A game that dispenses water onto a user is described, as well as methods of play and apparatuses for same. In some embodiments, water is dispensed from headgear after receiving a wireless transmission from a transmitter located on a gun, console or other device.

The invention provides a game apparatus having matched inner and outer vessels and a set of cards that can be used to play a game. Each vessel of the game apparatus is configured to hold a liquid such as water or beer, which can be dispensed into the vessel body through the open top. The outer vessel is larger than the inner vessel and configured to hold the inner vessel in a substantially upright position and rotatable in its hollow interior. The matched inner and outer vessels can be used to play a game in which two or more players take turn adding at least a drop of water to an inner vessel placed in a fluid-filled outer vessel until a player loses by causing the inner vessel to sink by adding more fluid than the inner vessel can hold. The invention also provides a plurality of karma cards that are content matched to a two-vessel game apparatus. A karma card can stipulate one or more actions to be taken when a player causes the inner cup to sink to a position identified by an outcome element on the outer cup. The invention methods for playing games using the matched two-vessel game apparatus, as well as score cards.

A flying object water game by which an object is thrown or tossed at a framework on which water emitting targets reside. A target framework includes one or more detachable water emitting targets. A first team defends the framework while a second team throws or tosses, from a predetermined distance, a flying object at the target framework and associated water emitting targets with the objective to hit and detach one or more targets from the framework.

A scoring device for scoring a snowball fight. The device worn by a person has a target portion and a scoring chamber portion. The target portion includes a target, and the scoring chamber portion is coupled below the target portion and is arranged to accumulate and store snow falling from the target portion. In some embodiments the target portion also includes a permeable layer coupled to the target in a spaced apart construction to form an interior region between the permeable layer and the target, the permeable layer configured to allow snow from snowballs to pass through the permeable layer and into the interior region before falling into the scoring chamber portion. In some embodiments a stopper element at least partially separates the target portion from the scoring chamber portion, to limit the amount of snow that exits the scoring chamber portion when the person bends over.

A spinner ball game apparatus comprising: a basket, the basket comprising an upper rim, and lower base, the upper rim having a diameter larger than the lower base; and a ball configured to be thrown into the basket and if properly thrown, able to make one revolution around the inner surface of the upper rim before falling into the lower base. A method of playing spinner ball, the method comprising: standing about 10 to 12 feet away from a basket; throwing a ball into the basket; scoring 3 points if the ball makes a complete revolution of the upper rim of the basket before falling into the bottom of the basket; scoring 2 points if the ball makes a complete revolution, but a portion of the revolution is below the upper rim; and scoring 1 point if the ball does not make a complete revolution but lands in the basket.
