# HighStriker
|
||||
|
||||
**Tier:** 2-Intermediate
|
||||
|
||||
Carnivals and circuses have featured the HighStriker sideshow game since at
|
||||
least the 1930's. This game consists of a tower with a bell mounted at the top
|
||||
and a levered platform at the bottom. When the levered platform is struck with
|
||||
a mallet it causes a puck to travel up a track attached to the tower.
|
||||
|
||||
When the platform is struck the puck travels vertically up the track. If hit
|
||||
hard enough enough the puck will ring the bell, signifying a winner.
|
||||
|
||||
The objective of the Highstriker app is to simulate this carnival carnival
|
||||
game. Instead of physical force to move the puck up the track use an algorithm
|
||||
of your own design and a random number generator to determine the puck's
|
||||
speed and the distance it travels.
|
||||
|
||||
