Abstract: A coin is inserted into a coin slot and another coin is dropped from the top center of a playing field into a pachinko-type maze. The pachinko-type maze includes animated diverter pins and a series of capture gates. Each capture gate has associated therewith a pair of upper scoring lights and a pair of lower scoring lights that blink on and off. When the coin passes through a particular capture gate, if both pairs of scoring lights associated with that capture gate are illuminated, an indicator select light associated with the capture gate is illuminated and the player wins. Beneath the capture gates are a plurality of bin doors mounted to be pivotally openable by a bin door cam mechanism. If an indicator select light is illuminated, the player selects one of the bin doors to be opened and any coins lying on the bin door fall through the opening and into the payout hopper.

Abstract: A playing field has a plurality of pachinko mazes arranged side by side. Each pachinko maze has a scoring slot at the bottom of the maze. When each playing disk falls into a particular scoring slot, the value of the slot is determined. The value of each scoring slot is changed from game to game by means of a random electronic program so that different winning values occur. In one version of the game, the playing field comprises three parallel pachinko mazes and a disk is dropped into one of each of the pachinko mazes. Each pachinko maze has six scoring slots at the bottom thereof. At the beginning of each game, each scoring slot has one of three possible symbols illuminated--cherries, plum or jackpot. The player wins preselected amounts depending on which combinations of symbols the three playing disks fall into. In another version of the game, eleven playing disks are dropped into eleven parallel pachinko mazes, each maze having only two scoring slots--designated "left" or "right".
