Game system with spinning target element and method of use

Abstract

A game system which includes a spinning assembly made up of a spinner and a spinner wheel. The spinner wheel may include a number of targets, such as holes, which players attempt to hit as the spinning wheel spins about the spinner. The game elements may include several pins which the players use to score points by piercing the holes of varying sizes acting as targets through the wheel. A rules guide may be referenced to determine a target's point value.

Having thus described the invention, what is claimed as new and desired to be secured by Letters Patent is: 
     
         1 . A game system comprising:
 a spinning assembly comprising a disk-shaped spinner wheel and a spinner comprising a spinning point;   said spinner wheel comprising a plurality of targets of varying size, each of said plurality of targets comprises a value;   at least one scoring element configured to strike at said spinner wheel while said spinner wheel is spinning about said spinner, said at least one scoring element further configured to strike one of said plurality of targets, the attempted strike comprising an attempt; and   a score based upon said attempt.   
     
     
         2 . The game system of  claim 1 , wherein said surface comprises a game deck comprising a floor and four walls. 
     
     
         3 . The game system of  claim 2 , wherein said game deck comprises a box portion. 
     
     
         4 . The game system of  claim 1 , wherein each said one of said plurality of targets comprises a hole through said disk. 
     
     
         5 . The game system of  claim 4 , wherein each of said targets comprises a size selected from a set of four, distinguishable predetermined sizes. 
     
     
         6 . The game system of  claim 4 , wherein said at least one scoring element comprises an elongated body with a tip configured to be received within said plurality of targets. 
     
     
         7 . The game system of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 said spinner comprising a top half and a bottom half;   said top half and said bottom half being selectively separable; and   said top half and said bottom half configured to be joined together within a center hole of said spinning wheel.   
     
     
         8 . The game system of  claim 7 , wherein said top half of said spinner comprises a handle element. 
     
     
         9 . The game system of  claim 7 , wherein said bottom half of said spinner comprises a spinner point. 
     
     
         10 . The game system of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a random number generator configured to produce a random value; and   wherein said score may be modified based upon said random value.   
     
     
         11 . The game system of  claim 10 , wherein said random number generated is selected from a list comprising: a die; a deck of cards; and a second spinner. 
     
     
         12 . A method of playing a game, the method comprising the steps:
 providing a spinning assembly comprising a disk-shaped spinner wheel and a spinner comprising a spinning point;   wherein said spinner wheel comprising a plurality of targets of varying size;   spinning said spinner and thereby spinning said spinner wheel;   striking at said spinner wheel with a scoring element;   attempting to strike one of said plurality of targets with said scoring element, thereby performing an attempt; and   assigning a score based upon the result of said attempt.   
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 12 , further comprising:
 assembling said spinner about said spinning wheel by connecting a top half of said spinner with a bottom half of said spinner through a central hole of said spinning wheel.   
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 13 , wherein said top half of said spinner comprises a handle element. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 13 , wherein said bottom half of said spinner comprises a spinner point. 
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 12 , wherein each said one of said plurality of targets comprises a hole through said disk. 
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 12 , wherein each of said targets comprises a size selected from a set of four, distinguishable predetermined sizes. 
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 12 , wherein said at least one scoring element comprises an elongated body with a tip configured to be received within said plurality of targets.
