In Part 1 of this announcement, I will cover about half of the machines to keep the length down of the post down. The rest of Larry's arcades machines will be in Larry's Arcade Machines Part 2.
Larry's Arcade
I am happy to say Larry's Virtual Arcade is filling up nicely and now has a total of thirteen ticket redemption machines. Larry's is the first arcade available to play on Islandville Island. The arcade never closes and has a soda machine to keep you hydrated if you are playing survival mode. Arcade machines can be played when your player card is inserted and you have enough money on the card. After playing a machine, your tickets will be in your left hand and will be considered "Uncounted tickets". All of the tickets that you win will have to be "counted" in the ticket shredder next to the Prize redemption area. Once you have "shredded and counted" your tickets you will see them in your watch values and no longer in your left hand. Now they are available to spend on items and counted in the game as "Counted Tickets".

You can then purchase any of the available prizes from the prize kiosk in the arcade. It features a cool hologram display of the prize and to purchase just click and hold for one second on the prize of your choice. If you have enough tickets the item will materialize on the prize counter to your right. You can then play with it for hours and hours or just add it to your inventory (Backpack has 12 spots) and then go back to winning more tickets.
STACKEM UP

Introducing Stackem Up, a highly addictive skill based arcade game loved by many. The goal of the game is to align rows of moving blocks on top of each other. A player who can stack all rows to the minor prize will be awarded with a 250 Ticket bundle. Or let it ride and go for the Major prize. A new set of them fancy headphones everybody is walking around with.
PRIZE MASTER
Here is a quick preview of the "Prize Master" new arcade game.

The Prize Master is hugely popular arcade game that awards prizes to those who can fit the key into a lock using a mechanical arm. The prize amount increases the according to the rows of the gameboard. The lower rows of prizes are the easiest to unlock and the top row prizes are big money but much harder to unlock. As the arm increases in height it also increases in speed... so get your timing down and this game can payout some good money and tickets. It is the most expensive game at $5.00 per play (4 plays) in the arcade but also has the largest payouts of all of them.
DIZZY BIRD
Here is a quick preview of the "Dizzy Bird" new arcade game.

Dizzy Bird is a skill based ticket redemption game that is fun for all levels of skill. If your ball stops on the green light you win 500 Tickets plus a bonus spin, If you land in the red lights you get a 100 tickets and a bonus spin. The second spin is for 2500 Bonus tickets. You just have to hit the green lit and it's all yours.
SPEED DROP
Here is a quick preview of the "Speed Drop" new arcade game.

Speed Drop is an addictive fast-paced arcade game fairly new to the arcade scene. The idea is to drop all of the balls into moving buckets in a timed session. All you have to do is get that timing down and the 1000 tickets are yours. It sounds easy... but it is not. One of my favorite games in the arcade and I play it often while I am working. haha. Which is probably the reason I am writing in 2019 instead of 2018. ;)
CLAW MADNESS
Here is a quick preview of the "Claw Madness" arcade game.
https://youtu.be/h6h6aW_p0kU
Claw Madness is a classic claw crane machine full of tickets for your scooping. Claw machines have been a staple in the arcade scene for years. I mean who doesn't love a claw machine? Once you get the the action down on the Claw Madness it offers a great chance at big ticket wins. After the game is complete (four credits per play) you can find your prizes in the prize bin. Pick them up and head over to the ticket eater to count your winnings and then blow them on some useless carnie mirrors that you just going to sell in a few years at a garage sale. haha
SKEE BALL
Here is a quick preview of the "Skee Ball" new arcade game.
https://youtu.be/hDAJ6Z85kXQ
Skee Ball the REAL arcade classic! Skee Ball is one of the first redemption games ever made. It was invented in 1908 by Joseph Fourestier Simpson. It is played by rolling a wooden ball up an inclined lane that directs the balls into a bullseye ring. The player gets 8 balls each play. The Max score you can receive is 800. You will never get it but it's possible. haha. Like most arcade you will get paid .5 tickets per point. So half.
All of the machines are still being tweaked on their winning values to make them balanced and fair. We will be making changes throughout the early access program.
the rest of the machines are covered in Larry's Arcade Machines Part 2.
