A simulated game using miniature animate or inanimate objects which are intended to move in a direction and/or toward or away from each other includes utilizing a hollow ball or other rolling toy for at least some of the miniature objects. Movement of the toy is controlled by a remote controlled unit. In a preferred practice of the invention a frame is detachably mounted over the toy. The frame supports three dimensional structure simulating the object.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A remote controlled rolling toy assembly comprising a toy having at least one rolling surface for being in rolling contact with a support surface, a drive unit in said toy having a drive mechanism for causing said rolling surface to rotate upon actuation of said drive unit, a remote control unit for selectively actuating and inactivating said drive unit to selectively cause said toy to move over the support surface, a frame detachably mounted over said toy, said frame having structure for simulating an animate/inanimate object, said rolling surface being a spherical ball having a horizontal diameter at the widest portion of said ball, said frame having an inner wall surface and a lower edge, said lower edge extending to at least said horizontal diameter, said frame and said ball making multi-point contact with said ball including at a plurality of locations at said widest portion of said ball, said inner wall surface of said frame and said ball making low friction contact with each other at said points of contact, and the minimum spacing between opposite portions of said inner wall surface of said frame at said horizontal diameter and downward to said lower edge being at least as great as the length of said horizontal diameter to facilitate the mounting and removal of said frame from said ball, a second frame having a structure for simulating a different object, said second frame capable of being dropped on and over the toy to replace the other frame in use.
