A tethered ring and bottle game apparatus and method which includes two basic elements that when combined and mounted to structures in practice are used in a game of chance and skill. The two elements are: an embodiment which supports a bottle either in a free state, cradled, or constrained in a substantially vertical position while fixated above ground level on a vertically erected structure; and an embodiment comprised of a ring and tether assembly having a ring of sufficient size to fit over a bottle opening and is attached, joined, or knotted on one end of a tether, while the other end of the tether is fixated to an overhead support at a position substantially above the bottle height and between the player and the bottle. In method, the ring is swung, tossed, or flipped in a pendulum type of movement relative to the overhead support; and in the direction of the bottle target in an endeavor to capture the ring around the upper proximity of the bottle opening and neck. When the ring is successfully captured around the opening and neck of the bottle, the player has won.

A position or score indicator for a game such as swingball comprises a casing, moving score indicators 8,9 on opposite external sides of the casing, an internal gear drive system, and an external arm to which equipment for playing a game is attached and which when drives the internal gear drive system to move the score indicators to indicate player scores.

Aspects of the present disclosure generally pertain to a piata interaction device, system, and method. Aspects of the present disclosure more specifically are directed toward an electronic device for a piata that includes a housing, a power supply, a speaker, an impact sensor, an user interface, and a controller module configured to store a plurality of piata communications to emit at least one of the plurality of piata communications in response to the piata being hit. The electronic device is removably coupleable with at least one of the piata and the hitting stick. The electronic device may be reconfigured to output customized responses or from a wide library of audio is stored which can be selected from music, voice, instructions or sounds of various kinds. The electronic device may interact with third party devices via hosted application.

A two-player versus game system which can be completely disassembled and stored for easy storage and transport, and which can quickly be assembled into a functioning game system. The system includes a central tower from which a ring or a ball on a string hangs over the playing area. A scoring element is extended vertically on either side of the player area, one for each player. The base of the container can include score-keeping devices attached thereto, such as sliding beads on a rod for quickly tabulating when a player scores a hook on a ring or a ball in a basket. The scoring elements and the central tower both can all be removed from their respective receivers within the base of the container and laid flat within the container, and the lid can close the container.

The present invention generally relates to the field of games and game accessories. Specifically, the invention relates to a piata holding apparatus with an adjustable upright support and arm assembly capable of adjusting the configuration of the device, as desired by a user.
