Structures made from boxes, items made from boxes, play systems using such structures and/or items, play methods employing such structures and systems and/or items; and designs for such structures and items, methods for game playing, and to designs for such boxes. This abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract which will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure and is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims, 37 C.F.R. 1.72(b).

In one example, a system includes a movable object, a detection region including a playing surface for supporting the movable object, and a plurality of cameras spaced apart from one another about the detection region, each of the plurality of cameras configured to capture a field of view of the detection region. The system may further include a controller configured to determine the position of the movable object on the playing surface. The cameras may be configured to track the movement of the movable object on the playing surface. The output from the camera may be selected based upon the movement of the movable object on the playing surface. Sensors may be provided to gather telemetry data of the system so as to provide analysis of the system. The system may be part of or be used with various table sports or table games.

The present disclosure provides a goal secured to a table configured to receive a projectile from a tabletop game with a playing surface. The goal includes a net portion, at least one bracket, and a tray portion. The net portion has a first end and a second end. The net portion is movable between a first position and a second position. The net portion is configured to receive a first projectile in the first position and a second projectile in the second position. The at least one bracket is configured to receive at least one of the first end or the second end of the net portion. The tray portion is configured to store the first projectile and the second projectile.

The present disclosure relates to a support system for a gaming table including a first support bar of a gaming-table support, a second support bar of a gaming-table support, a third support bar of a gaming-table support, and a gaming-table support locking apparatus. The third support bar has an arcuate shape and is in a pivotable connection with the second support bar. The gaming-table support locking apparatus includes a first locking bar and a second locking bar. The second locking bar is configured to be in one of two states of being: a first state that allows the third support bar to rotate with respect to the second support bar; and a second state that prevents the third support bar to rotate with respect to the second support bar.

The present invention relates to the technical field of hockey-type table games, in particular to a game in which pucks are projected across a playing surface by means of a compression system that can be operated with the fingers of one hand and which aims to insert said pucks into a goal. Specifically, it provides a sliding puck multiplayer game having the possibility of adjusting the difficulty of the game and the number of players, characterized in that it comprises: a polygonal-shaped modular platform; a plurality of interchangeable connector bridges of different sizes that are connected to said modular platform; and a plurality of sliding pucks that are propelled by the effect of said elastic band, to go through said connecting bridges. In this way, it is possible to obtain a sliding puck game that allows a greater number of players simultaneously, with adjustable difficulty, portable and modular.

A fast-moving soccer/football action figures moving on a board; two players face off against each other. Each player controls two action figures plus a goalie. Miniaturized soccer play, just in time for the international soccer championship playoffs. A partial-boxed game board is laid out in professional soccer markings. Each of the action figures can “kick” ball by hand-activated spring-action of the figures. Goalie figure can be stationary of move to block shot on goal. A miniature ball or marble or a more flattened ball-object is used.

A tabletop shooting game, comprising: a projectile, a target and a shooter, the shooter including a stand defining a resting surface for receiving the projectile thereonto, an impactor and a biasing element for biasing the impactor towards the resting surface. The shooter is operable for shooting the projectile towards the target by moving the impactor to a loading position away from the resting surface with the projectile resting on the resting surface and subsequently releasing the impactor.

A game table includes a table body and a score counter mounted to the table body. The score counter includes a middle rod and a plurality of scoring beads. The scoring beads are movably sleeved on the middle rod. Two ends of the middle rod are provided with fixing rods, respectively. The two ends of the middle rod are inserted into fixing holes of the fixing rods to be positioned therein. The score counter has an ingenious design and can be installed conveniently. The installation and positioning accuracy is good. After a period of use, the middle rod of the score counter is still in the axis position, and the reliability of use is good.
