Ticket arcade games: which type?

Each type plays differently and needs a different amount of space.

Alley bowlers are based on Skee-Ball: players roll balls up a lane towards the scoring targets. We have the WIK Och! Rolly, the WIK Alley Bowler Black and the WIK Roll'N'Jump, which is based on Speed-Ball. All three come with five balls and can be linked for multiplayer play.

Ball-throwing games have mechanical targets to knock down. The WIK Hit The Ghost has hand-made ghosts, and the WIK Squid Battle has a hand-made squid. They play the same way with a different theme.

Fishing games are video games for groups. The Open Sea Fishing is a low table-style cabinet for six players, and the Crossbow Fishing gives up to four players a mounted crossbow each.

Whack-a-mole: the WIK Ghost is a compact hammer game that WIK makes 100% waterproof for outdoor use.

Ticket arcade machine sizes: will it fit?

Most of these games need a long run of floor. The alley bowlers and ball-throwing games are all just over 3m long, and the Squid Battle and Hit The Ghost (with its top extension) are around 2.6m tall or more. Leave room at the player's end too.

If space is tight, the WIK Ghost is only 56 × 80cm and 130cm tall, and the Open Sea Fishing is just 89cm tall, so it doesn't block sightlines across your floor. Packed sizes are listed on each product page. The Alley Bowler Black arrives in two packages and the Crossbow Fishing in three parts. If anything is close, send us your measurements before you order.

Ticket arcade machine payment and running costs

The WIK games come with a COMESTERO RM5 electronic coin acceptor fitted, with a banknote acceptor or card reader available as options. WIK rates its alley bowlers at 105W in demo mode and 180W during a game, and the Ghost at 18W and 130W. The Ace Amusement fishing games use more power: 550W for Open Sea Fishing and up to 1500W for Crossbow Fishing. Their payment details aren't published yet, so ask us before you order.

Running a redemption counter

Ticket games work best together. Players win tickets on several machines and swap their total for prizes at a counter, which gives them a reason to stay and play more. WIK designed its ball-throwing games to sit alongside its alley bowlers, and linked alley bowlers let groups play side by side. Our shooting arcade machines include more ticket games, such as Splash Fight, Wild Things and Wild West Shootout 2. If you don't plan to run a counter, our basketball arcade machines are a better fit.

Ticket prizes and the rules

Because these games lead to prizes, how they're set up matters. The Gambling Commission's guidance on prize machines (last updated 31 October 2024) explains that a prize machine can count as a gaming machine if chance plays an appreciable part in the result. Speak to your local licensing authority before you install prize games in a venue.

Ticket arcade machine delivery and warranty

Delivery terms are shown on each product page. The WIK games list a 12-month warranty, and the Ghost lists 24 months for home use and 12 months for business use. Warranty details for the Ace Amusement machines aren't published yet, so ask us and we'll confirm before you order.

Ticket and prize game FAQs

What's the difference between an alley bowler and Skee-Ball?

Skee-Ball is the original game. An alley bowler works the same way: roll the balls up the lane and score by landing them in the targets. The Och! Rolly and Alley Bowler Black are based on Skee-Ball, and the Roll'N'Jump is based on Speed-Ball.
