Game having illustration-bearing projectile

Abstract

A game apparatus is disclosed including a generally vertically extending playing surface including front and back walls, a projectile launching station, and a projectile receiving station. The front wall of the apparatus bears partial or incomplete illustrations of objects, such as head-less bodies, and the projectiles include illustrations of the missing portions of the objects illustrated on the front playing surface wall, such as the missing heads. The front playing surface wall is generally transparent or includes an aperture at the locations of the missing portions of the illustrations so that when a projectile is launched into the proper location in the projectile receiving station, the projectile will complete the illustration on the front wall of the apparatus. The projectiles are weighted eccentrically to aid in landing the projectiles in the projectile receiving station in an upright position such that the projectiles properly complete the illustrations on the front wall on the apparatus. The launching station includes an air bellows operated propelling device adapted to propel the projectiles toward the projectile receiving station.
