Abstract
This invention discloses a game of skill which brings into play the delightful and astonishing behavior of round rolling magnets. Players take turns tossing disc-shaped magnets into a cylindrical cup. The magnets gradually begin to stack up inside the cup, and eventually pile up above the rim to form a growing tower. The object is always to add a magnet to the stack without overturning the cup or the tower. Inevitably, the tower finally crashes down, and another round of the game begins.
