Peg Top
2–4 players · 0 min
All children find great amusement with a SPINNING TOP of any character, together with the use of PEGS in recording scores in games. This novelty has been prepared with this in mind. First, the Top is Spun and when "dead" the handle points to one of four numbers. A Peg is then inserted in a Hole at one side of the board to register the player's score and the first player having PEGGED IN over his course of 30 HOLES WINS.
(From the instructions. All capitalizations are as they appear in the rules.)
The game is very basic. It has a shallow metal cup in the middle of the board. You spin the top in the cup and when the it stops, the player the top's peg is pointing towards gets a point.
