The game consists of poles that can be strategically or randomly placed around an open space before being paired with a ball on the top. Players must then try to [throw a flying disk](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electronic-throwing-game) to knock the pole and dislodge the ball; this eliminates the occurrence of arguments that could come about if the shot is questioned by other participants. The 'Zber' outdoor family game is for [two to six players](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mirfam) and even features an illuminated design that will enable participants to easily keep playing after dark in the warm weather. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.4/10 - Popularity: 78% | Activity: 44% | Freshness: 9% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Life-Stages](https://www.trendhunter.com/life-stages) > [Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/toys) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Customizable Outdoor Games:** Opportunity to develop more customizable outdoor games for families with different needs and preferences. - **Nighttime-friendly Games:** Opportunity to create more nighttime-friendly family games with illumination features. - **Active, Cooperative Play:** Opportunity to design more active games that encourage cooperative play among family members. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Toys and Games:** Expand product lines to offer customizable outdoor games and games with illumination features for families. - **Sporting Goods:** Develop and market more active games that encourage cooperative play for families. - **Outdoor Recreation and Leisure:** Offer more nighttime-friendly games and customizable outdoor games for families visiting outdoor recreational spaces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Engaging 3D Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foros-game.md) - [Board Game-Inspired Pastimes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arcade-and-table-game.md) - [Boozy Backyard Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beer-darts.md) - [Upgraded Family-Friendly Card Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dat-game-family-edition.md) - [Hybrid Party Game Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiburon-tables.md) - [Digital Marble Tabletop Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/funpop-tabletop-pinball-game.md) - [Blockish Oversized Stacking Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetris-tumble-xl.md) - [Video Game-Inspired Outdoor Play](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/getting-kids-outdoors.md) - [Nature Identification Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lets-explore-seek-find-bingo-play-set.md)
