Pinball Roulette—NOVOMATIC/AUSTRIAN GAMING INDUSTRIES
October 25, 2012
New game combines fun of a pinball machine with roulette wagering
The result of over five
years of development and extensive testing, Pinball Roulette seamlessly mixes together two proven gaming
entertainment attractions, roulette and pinball, in one simple but dramatically
effective game.
Pinball Roulette is a single
player game that is activated by the player using a traditional pinball
launching device to deploy the ball onto the roulette wheel. The game’s
compelling key factor lies in its enhanced player interaction with the action.
The guest has the perception that, by varying the speed with which he launches
the ball onto the roulette wheel, he can help determine the outcome of the
game.
This, of course, is not the
reality: Pinball Roulette plays exactly to the defined rules of roulette (and
has already undergone stringent independent testing to prove that the game is
100 percent random) and the pinball is nothing more or less than a launching
mechanism. But the perception is what is important to the guest; suggesting
that he is both player and croupier at the same time.
