Coin game machine requiring player skill

摘要

A carousel of rotating arms provides a circular excursion, raising and lowering the arms at fixed locations in the excursion. A target is carried by each arm. A coin chute drops coins at a location where the target passes. The player skill is to roll a coin down a coin chute so that it drops off the end thereof at the instant when a target is positioned to catch it. If desired, the targets may be shaped to require different skill levels by the person who rolls the coin. A microprocessor controls the game machine and pays off according to a programmed schedule. The operational parameters of the game machine may be changed by software adjustments.
