game manufactured by World Wide Games of Delaware, Ohio. Gameplay Mechanics. The game functions as a specialized variation of a classic paddle-ball or cup-and-ball game: The Objective: Players hold the wooden handle and use a rhythmic flipping or swinging motion to launch the attached wooden ball into the air. Scoring: The goal is to catch the falling ball inside one of the cut-out holes in the paddle. Point Value: Each hole is labeled with a point value (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, or 25). Players accumulate points based on which hole the ball successfully lands through. Double-Sided Design This specific paddle is multi-game item. While this side features the Bonum Board, the reverse side typically functions as a Scoop Golf game, which uses a different scoring layout or pattern for a separate style of play. See pics
