Cover the Spot!
It’s the ultimate test of optical precision and steady hands. Cover The Spot takes a centuries-old sidewalk hustle and transforms it into a premium interactive attraction that defies logic. It looks like a simple task of geometry, but as soon as the first disc is laid down, your guests will realize that "almost covered" is the most frustratingly fun challenge at the event.
The Challenge
The objective is simple, yet maddeningly precise: you are given five small metal discs and one large red circle. Your mission? Drop the discs one by one until the red circle is completely obscured. There’s no room for error—if even a sliver of red peeks through the gaps, the game continues. It requires a calm pulse, a strategic eye for overlapping edges, and a total mastery of the "drop." Do you have the surgical focus required to make the red disappear?
Why It’s an Event Essential:
-
The "I Could Do That" Factor: Unlike games that require physical strength or athletic ability, Cover The Spot feels winnable for everyone from children to CEOs. That approachability ensures a constant stream of challengers.
-
High-Stakes Visuals: Because the game is played on a flat surface, it naturally creates a "huddle" effect. Onlookers will lean in, hold their breath, and point out the tiny slivers of red that the player missed, creating instant engagement.
-
Compact & Portable: With one of the smallest footprints of any carnival game, it can be placed on bar tops, registration desks, or trade show counters without disrupting the flow of your floor plan.
-
The Perfect Hook for Prizes: Because it is notoriously difficult to master on the first try, it serves as the ideal "Grand Prize" gatekeeper for brand activations, product launches, or fundraising galas.
