ABSTRACT:
A video game apparatus includes simulated cylindrical housings that are filled with simulated numbered balls that are apparently mixed by a simulated upflowing stream of air through the cylinders. After the passage of a predetermined amount of time, the mixing stops and a simulated ball having a simulated number appears in a simulated ball trapping member above each cylinder to create the impression that the trapped simulated balls escaped their associated cylinders by riding the simulated upflowing airstream. Mechanical buttons are pressed by a player to select a player's random number, and a random number generator in the game apparatus picks a random number and determines the respective numbers of the balls trapped in the simulated ball trapping members. A monetary award is mechanically dispensed by the apparatus if the random number selected by the player matches the random number generated by the random number generator.
