Top 37/38

TOP 37/38 is a fully automatic electronic [Class III] game using air blown balls as the random number generator to determine winning outcomes. Top 37/38 game was certified by BMM and is currently installed at several facilities across the world.

The physical configuration consists of a center unit and multiple player stations that are attached to the center unit.

The player experience is set up to replicate the same playing experience for players as traditional table games but the outcome is produced by the display of a single winning numbered ball, selected from an enclosed clear chamber containing 37/38 balls. In operation the Top 37/38 game is similar to many Class II games in that the results are generated by a RNG (using air blown balls) but showing the result in a manner that players find familiar.

A player plays the game by depositing credits at one of the player stations, this can be done using cash, ticket or depending on the casino, by utilising the casino player rewards card. Once a player has deposited sufficient credit onto the player station the player wagering is enabled on the game. The bets offered and the payouts are structured to represent those in traditional games. The display shown on the player station, can be chosen by the player with current options of a racetrack style set up or a more traditional layout.

There are 37/38 numbers available to be picked from the central ball chamber.
The number selected within the central ball chamber is associated with the layout displayed on the player station.

Part of the player experience is a player station that shows the history of the last 20 numbers selected. The game can also be supported in a number of languages both in terms of on screen display and player help screens. The voice over that announces the winning number and player instructions can also be set up in different languages.

It is our observation, the mechanical determination of the result by the air blown balls allows for a high degree of player confidence in the result being truly random than in computer generated outcomes. The speed of the game also allows operators to run more game cycles per hour (XX v. XX of XYZ Game) and players to enjoy a faster paced entertainment experience than many traditional table games.
