ABSTRACT:
A gaming apparatus includes a housing with a front operable surface and a visual display region thereon. The visual display region includes a plurality of windows disposed in a rectangular positional array of four rows and four columns with a plurality of paylines defined by a line intersecting four adjacent elements in a single row, column or diagonal on the array. A button or mechanical arm on the housing will cause all of the symbols in the array to be randomly selected and displayed as part of a gaming sequence. A payout is generated if one or more of the selected paylines contain a predetermined number of predetermined symbols. In a second embodiment of the invention, the housing includes a screen display of a roulette wheel of the type having four different colored balls simultaneously moving around the wheel, each ball operable to fall within one of thirty-eight slots on the wheel and the slots of a size to receive up to all four balls. Four windows are positioned on the housing, each window associated with one of said balls on the roulette wheel and displaying a symbol displayed in a slot within which the associated ball falls at the end of a gaming sequence. The machine generates payouts based upon the display of selected symbols from the roulette wheel within a predetermined number of the windows.
