Payout Dice Games are like slot machines. The player bets a coin, the machine rolls the dice, and pays money if the player wins. The dicers, as they are also called, play a complete game of craps. I am fascinated with the mechanics necessary to play a game of dice, all include in a mechanism.

I am interested in buying one of these games or major part. Please contact me if you have parts to a dice game for sale or know someone that does. A finders fee will happily be paid for information leading to the purchase. Call Michael at 408-773-1170 or see the contact information

		Mysterious Eye		The game senses the roll of the dice by measuring the height of the dice which is slightly different on the three sides and indicating the result with electricity. The game was completed quickly based on rumors of the Bally development.

Much of the information and pictures about the dice games are from Richard M. Bueschel, Payout Dice Machines, Coin-Op Classics, 1994. Photographs retain their credits.
