King of the Hill - yellow tabletop ramp game with three yellow balls at the player end and five scoring holes at the top

King of the Hill

Hire from £325.

King of the Hill Hire

A tabletop ramp game and one of our regular carnival games for corporate fun days, school events and exhibition stands. Three yellow balls sit at the player's end of a six-foot sloped surface; roll each one up the ramp and aim to land it in one of the five scoring holes at the top - two lower holes worth 25 points, two outer holes worth 50 points, and one centre-top hole worth 100 points. Give each player three rolls and compare totals; highest score wins.

The challenge is pace control. Roll with too little force and the ball stalls before reaching any hole; too much and it bounces back or skips past. The right amount is less than you'd expect, and it takes most people a few attempts to find it - which is what keeps guests coming back without needing a prize at the end. Watching someone's ball creep towards the 100-point hole and then slide back is enough to stop people passing by.

No power is required and the game is self-explanatory without a dedicated operator. The unit sits on a trestle table with a 6ft × 2.5ft footprint, and it has been a regular part of our packages at Barnsley Metrodome alongside Flap Attack and Strike Zone.

Carnival Package and Prize Game Use

The scoring structure lends itself to a competition or prize draw with very little setup. Set a target - a cumulative score above a threshold, or landing a ball in the 100-point hole - and you have a working prize mechanic that runs without someone standing beside it to explain the rules. It also works as a straight head-to-head: two players rolling alternately, three balls each, highest total wins.

As part of a carnival side-stall package, King of the Hill sits naturally alongside Flap Attack, Roller Bowler, Whip n Skip and Strike Zone - all no-power tabletop games that share the same minimal-staffing format and work well set up as a row of games. The Maze Runner adds a freestanding element if you want to vary the footprint.

We own this unit in-house from our 25,000 sq ft warehouse in Rotherham, five minutes from the A1, M1 and M18, and we've been supplying carnival game hire since 1999.
