ABSTRACT:
Provided is an amusement device whereby prizes, coins or tokens are dispensed through an elongated chute onto a platform area. A reciprocating blade pushes the prizes, etc., forward, eventually dispensing one or more over the edge of the platform to the player. A timed trap door mechanism whose actuation is both audible and visible to the player prevents tilting of the device to obtain prizes without winning them. The chute is constructed so that a significant degree of skill can be employed to optimize the number of prizes, etc., dispensed and thus, won by the player. The use of coins or tokens other than those of a predetermined size are rejected from the chute back to the player.
