Battle B-Daman

Battle B-Daman is a dexterity-based game where players shoot marbles at various kinds of targets. The marble launchers are little plastic robots; several different robots are available, each claiming to afford different levels of power, accuracy, and control. Other accessories introduce new target types and various kinds of loading systems.

The game is played in a four-foot long arena, bounded by plastic runners. Several events can be set up in this arena using the supply of pins, gates, sliding pucks, and knock-down targets provided by the game. The game details ten of these events, eight of which are playable out-of-the-box (with two others requiring "Direct Hit Battle" accessories, which are sold separately).

The ten events are:

Direct Hit Battle: Shoot at each other from across the arena, trying to disable your opponent.

B-Daman Blast : Shoot knock-down targets.

Hard Target: Shoot marbles through a five-arch gate at the five pins standing on the other side.

B-Daman Invasion: Knock a sliding puck across your opponent's goal line.

B-Daman Assault: Similar to B-Daman Blast, except that now your opponent is also trying to hit the knock-down targets from the other side of the arena.
