Editor’s Note: It was a race against time in Ideal’s hidden maze game, No Peekie. Players attempted to guide a ball through a maze without the benefit of being able to see the position of the ball as it rolled along. Guided by a map of the maze on the game’s closed lid, competitors aimed for a perfect run within the two-minute time limit. Frustrated players could lift the lid to get a peek at their position, but that peek cost valuable time and precious points when it came to determining the winner.
