A marble jump game includes a base, a tube, a marble track, and a plurality of targets. The tube is configured to be removably secured to a corresponding tube of a receiving tube of a marble run module having a receiving tube. The tube defines an axial direction, and is supported at least indirectly by and above the base. The marble track is affixed to the tube, and extends from a first end to a marble exit. The marble track is configured such that when the axial direction is vertically oriented, a marble placed on the marble track proximate the first end traverses the marble channel and exits through the marble exit. Each target of the plurality of spaced-apart targets is with a game value. Each target has a fixed position relative to the others of the plurality spaced-apart targets.

The present invention provides for a plurality of interconnectable modular members that may create a pathway system with multiple entrances into the upper portion of each member and at least one exit from the lower portion of each member, thereby providing for a variety of convergence and divergence possibilities. The pathway system is suitable for receiving and transporting marbles and other spherical objects from one member to another. The modular members may be interlinked via male/female connectors to create a variety of configurations.

A separated framing device for a soccer table includes a plurality of separable lower framing plates, a plurality of separable upper framing plates, a plurality of operating rod components, and a plurality of framing plate fasteners. The plurality of lower framing plates and the upper framing plates are fixed by the framing plate fastener. The lower framing plates and the upper framing plates are connected to table legs to form a soccer table. The operating rod components are provided between the lower framing plates and the upper framing plates, and are capable of doing rotation and movement. The separated peripheral frame structure of the soccer table of the present invention can quickly and conveniently install the operating rod component in the frame of the soccer table.

A display device according to one or more embodiments may include a lightguide plate comprising a transparent part, and an incident surface, the lightguide plate configured to display at least one pattern; and a light source facing the incident surface. The lightguide plate may include a plurality of prisms on a surface of the lightguide plate, the plurality of prisms being arranged along the at least one pattern to reflect light emitted from the light source and entering the lightguide plate through the incident surface out of the lightguide plate through an emission surface of the lightguide plate, and a transparent protective layer covering at least a part of the emission surface, the protective layer having a smaller refractive index than the lightguide plate.

A rotatable ball momentum transfer assembly for an amusement gam, such as a pinball machine includes an impact ball mounted to an inclined playfield and a shaft mounted to the playfield proximate to the impact ball. A travel ball is coupled to the shaft such that the travel ball rests against the impact ball during gameplay to receive momentum from the impact ball when the impact ball is struck by a game ball, causing the travel ball to at least partially rotate about the shaft. In one example, the travel ball rotates in a fixed arc towards one of two resting positions on either side of the impact ball. These two resting positions both open or close different shot paths available during gameplay.

An air table system is provided. Such a system includes an air table that includes a plurality of holes or perforations, a fan that blows air through the plurality of holes or perforations when activated, a puck component that glides across the air table when the fan blows the air through the plurality of holes or perforations, and an air activated component. The air activated component is positioned around an edge of the air table and includes an air activatable feature configured to be activated by the air when the air activated component is placed on the air table.

A cooler can include a game table formed in a top surface thereof. The game table can include a game surface surrounded by side walls about its perimeter for storage of the game elements and to prevent game elements, such as game balls, from escaping from the recessed game surface. The game surface can include elements for various games, including foosball, hockey, football, pool, craps, roulette, chess, checkers, backgammon or the like. In some embodiments, the game elements may be interchanged to provide multiple different games that can be played in the recessed gaming surface. In some embodiments, game players may be disposed on arms that extend across the game table in a manner similar to conventional foosball players. Such arms may be made removable to permit changing between game player-based games and games that can be played directly on the recessed surface.
