Abstract
A multi-vehicle interactive combat type game is disclosed. The game includes first and second controllers each of which communicates with at least one vehicle. Each controller is capable of selectively generating control signals comprising at least a first command signal and a movement command signal and for conveying the control signal to the vehicle controlled thereby. Each vehicle includes a receiver for receiving the control signals, a transmitter for transmitting an electromagnetic signal in a substantially straight line path when the fire command signal is present, a motor for moving the vehicle when the movement command signal is present, a sensor for detecting impingement of an electromagnetic signal fired by another vehicle, and an indicator for providing an indication that the sensor has detected the impingement of the electromagnetic signal.
