ABSTRACT:
A game apparatus is disclosed having a one-dimensional array of LED's which are sequentially activated in first and second sweep sequences which proceed toward first and second goal indicators, respectively. First and second buttons are provided which operate to reverse the first and second sequences, respectively, and the object of the game is for each player to operate his button before the appropriate sweep sequence causes his goal indicator to be activated. The rate of each sweep is variable and a player can select a higher sweep rate for his opponent by delaying his reaction until a relatively later time in the sweep sequence. The score is displayed on the same indicators as are used to play the game, and successively higher scores correspond in sequence to the sequence in which the indicators are activated during play.
