ipdb.notes
IPDB Circa 1933. The instruction card translates as follows: 1. Insert a 0.25 coin in the slot located above the push lever. 2. Push that lever at maximum stroke and let it return to normal position only once all the balls have drained. 3. Raise the balls one at a time using the elevator located on the right side of the machine. Play only one ball at a time and bring it up in front of one of the 3 lanes after running the complete loop by grabbing the 2 handles located on the front of the machine. 4. Try to reach the 1000 that is located at the end of each channel trying to avoid the other holes. The game shown here is attached to a flat table-top stand that was made by the current owner using old wood and new springs. The previous owner had used a wrought iron floor stand that he had made. We do not know what the manufacturer's stand looks like, but the current owner stated he had seen this game in a French bistro in the 1980s and it was mounted on a board similar to the one shown here. Although this stand is after-factory, we include pictures of it because the manner in which it is connected to the game cabinet is integral to understanding the operation of this game. Except for this stand, everything else on the game is the manufacturer's original product. An electro-mechanical game with a tilting playfield is International Mutoscope Corporation's 1956 'Rock 'N Roll The Crazy Maze'. A solid-state game with a tilting playfield is Williams' 1983 'Rat Race'. used
ipdb.notable_features
IPDB 6 balls for 25 centimes. Square Machine. Inserting a coin into the slot allows the knob beneath it to be pushed inward to release all played balls to the ball trough. After shooting a ball into play, the player uses two handles on the front of the cabinet to incline the playfield (actually inclining the entire cabinet) to maneuver the ball towards the 1000-point score pockets. The cabinet is mounted to its stand on a ball joint to allow for this flexible movement, and four springs are attached to the bottom of the cabinet for stability. The cabinet measures 61 cm long, 56 cm wide, 21 cm high in the front, and 26 cm high in the back. used
