ABSTRACT:
An action game comprising a reservoir capable of holding a quantity of a material such as a liquid therein. A member for propelling a projectile, such as a catapult, is fixedly secured or swivably connected adjacent the reservoir, preferably one catapult or member being located at each end of the reservoir. One or more players directs a plurality of the projectiles using the catapult to a floatable object (e.g., boat-shaped) which floats on the material within the reservoir to try to sink the object in a competitive fashion. The floatable object includes a compartment to hold projectiles, so that the object can be submerged (i.e., sunk) in the material when a sufficient number of the projectiles is contained in the compartment. Each player can try to sink his or her opponent's floating object before his or her own floating object is sunk, or each player can compete by themselves against the clock.
