====Dexterity and coordination games==== This class of games includes any game in which the skill element involved relates to manual dexterity or hand-eye coordination, but excludes the class of video games (see below). Games such as [[Knucklebones|jacks]], [[paper football]], and [[Jenga]] require only very portable or improvised equipment and can be played on any flat level surface, while other examples, such as [[pinball]], [[billiards]], [[air hockey]], [[foosball]], and [[table hockey games|table hockey]] require specialized tables or other self-contained modules on which the game is played. The advent of home video game systems largely replaced some of these, such as table hockey, however air hockey, billiards, pinball and foosball remain popular fixtures in private and public game rooms. These games and others, as they require reflexes and coordination, are generally performed more poorly by intoxicated persons but are unlikely to result in injury because of this; as such the games are popular as [[drinking games]]. In addition, dedicated drinking games such as [[Quarters (drinking game)|quarters]] and [[beer pong]] also involve physical coordination and are popular for similar reasons.
