ROLL-DOWN ARCADE GAME

摘要

This invention is an arcade game including an inclined playing suface (14) and a coin directing mechanism (28). A coin hopper (44) forces multiple coins (30) through the coin directing mechanism (28) and onto the playing surface (14) for each activation of a button (26) by the player. The player can direct the multiple coins (30) in a desired direction down the playing surface (14) using the directing mechanism (28). The coins (30) roll toward one or more targets (34) on the playing surface (14), and a game score is adjusted based on the targets (34) that receive the coins (30). Indicators (38) for the targets (34) can highlight specific targets and goals during game play. A progressive bonus score (39) can also be added to the game score when a progressive goal is achieved by the player. After the game is over, a tilting mecanism (40) tilts the playing surface (14) to clear the playing surface of coins (30) that have not rolled into apertures (56) and are resting on the playing surface (14).
