Gnip Gnop

Gnip Gnop (pronounced with hard G's, as in Swedish gnista) is a two-player plastic table-top game, consisting of a sides- and top-transparent rectangular enclosure containing six plastic balls.

The enclosure is bisected into two chambers or zones by a similarly transparent barrier having three holes slightly larger than the balls.

At each end of the unit a player uses any of a row of three hinged paddles to shoot the balls up a slightly inclined plane through the holes into the opposing player's zone.

Gnip Gnop was designed and named by Joseph M. Burck[1] of Marvin Glass and Associates for Parker Brothers.
