bumper rail. Thus, a part of the bumper rail overhangs each of the pockets and acts to prevent a disc from hitting the bumper rail and rebounding back over the pockets. The underside of the overhanging portions of the bumper rail, or the backsides thereof which the discs strike, may be sloped to deflect the discs downwardly into the pockets. The playing surface can be made to slightly overhang each of the pockets to help prevent the escapement of discs from the pockets. Unique traps are provided in the bumper rails between the pockets of at least two opposing sides of the playing surface.
