new (?) swp cabinet

Post by Istenem »

can anyone shed any light on this?
i was doing a talk in totteridge recently and went for a pint in the bull & butcher which has a kind of faux amusement arcade/pool hall at the back.
amongst pinball, shoot-'em-ups and tuppenny waterfalls there is a paragon and a gamesnet but also a strange payout terminal which looks like a similar cabinet to the old photoplay jokers.

it is definitely a paying SWP not a tournament thingie. i only played two games: one on a hex clone with puzzles/qs/skill challenges and the other a game punning on squid which is basically caveman crapers. they look eminently learnable, i had two questions repeated in less than 10 minutes. but not really worth it if there is only one of these terminals in the wild.
nobody ever wins on those things.
