  • Method of playing a bingo-type game with a mechanical technological aid, and an apparatus and program product for playing the game
    Patent number: 8956212
    Abstract: A method of playing a bingo-type game includes the steps of generating a result of the game and displaying a representation of the result. The representation of the result of the game is displayed through a mechanical technological aid station. An apparatus for playing the game includes a server and the electronic play station in operative communication with the server. The server generates the called numbers, which correlate to the result of the game, and the electronic play station includes the mechanical technological aid for displaying the representation of the result of the game.
