Overview
Pachinko slot, shorten as pachislot (パチスロ, pachisuro), is an acronym for two types of machines: pachinko and slot machines.
The biggest difference from slot machines in casinos is that they have the ability to stop the reels by themselves. Also, the size of the casino cabinet is such that they can be installed in the same space as pachinko machines.
However, the most famous offshore slot machine, which is unique in Okinawa Prefecture, is characterized by the fact that the medals are about one size larger than usual.
How to play
Insert medals into the medal slot and turn the lever to spin the reels. Pressing the three buttons next to the lever stops the reels (basically, the buttons should be stopped from the left). When a pattern is aligned, medals are paid out according to the pattern.
Currently, the reels are equipped with LCDs and other devices that allow players to enjoy a wide variety of effects.
