An amusement device having a base with a controller, an interchangeable rotatable inclined game board having a plurality of rolling element pathways thereon, and a rolling element that can be introduced onto the interchangeable game board and manipulated by the user through rotation of the controller to move through a plurality of pathways to an exit hole. The exit chute is alignable, by rotation of the game board using the controller, with a gap in a stabilizing ring and an adjacent recess in the base, to enable the gravitationally assisted removal of a rolling element from the play surface to a storage compartment to store the rolling elements that are successfully moved to the exit chute by the user.

An integrally-formed finger manipulation skill toy having an elongated central shaft and a bell at each end of the shaft, the bells having a width greater than that of the shaft. The toy has cylindrical symmetry about its longitudinal axis and mirror symmetry about a mirror plane through its midpoint to which the longitudinal axis is a normal vector. The contour when viewed in profile along an axis in the mirror plane and through the midpoint has concave regions in the center and convex regions at the ends.

Disclosed is a ball throwing game machine in which, when a ball is hit by a hitting device whose hitting force is controlled by a handle, the ball is thrown to fly toward a game operation part and enters the game operation part, and here, a control device, which has received a light emission color signal and a ball entry signal from the game operation part, outputs a score signal to a score display device that corresponds to the light emission color signal from the game operation part to display a predetermined score on the score display device corresponding to the light emission color signal from the game operation part at the time the ball enters.

An arcade game having a housing that forms an interior compartment containing three lower and three upper platforms and a perforated platform. The three lower platforms are underneath the perforated platform, tilted toward downwardly, and parallel to each other. The perforated platform is horizontal with a plurality of apertures configured to allow a ball to pass through them. Two levers at the front of the housing are pivotally connected to a bracket and mechanically coupled to one of the upper platforms via a cable and pulley. A central connecting rod extends through the center of the three upper platforms with a ball bearing at each point at which the rod passes through the platform. Two rear connecting rods connect the rear corners of the three upper platforms to each other with a ball bearing at each point at which the rear connecting rods extend through the platforms.
