Description
The 1620 Simulation of a One-Armed Bandit is exactly what it says. The player can spin the wheels by pressing the start key and the computer will show the results of each of three wheels. There are 6 characters which will be chosen randomly depending on predetermined odds. The player receives a pay-off based on the results which are printed by the computer. The player can choose between fifteen different amounts to bet, from five to ninety cents. A player can end his play at any time which enables a new player to start. The machine keeps track of the total winnings and losses of the entire day.
