A cornhole platform is provided that offers improved distributed lighting across the platform playing surfaces for nighttime play, as well as enhanced aesthetics and graphic presentation. The platform playing surfaces are formed from acrylic or acrylic glass. A translucent finish is obtained on the playing surface by sanding the underside layer of the acrylic sheet, where the diffused finish is used to trap light provided by light sources that are arranged along the perimeter of a frame that holds the one or more acrylic sheets. The sanded finish acts to diffuse light from the light source to more evenly fill the playing surface with light. As a result, the spotlight effect common to conventional illuminated gameboards is precluded thereby making play under low ambient light conditions of twilight or outdoor darkness possible without creating night vision impairment associated with looking into a comparatively bright light relative to the ambient lighting.

A throw weight includes a handle and a bag rotatably associated with the handle. The bag is designed to hold a weight which can be interchanged with other weights. The bag and handle are particularly constructed and oriented relative to one another for the purpose of correctly stabilizing the weight and to facilitate ease of throwing. The bag may include an opening at an end of the bag opposite the handle.

A disc tossing table game is provided. The table game includes baskets configured to receive a projectile, a tiered basket stand configured to receive the baskets thereon, and a disc configured to be thrown at the baskets. The baskets include an upright support pole disposed in a catch member, a top member for suspending deflecting tethers thereon, and a support member for stabilizing the support pole in the catch member. The support pole includes a first end affixed to the top member and a second end affixed to a base of the catch member. The tethers include a first end affixed to the top member and a second end affixed to a ring member suspended around the support pole. The support member engages a wall of the catch member via a friction fit. The catch member includes an interior volume configured to receive the projectile.

Four swords and at least one ring. Each sword has integrally formed handle, blade, and intermediate sections, and top and bottom surfaces with interior and exterior edges. Each generally oval handle section has grasping and shielding regions. Each thin, elongated and curved blade section has upper and lower ends with a convex interior edge and a concave exterior edge and slots extending between the top and bottom surfaces along its length. Each intermediate section has at least one projection extending from one of the edges. Each ring has an outer edge in a circular configuration, an inner edge with circumferential arcs which receives the exterior edges of blade sections of two crossed swords. The blade sections when aimed and rapidly uncrossed project the ring toward the upper ends of the blade sections and beyond for receipt by the sword of another player for subsequent projecting.

A launchable or throwable flying device that comprises a tapering tube or hollow truncated cone shape with a front aperture that is larger in diameter than the rear aperture. Various aerodynamic and design features are designed to optimize the device's performance in flight, such as (but not limited to) a tail section that induces the device to tack into the wind when thrown.

A beanbag target game has a game board having at least two opposing bars defining an aperture between them and at least one beanbag. The beanbag is sized to be effectively no wider than the width of the slots on the target board so that when the beanbag contacts the wings of two opposing bars, both wings flex inward while exerting a capturing force on the beanbag in between the two bars.
