Abstract:

Ball game having a two-sided tower, one side associated with each playing competitor. The tower has a base supporting two sets of five tubes, each associated with one team. The tubes have five key holes aligned vertically. Each team has twenty five keys numbered from 1 to 25. Each team has five balls; four unmarked, one marked. The teams place the keys into key holes on its tubes. Next, the teams place one ball in each tube, the balls prevented from falling through the tubes by ball-blocking portions of keys. The teams alternate directing their opponents to remove one key. The removed key is surrendered to the requesting team, who places the key into its key track. Once all five keys have been removed from one tube, the ball falls through the tube, onto a ramp and into the team's ball pit. The object is to guess the correct combination of keys to be removed to release the opponent's marked ball.

Abstract:

A memory game kit including groups of playing tiles and chip boards marked with a color for each player. The tiles of each colored group are numbered from 1 to 7. The object is to pick up all seven game tiles sequentially from 1 to 7 and place them in order on his chip board. Players uncover one game tile. If the tile sought is not uncovered, play passes to the next player. If the game tile turned is the tile bearing the 1 of that player's color, the tile is placed into the chip board in the 1 position. If the tile is not correct, it is turned back over, and the next player plays. Once a player has placed the number 1 tile in his chip board, the player attempts to locate the 2 tile. Play ends when one player finds tiles bearing the numbers 1 through 7.
