ABSTRACT:
An electronic game is disclosed having an interactive play section of relatively large area which can quickly and easily be reconfigured to occupy a much smaller space. The interactive section does not require a rigid frame and is either flexible or includes flexible portions which enable it to be reconfigured, e.g., by folding, overlaying or rolling. The electronic game also includes an electronics section which may be rigid or include rigid parts but which is of a size such that the overall size of the game when the interactive section is reconfigured is effectively determined by the reconfigured interactive section. The particular game may be any suitable game which requires interactivity between the game and the player, for example, an electronic game which tests a player's reaction time and coordination by providing prompts to the player and scoring the responses. The interactive section provides the prompts, or receives the responses to the prompts, or both, and the electronics section controls issuing of the prompts and scores the responses.
