An arcade game including a progressive bonus apparatus connected to a
plurality of individual game units. The progressive bonus apparatus
receives score contributions from each game unit to increase a
progressive score. When players achieve a predetermined task on a game
unit, they receive a non-monetary award based on the progressive score.
Each game unit connected to the progressive bonus apparatus may take the
form of an arcade-type game with a rotating wheel on which to base
scoring. A playing piece is directed down a playing surface towards a
target end, and the wheel is rotated according to the target that was hit
by the playing piece. The position of the wheel when it stops rotating
affects the score. A non-monetary award based on the score is dispensed
to the player when the game is completed.
