ABSTRACT:
A shovel type game machine is adapted to pick up articles on a display platform. The game machine has a resiliently deformable bucket, and a bucket drive device for supporting the top of the bucket for tilting movement. The bucket drive device causes the bucket to perform its shoveling operation while tilting the bucket forwardly with a given force. The shoveling operation is performed by moving the pivot center of the bucket downwardly. Thus, the bucket can be resiliently deformed to move its tip below the articles.
