A suction dart target game system includes a throwing member with a central protrusion, and first and second throwing suction cups; and a target piece with a first target suction cup; such that the target piece is attached to a mounting structure, such that a user can throw the throwing member at the target piece from a distance, optionally such that the throwing member rotates in flight, such that either the first throwing suction cup or the second throwing suction cup attaches to the first or second target suction cup or to a surface area of the mounting structure adjacent to the target piece, if a throw is successful. Also disclosed is a suction dart target game method, including positioning a target piece, throwing a throwing member, and measuring a distance.

A magnetic dart game. Darts are formed with a strong magnet portion in the front instead of a metal point. The front of the darts includes an impact or an elastomeric impact stop, which absorbs the force from the dart hitting the board, facilitating the dart sticking on the board in the location where it hits. The board is also magnetic and includes a magnetic vinyl printed section that contains the game board or target, which is used to play the game. This target can be changed to play either the games provided with the product or those designed and printed by the consumer. The dart system is formed with magnetic legs which are removable and also a magnetic scorer, with a portion of the scorer that moves up and down on a paddle, thus enabling the score to be kept magnetically.

A game assembly is configured to be used in a target throwing game. The game assembly has a target further comprising a three-dimensional polygon having twenty-six sides. A game surface is attached to at least one side on the three-dimensional polygon. A mounting bracket is attached to the target and to vertical surface joined to a ground surface. At least one ball has an attachment surface configured to detachably join to the game surface. Throwing the at least one ball at the game surface can score points for a user of the game assembly.

A spinner (100) adapted to spin on a surface comprising: a spinning mechanism (300) activated by a string (142); a structure encapsulating the spinning mechanism (300); a plurality of tentacles (110) having two ends, wherein each tentacle (110) is in connected to the structure on one end and terminated with a connector on the free end; a flywheel (122) having a tip (121), wherein the flywheel (122) is connected to the spinning mechanism (300) from the opposite side of the tip (121); and wherein upon pulling the string (142) the spinner (100) spins, wherein the tip (121) is in contact with the surface and the plurality of tentacles (110) are slightly elevated above the surface while the spinner (100) spins.

Disclosed is a dart game system which is capable of providing a laser lighting effect. The dart game system includes a dart game apparatus and a laser lighting apparatus, in which the dart game apparatus includes: a dart target which includes a plurality of segments and which a thrown dart pin hits, the plurality of segments including a plurality of receiving recesses for receiving respective thrown dart pins, each segment being set with a score corresponding to a position of each segment in the dart target; a sensing unit which detects a segment hit by the dart pin among the segments included in the dart target; and a controller which detects a hitting position of the dart pin at least partially based on a signal received from the sensing unit, progresses a dart game based on the hitting position of the dart pin, and controls the laser lighting apparatus, and the laser lighting apparatus is disposed at a position, at which the laser lighting apparatus radiates a laser to each segment of the dart target, and provides the laser lighting effect to the dart pin at least partially based on a determination of the controller.

The invention relates to dartboard games, where projectiles are thrown at a target. The face of the dartboard has a realistic, lifelike image of a game animal, and the higher scoring regions correlate to the kill zone of the game animal's anatomy. Lower scoring regions correlate to the rest of the body of the game animal, and penalty scoring regions may be present, scoring negative points. Players try to land their darts in certain scoring regions in order to score the most points, depending upon the rules of the game. Rules are provided for a 300 point and 21 point game. If the images are printed on the dartboard, the darts may be thrown or launched with an apparatus like a mini-bow or blow-gun. If the images are projected, the darts may be virtual.

A dart target game set featuring a baseboard and backstop with target locations for various point assignments and gameplay rules. In the preferred embodiment, the game features a canned beverage.

A tabletop horseshoe game for playing a horseshoes style game on a self contained game board includes a game board base having a substantially planar playing surface, a proximal end, and a distal end, a horseshoe projecting mechanism adjacent to the proximal end, and a fixed stake across the playing surface towards the distal end. The horseshoe projecting mechanism, which in one embodiment defines a pendulum style projecting member and an elevated launching pad is operative to be swung toward a mini horseshoe positioned on the launching pad so that it contacts the mini horseshoe and launches it towards the stake at a desired velocity and angle so that it may encircle the stake or otherwise be moved to a position close to the stake.

A competitive game for use with bottle caps for entertainment. The bottle cap game comprises of a bottle cap shooting gun and a wall mounted game board. The wall mountable game board includes a plurality of apertures having differing diameters. Players utilizes the bottle cap shooting gun to remove a bottle cap from a bottle and shoot the cap at the apertures in the game board. A digital counter integrated into the game board displays points each time a bottle cap is shot through one of the apertures on the game board and updates the score. The bottle cap game provides users with an entertaining game for parties involving any type of beverage served in bottles.

An amusement game that includes a target assembly that functions to receive an axe-shaped game piece. The amusement game includes a target assembly having one or more target areas that each include a series of spaced fingers designed to receive and retain the game piece when the game piece is thrown at the target area. After the game piece or pieces have been thrown, a sensor frame having a series of sensors detects the location of the game piece and a point total is assigned to the sensed location. A drive motor moves a release frame relative to the targets to release the game piece from the target. The release frame includes a wire mesh extending across an open area such that the wire mesh moves along the spaced fingers to release the game piece. A return conveyor receives the released game piece and automatically returns the game piece to the player.
