Shed not for her
the bitter tear
Nor give the heart
to vain regret
Tis but the casket
that lies here,
The gem that filled it

Not bad but the Bonus round is pretty lame.

My wife says this is less intimidating than real Roulette.
Plus i assume a martingale or tracking numbers could be very profitable.

Note that the drawn number is predetermined, and the pinball "simulation" is just an animation. And no, tracking numbers or a martingale will not work.

That's not pinball!
THIS is pinball!

I saw this at G2E. I was unimpressed. When you pull the plunger, the ball follows a track behind the wheel and wraps around. It doesn't enter the wheel until after running 3/4 around. I.E. It enters at a point close to the player, where the player can't see it enter. As such, it's a complete mystery with no real visual association between pulling the plunger and seeing the ball spin.
Also, there's way too much glare on that glass because it's flat, and no anti-glare treatment.

Superstitions are silly, childish, irrational rituals, born out of fear of the unknown. But how much does it cost to knock on wood? 😁

Can the player operate the flippers. Is there a TILT feature ?

The wheel constantly turns, so you can try time the release, but that's all. No flippers. Just a plunger.
Don't know about a tilt. Unlike a regular pinball machine, with it's spindly front legs, this unit sits on a very sturdy cabinet.

I'll bet there is if security sees you trying to mess with the game.

I used to back a guy named Calvin Hood. He would put legs of pinball machine on tips of his steel toe shoes. LOL
Never backed the guys who would drill a hole in side of machine and run a coat hanger to lite up winning numbers.
There's cheating and then there's really cheating.
Sorta like counting versus marking cards. Only the latter is really cheating.
