Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9701158A1] A slot machine has a playing device (1) with symbols whose rotary bodies (5) bear symbols (6) on partial fields and show a game result through display windows (4) when they come to a stop. The slot machine may also have at least one extra-winnings playing device (16) made up of several individual winnings display elements (17) that can be lighted up. The extra-winnings playing device (16) allows the player to bet on his winnings in the playing device (1) with symbols. A computerised control unit controls the evolution of the game. In order to make the game more attractive, at least one of the rotary bodies (5) of the playing device (1) with symbols and/or a separate rotary body (5a) is provided with at least one visible channel (20) for receiving coins (22) that extends radially outwards from the axis of rotation (21) of the rotary body. The coins are paid out through a dispensing device (8) when a certain result is achieved in the playing device (1) with symbols and/or in the extra-winnings playing device (16).
