ABSTRACT:
A target game includes a rotating cylindrical housing, including a top surface with an interior cavity, with the top surface of the cylindrical housing demarcated into a multiplicity of segments to include a central area, medial segments, and outer segments, with each of the segments and central area demarcated into various scoring zones. A bottom surface of the top wall of the cylindrical housing includes magnetic strips mounted medially and radially relative to the outer segments, with a plurality of parallel magnetic strips positioned within the central and medial segments to accommodate ferrometallic discs directed onto the top wall to utilize rotational spinning of the housing in conjunction with magnetic forces to effect arbitrary point totals as the discs are projected into various of the segments.
