A game comprising a submersible retrieving submarine adapted to receive and interpret RF directional command signals, an RF transmitting remote controller adapted for sending such signals to cause the craft to submerge and then cause the submerged craft to move in selected underwater directions, and targets of assigned values adapted for standing on the underwater bottom. The craft is adapted with a hook for engaging the targets and carrying them to the water's surface so that the accumulated value of the collected targets can be tallied to provide a score. One or more players can compete to tally the highest score, using either one controller/submarine set consecutively, or two sets simultaneously.

I claim: 1. A game comprising a submersible retrieving craft, a remote controller adapted for causing said craft to submerge in water and for then causing the submerged craft to move in selectable underwater directions, and targets of assigned values, said craft being adapted with means for engaging said targets and carrying said targets to the water's surface so that an accumulated value of said collected targets can be tallied to provide a score, and wherein one or more players can compete to tally a highest score. 2. The game of claim 1, wherein each of said targets includes an accepting feature, and said means for engaging said targets is an extension from said craft, which extension is adapted to mate with said accepting feature. 3. The game of claim 2, wherein said accepting feature is a hole positioned adjacent to the top of said target, and said extension is a hook extending forwardly from said craft. 4. The game of claim 3, wherein said hook includes a barb for retaining said target thereon after said target has been engaged. 5. The game of claim 1, wherein said craft is a submarine adapted to receive and interpret wireless signals, and said controller is a wireless signal transmitter adapted to send various directional signals to said submarine. 6. The game of claim 5, wherein said submarine is adapted to return to the surface of the water when no wireless signals are received. 7. The game of claim 6, wherein said submarine is so adapted to return to the surface of the water by being positively buoyant. 8. The game of claim 7, wherein each of said targets includes a hole positioned adjacent to the top of said target, and said means for engaging said targets is an extension from said craft which is adapted to mate with said hole. 9. The game of claim 8, wherein said extension is a hook extending forwardly from said craft. 10. The game of claim 9, wherein said hook includes a barb for retaining said target thereon after it has been engaged. 11. The game of claim 5, wherein said wireless signals are RF waves. 12. The game of claim 11, wherein said wireless RF waves are transmitted and received at a first given frequency, and further including a second such controller adapted to transmit RF signals of a second given frequency, and further including a second such submarine adapted to receive said RF signals of said second given frequency, so that both of said controllers and both of said submarines can be operated simultaneously without signal interference. 13. A method for playing an underwater retrieval game including; sending directional movement commands from a remote controller to a submerged retrieving craft which is adapted to engage and capture underwater targets, each target having an assigned value, causing said craft to bring said captured targets to the surface of the water, tallying accumulated values of said captured targets to create a score. 14. The method of claim 13 further including monitoring an elapsed time taken to capture a given quantity of said targets. 15. The method of claim 13, wherein said sending, causing and tallying are done by a first player, and wherein a second player so sends signals from a second remote controller to a second craft and causes said second craft to bring said second craft's captured targets to the surface of the water, and wherein each player tallies his respective score according to accumulated values of his submarine's captured targets to establish a winning player according to that player whose submarine has accumulated the highest score. 16. The method of claim 13, wherein said sending, causing and tallying are done by a first player, and wherein a second player so sends signals from a second remote controller to a second craft and causes said second craft to bring said second craft's captured targets to the surface of the water, and further including monitoring an elapsed time taken by each player to capture a given quantity of targets to establish a winning player according to that player whose submarine has captured said given number in the least amount of elapsed time.
