ABSTRACT:
A tilting projectile game that can be played by 1 to 4 people and consists of a base, 4 paddles, 4 paddle tilting assemblies and a spherical projectile. The paddle tilting assemblies connect the paddles to the base in a closely grouped 2×2 array and enable each paddle to be individually tilted in any direction while preventing the paddles from touching each other. Each paddle has one or more holes, which are large enough for the projectile to pass through, and the base is shaped to channel the spherical projectile into retrieval areas at the ends of the base after the projectile has fallen below the paddles. A control knob attached to each paddle is used to maneuver the paddle and control the motion of the projectile and can cause the projectile to roll or jump from one paddle to another.
