Abstract A game comprising an elongated playing board having a first wide end with sidewalls tapering toward a narrow opposite end and a concave upper surface, the curvature of which extends between the sidewalls, the upper surface being inclined downwardly from the first end to the narrow end, and a plurality of longitudinally spaced receiving means located in the upper surface, whereby it is the object of the game to roll a spherical playing piece on the surface from the first end toward the opposite narrow end so that the piece will move from side to side as it rolls down the surface along a path which avoids the receiving means. If the path is imperfect, the playing piece will be caught in one of the receiving means.
A game board comprising: a wide first end, two sides tapering from said first end to a narrow second end, a playing surface extending concavely between the two sides of the board, a plurality of apertures in the playing surface, said apertures being spatially disposed from each other from one end to the other end of the board, and means for adjusting the elevation of one end of the board relative to the opposite end thereof, said means for adjusting said board elevation comprising a screw member engaging a threaded aperture adjacent one end of the board.
