ABSTRACT:
A dice displaying apparatus for a computer game machine includes a trackball operable by each player. Rolling speeds of two dice are derived from an amount and direction of operation of the trackball. Rolling angles of the dice are also derived from the amount and direction of operation of the trackball, with slight angles derived from random numbers added thereto. Display positions for the respective dice are determined every predetermined intervals of time from the rolling speeds and rolling angles. Image patterns of varied phases of rolling dice corresponding to the rolling angles are presented in the respective display positions on CRT displays.
