Abstract: A coordination-skill-oriented, action target game machine, affording opportunities to score points by successfully timing insertion of a coin or other token into the machine, by timing the token insertion in relation to the motion of a rotating aperture wheel having apertures which the token must traverse to reach a target aperture behind the aperture wheel, in order to score points for a corresponding award by a ticket dispenser mechanism. After insertion into a fixed accepting mechanism, the token rolls down an inclined ramp of the general form of a ski jump, acquiring sufficient momentum to jump to the aperture wheel, where it either passes through an aperture to reach the target aperture and score points for the player, or is blocked by the aperture wheel, if it misses any aperture of the wheel. The apertures of the aperture wheel are slots having varying widths, and the scoring is higher for plays which traverse the narrower apertures.
