Definitions
- This invention relates to gaming devices, especially those with a first chance means and a plurality of serially dependent second chance means.
- Gaming devices such as slot machines, have been known to entertain players for some time. However, over time, such devices lose their novelty and hence their entertainment value for many players.
- Japanese Patent No. 5-131044 to Taiyo Jidoki K.K. teaches a gaming device having a card game shown on a video monitor and a single wheel that is manually operable to depict an outcome. Although a single wheel is involved in this device, it is nothing like the invention presented in this application.
- a spinning reel gaming device is provided with a plurality of spinnable wheels.
- a player enables the reels spinning, in the event the reels stop in a "WIN" position as displayed, the player is credited with a win as expected.
- a special indicia such as "SPIN” appears, preferably on the third reel of the three reels, a first wheel on a protruding tower will spin.
- the multi reel first chance means each has a reel that is intimately associated with a respective one wheel of a multi wheel array.
- the secondary wheel game includes three wheels, one per reel. Any of the multiple wheels is to be enabled upon the occurrence of a condition associated with it's designated reel.
- a three reel array has three wheels, reel one is linked to wheel one, reel two is linked to wheel two, and reel three is linked to wheel three.
- reel N is linked to wheel N. Reel N+l is linked to wheel N+l, etc. Thus, should reel N have a certain outcome, it will enable it's corresponding wheel N.
- the wheels are serially dependent, in the present variation, one wheel is preferably inextricably linked to an associated reel such that there is one wheel per reel. Should all of the plural wheels be engaged by a certain set of outcomes on the associated reels, the three wheels will bestow upon the player an added bonus. In addition, if the three wheels each achieve a certain outcome, an additional bonus wheel will be activated pursuant to a special rule set.
- the plurality of possibly spinning wheels combined with the reels enhances the entertainment value of the gaming device to a player. This is especially important in that a typical player need not learn any special instructions or strategies.
- the gaming device provides a more entertaining environment without such undue burden on the player, thus providing more entertainment value to the player.
- a gaming apparatus comprising, in combination, a wager input means, a game processor enabled by the wager input means, display means driven by the processor upon wager input, the display means including indicia defining an outcome, comparator means evaluating the outcome versus a paytable, and a plurality of wheel devices, serially enabled including an output bonus for each wheel device, and a first wheel device enabled by an outcome of the display means and each successive serially enabled wheel device is enabled only when a previous wheel displays a mandated outcome.
- a gaming device having a multiple reel display having N individual reels, N wheels, one wheel per reel and an outcome of each said reel which enables its respective wheel.
- a method for gaming the steps including, receiving a wager, enabling N reels, and enabling a plurality of N wheels based on whether a said reel with which a said wheel is related has a specific output.
- Figure 1 is a front view of the invention.
- Figure 2 is a right side view of the invention.
- Figure 3 is a top view of the invention.
- Figure 4 is a flow chart of one possible gaming process of the invention.
- Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of the invention.
- Figure 6 is a front view, similar to figure 1 of a second version of the invention.
- Figure 7 is a second flow chart for use for example with the second version.
- reference numeral 10 is directed to a gaming device having first chance means and serially dependent second chance means according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
- the gaming device is made up of two main components: a lower slant-top pedestal base 12 and an upper wheel tower 14.
- a lower slant-top pedestal base 12 includes monetary input means for coins or tokens 24 or cash or cards 26.
- the base also includes means for actuating reels 16, the means including a reel spin button 52 which enables reels 16 to so spin.
- Other means such as a handle arm, could also be used of course.
- Included with this gaming device are three reels 16, reel one 18, reel two 20 and reel three 22, each attached preferably to a stepping motor 62 (see figure 5).
- each reel 18, 20, 22 has indicia 56 thereon to so depict an outcome according to reel alignment upon cessation of reels 18, 20, 22 spinning. Of course, more reels could be involved.
- Special indicia such as the "SPIN" symbol 58 depicted on the third reel 22, are specially provided.
- the tower portion 14, on the other hand, supports three wheels 28, 30, 32, each rotatably attached to its own respective stepping motor 60. Indicia 34, 38, 40 are presented upon each wheel as well, along with another special symbol 36.
- a pointing device 46 is provided for indicating an outcome to a player.
- Fans 68 provide a cooling source for the invention.
- a player inserts a coin or token into slot 24 or cash or playcard into receptacle 26. Thereafter, the player may choose to press the "MAX BET” button 54 to maximize potential credit outcomes of the game.
- the reels 18, 20, 22 are started spinning. This is accomplished by a processor 64 within the gaming device 10 coupled to the "SPIN” button 52.
- the processor 64 programmed for this gaming device, then stops the reels 18, 20, 22 by means of stepping motors 62 as indicated above and displays an outcome as depicted by indicia 56.
- the player is credited with an appropriate credit. If a "SPIN" symbol appears on at least one reel, preferably reel three 22, the processor starts wheel one 28 spinning. At an appropriate moment that first wheel 28 is then stopped by processor 64 via stepping motor 60, displaying an outcome as indicated by pointer 46 vis-a-vis the indicia therein beneath. If the indicia 34 is a number, then that amount is credited to the player. If the pointer 46 indicates the special symbol 36, then the second wheel 30 starts spinning as accomplished again by the gaming program, processor 64 and comparator 66.
- the outcome is again displayed on that wheel beneath pointer 46. Again, if the indicia is numeric, that amount is credited to the player. If the special symbol 36 is indicated, the third wheel 32 is started spinning, not unlike above. The same results are delineated for the third wheel 32 except if the special symbol 36 is depicted on the third wheel 32, the player receives a maximum award or "jackpot" and tower light 44 is activated. Certainly, the entertainment value of this game could be further enhanced by providing greater numeric indicia on each wheel as the next successive wheel in order as portrayed in figure 1.
- a plurality of reels R R 2 , Rg,... R N is shown in figure 6, with a first reel labeled 18 A, a second reel 20 A and a third reel 22 A. It is preferred that the player play the maximum number of coins or the maximum wager in order to enable all features of the present invention. Assume, as shown in figure 6 that at least one "spin" symbol appears on the central payline shown in figure 6. In the present example, because the first reel enjoys the benefit of the word "spin" on the payline, then the first wheel W . located directly above reel 1 will rotate in the direction of the double ended arrow shown in figure 6. Had reel 2 also had its "spin" symbol located on a payline, wheel W 2 would have also spun about the direction of the arrow shown immediately adjacent thereto.
- wheel W N would have similarly been enabled.
- the three wheels shown are immediately correlated, each to the lower adjacent reels. Thus, there is one wheel per reel and any one reel can motivate its associated wheel upon the existence of certain indicia, for example "spin".
- the three wheels, Wl, W2...W N bear reference numerals 28A, 30A and 32A respectively.
- a display 90 in the form of a cash odometer is shown should the machine be coupled to a progressive system in which a plurality of wagers received from comparable machines have a portion of each wager sequestered into a pool for a communal opportunity from the multiple players to winning the amount posted on the odometer 90.
- the segments will be marked as "pass, fifty, collect/half, 100, pass, 40, collect, 10, pass, 30, collect /double, 100, pass, 20, collect, and 10".
- the word "collect” preferably, the amount of money displayed on the odometer 90 will be endowed to the player. Conversely, collect/half reduces that sum whereas collect /double will double the sum posted.
- the other numbers will reflect a cash value for the player who has reached the bonus round.
- This bonus round enabling the big wheel 80 is preferably only available by having all "spins" oriented with respect to pointer 94 on all of the wheels. Anything less than all of the wheels 28, 30, 32, etc.
