- IPDB 'El Rancho' was advertised by Keeney as the same game as Keeney's 1962 'Hacienda' but with the 'Panascope Vision Unit' in the backbox. Both games show the name 'El Rancho' in center playfield. We previously showed a date for this game of Apr-21-1962. Articles in Cash Box dated Feb-10-1962 page 54 and The Billboard dated Feb-17-1962 page 51 each stated that both 'El Rancho' and 'Hacienda' had begun shipping the week before. This is a gambling machine disguised as a pinball. The score card and operations manual are purposely written to obscure this fact. Instead of a small and obvious three-digit counter to add and subtract replays, as bingo machines have, this game uses three large score reels (called Total Score) to count the games won. If the player chooses to play off these games won, these score reels do not subtract. Instead, with each press of the replay button, three other score reels (called Sub-Total) increment to count the games played off. If the player chooses to cash out, the location would subtract the Sub-Total from the Total Score and pay the difference, one dime for each point. At the top of the backglass are bulb scores to exceed 900 points. This is the actual player score earned by the ball on the playfield, referred to as the "High Score". See the 'Rules of Play' attachment for further explanation. used
