ABSTRACT:
A spiral rod that is rotated by a motor is disposed in a fall passage connected to a token chute4. A second special game medium AM2is captured at an opening W2between the spiral rod and a rear wall positioned diagonally rearward from the spiral rod. A first special game medium AM1is captured at an opening W1between the spiral rod and a rear fall guide, the opening W1being positioned on a downstream side of the opening W2. A token M passes through the openings W1and W2and is received by a token reception section. The special game media that have been captured are transferred due to the spiral movement of the spiral rod. The special game media are discriminated by a first rear side opening and a second rear side opening, and separately received by guide slopes.
