Gameplay

After holding down the IN/RETURN lottery, the game picks 5 numbers from 25 balls with the the numbers 1 to 25 written on them, chosen at the front of the cabinet before being sent through an outlet to the central dome-shaped play field. The player wins BINGO when 3 of more squares in a line are called by the "screen card" on the cabinet's satellite panel. The resulting scores determines how many medals the player wins. They can bet more or less medals to influence their advantageous conditions, but these conditions are still determined randomly, so it is possible to win big even with just a few medals.
