Action game apparatus

摘要

An action game apparatus for testing manual skill and dexterity comprises a housing having a thin transparent sheet forming a playing surface and a magnet is manually movable over one face of the playing surface to attract and move a magnetic playing piece on the opposite face of the playing surface towards a goal. The playing surface is provided with walls defining a tortuous path leading to the goal and as the playing piece is moved along the tortuous path, it is subjected to bombardment from projectiles which are randomly propelled in the general vicinity of the playing piece. If a projectile strikes the playing piece with enough force, the magnetic attraction between the manually movable magnet and the attracted playing piece is broken and the player must start again and reestablish magnetic contact before movement toward the goal can again proceed. The game requires skill and manual dexterity in moving the playing piece as fast as possible around the tortuous path to the goal while trying to avoid the projectiles randomly fired.
