A game which can be used by either a sole player or preferably two players using the game in a competitive spirit is constructed to include within a housing a movable member. Upon activation, preferably by the first player, the movable member travels down a guide path from a first position to a second position. The second player then attempts to strike the movable member with a striking member. If the second player's movements are coordinated with the motion of the movable member and the movable member is struck at the appropriate time, a chance wheel is activated. The first player then controls the chance wheel by depressing a chance wheel stopping button which stops the chance wheel such that one of a plurality of indicia is exposed indicating the outcome of the second player's effect on the movable member. This outcome is then recorded on an accumulator for maintaining a record of the game. The movable member and the striking member are operatively connected such that the striking member is only capable of effectively striking the movable member when the movable member is in a predetermined striking position.
