Trip Hammer (1974)

Trip Hammer is a game of speed requiring an accurate eye and a fast hand to score points on your opponent by being the first player each round to trap and lock the “trip hammers” on your opponent’s side of the board. The game begins with two “trip hammers” on each side of the board; each player then attempts to strike their respective hammers with a game ball. When struck correctly, each hammer will flip to the opponent’s side. When a player has all the hammers on his opponent’s side, he or she must push a red knob to lock the hammers and freeze the action, scoring points. The first player to 10 points is the winner.
