Handheld Electronic Game

Handheld Electronic Game © 1980 Barlow Design, Gordon.

A hand-held electronic game which uses a two-way mirror arrangement to simulate the battle between the player's rocket ship protected by barriers and a plethora of enemy rocket ships. The enemy rocket ships and the barriers are affixed on two parallel, spaced apart, vertical planes. Apertures in the front plane give the impression in the two-way mirror that the devices on the different planes are all in the same plane. In addition, the player's rocketship and death ray, on a horizontal plane, are also projected on the two-way mirror so that it appears that all the devices are in a single plane.
