Abstract: An arcade game is disclosed having a rotating roulette type wheel with holes along a concentric circle of the upper face, and a coin track for carrying a coin from a player to the roulette type wheel at the position of the holes, which serve as targets. An optical sensor signals a microprocessor that a coin is entering the rotating playing field, and a second optical detector detects the nearest target and communicates a target value to the microprocessor. The microprocessor compares the timing of the coin passing through the coin track and the passage of the most proximal target, and awards the target value of the time between the two events is within a predetermined interval.

Abstract: An arcade type amusement device is disclosed including a skill portion wherein a projectile such as a token is aimed at a target via a guidance mechanism such as an elongate chute. A deflector may be used to alter the path of the projectile, where the deflector is intermittently present along the trajectory of the projectile so as to require timing to engage the deflector. Upon a successful strike of the target, a ball is released down a helical track toward a rotating playing field interspersed with holes assigned various values. When a ball reaches the rotating playing field, it will rebound and roll until it falls within one of said holes, whereupon a point value is awarded based on the particular value of the hole. The player may receiver redemption tickets or points based on the point value awarded.

Abstract: An amusement device characterized by a crane mechanism maneuverable within a target bin by a player includes targets having a circular profile of varying diameters. A game value is associated with each target according to the diameter size of the target, and a ticket dispenser is provided for dispensing tickets of a number or value corresponding to the value of a captured target value.
