VekomaRulz Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Stacker is programmed to pay out only after a set number of losing plays (number is determined by game operator). Its the same with Key Master and similar games. There are videos on YouTube of the top level on Stacker in slow motion showing it skip the winning spot when it isn't set to pay out. For Hi Striker, Great Adventure has it setup where you play for fun and you win a prize no matter what score you get. That seems to work well for them since kids don't get disappointed that they got nothing for playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malem Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Stacker is programmed to pay out only after a set number of losing plays (number is determined by game operator). If such a configuration were used, it could meet the definition of a slot machine instead of a game of skill. Amusement parks, for legal and other reasons, install the latter type of game. If any park which isn't a gambling establishment is using a game where winners are partially (or fully) determined by the number of previous winners/losers, they should be informed of the defect. Depending on the laws of the particular jurisdiction, it could be a serious matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanna Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 A guy that I knew that worked at LeSourdesville said it had to do with where you hit, not how hard; it was a leverage thing- (This guy later became Franklin Ohio's famous "Mr. Frosty".) I don't know how it works now that it's become digitized, but that's how the old one worked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsislandfan1972 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I won a huge Spongebob three years ago by playing the game where you throw balls at clowns and knock them down, took me two trys, next to the arcade with the big claw machines by the Flight of Fear, thats the only game I've easily won besides the guess your age game.
