えられる。As described above, the prize acquisition game apparatus according to the present embodiment, when the prize is placed on the shovel 12, the vibration mechanism 30 is used.
Does not vibrate the prize acquisition means 10, so that almost any desired prize can be selected. And shovel 12
When the prize placed on the game is brought close to the acquisition port 5, the vibrating mechanism vibrates, and the player takes advantage of various operation techniques to collect the prize. In particular, by forming the protrusion 15 on the scooping surface of the shovel 12, when the shovel 12 on which the prize is placed vibrates, the position at which the prize bounces is displaced by the protrusion 15, and the player is Since the deviation of the prizes is calculated and the shovel 12 is operated, the skill of the player can be greatly exerted. In addition, since the game time is limited, the player also has to fight with the time, which gives the game an appropriate sense of tension.

くなっている。According to the first aspect of the invention, the prize acquisition means is operated by the player to include a prize acquisition member for acquiring a prize, and the prize acquisition member is guided from the accommodation section to the prize acquisition port. Since a vibrating mechanism that vibrates the prize acquisition means is provided in any section between them, it is easy to acquire a prize, but it is difficult to lead the prize acquisition mouth to the prize acquisition game. It is possible to provide games with different tastes. That is, although it is difficult to grab a prize in the conventional prize acquisition game, it is possible to roughly acquire the prize once, whereas the present invention makes it difficult after the prize is acquired.
