Abstract
A domed game including a transparent dome mounted to a hollow base with game balls enclosed therein. The base has a top surface comprising a shoulder and a concave cavity. A plurality of ball recesses are arranged along the shoulder. A colored lever is associated with each of the ball recesses. Protruding from the top of the dome is a movable activating member. When the activating member is moved to an activated state an engaging member connected to the activating member, slides to an engaged position whereby power is supplied to a motor. The motor is operatively connected to a rotating member in the bottom of the base which rotates and thereby causes the balls in the base to randomly project into the dome. Some of the projected balls will randomly fall or drop into the ball recesses. The user depresses the lever and thereby ejects from the ball recess balls that do not match in color with the associated lever. The first player or user to obtain balls in each of the ball recesses which match the color of the associated levers wins.
