ABSTRACT:
A game having a vertical game board with an adherent surface supported from a horizontal game surface upon which a game piece transporter can be accelerated. The game piece transporter has weight and center of gravity located to prevent tipping and has a height adjustable, changable, adherent element capable of holding onto one side of a game piece, having mating adherent material, during acceleration and transit to or from the game board. The opposite side of the game piece has an adhering material compatible for mating with the adherent surface of the game board, depending upon the relative adherent strengths of the respective mating adherent surfaces, when the game piece transporter is accelerated to the game board. An elastic band is located across the base and in front of the vertical game board in the vicinity of the intersection of the game board and the horizontal game surface. The elastic band permits the game piece transporter to approach the game board close enough to permit removal or deposit of the game piece and rebound and return of the game piece transporter with or without, respectively, the game piece, to the player as the rules of the selected game routine dictate.
