Air assisted roll down game

An arcade game comprising:

• an elevated alley, said alley having a first planar section to receive rolling game elements, and a second alley section comprising targets, wherein said second alley section is substantially level,
• wherein when a rolling element is introduced to said game it may roll from said first alley section to said second alley section, and
• said targets further comprising passages through said second alley section that are sized to allow said rolling elements to pass through said passages, and each said target further comprising a sensor configured to detect when a rolling element passes through said passage, and
• a device to compress gas and a compressed gas reservoir, and
• a passage from said compressed gas reservoir to at least one compressed gas release valve, and a nozzle, said nozzle located in proximity to said second alley section and positioned to release compressed gas so as to affect rolling elements on said second alley section, and
• a compressed gas control switch for controlling the release of compressed gas through said compressed gas release valve,
• said arcade game further comprising a credit detector,
• a credit switch,
• a central controller and
• a display,
• wherein in response to the detection of a predetermined credit, said controller will activate said credit switch, and upon activation of said credit switch said central controller activates said compressed gas control switch, receives input from said target sensors and provides an output to said compressed air release valve and said display, and
• wherein said display provides information from said target sensors.
