- 5 balls for 5 cents. Trap holes (18). The cabinet measures 43 inches long, 24 inches wide, 38 inches high in the front, and 42 inches high in the back. Each playfield hole is assigned a value ranging from 1 to 5. A device at center playfield instructs the player whether to shoot for a total hole score to exceed the number 18 (Over), or to shoot for a total hole score not to exceed the number 18 (Under). If Under, then the object is to get the lowest hole score as possible. If Over, then the object is to get the highest hole score as possible. The score card shows that different quantities of "skill points" are awarded to the player depending on how far from 18 the total hole value is, after shooting all five balls. We presume the "skill points" could be paid off at the location.
- ipdb.notes
- We previously listed this game as "Over and Under" until we saw pictures of the game itself. If there is an actual single name for this game, it is elusive. The upper playfield indicates "Over 18 Under" while its score card shows "Under-Even-Over". We have been unable to find an actual article or advertisement from the 1930's to help us know better. In cases of ambiguity, we use the name as it appears on the playfield as what users would be most likely to see when encountering this game.
