A. Electronic bonanza-style bingo games authorized by this act¹ shall only be conducted using a system which utilizes linked player terminals which allow players to purchase and play electronic bonanza-style bingo cards. Players compete, following the payment of a fee, to be the first player to cover a previously designated bingo pattern using a set of numbers or symbols at least some of which were drawn or electronically determined before the sale of bingo cards began. The first player to cover the game-winning pattern wins the game-winning prize. Interim and consolation prizes also may be awarded.

B. A player may purchase an opportunity to play an electronic bonanza-style bingo game at a player terminal, either through the insertion of coins or currency, cash voucher, or through the use of a cashless transaction system. The available games are displayed on the player terminal's video screen or otherwise prominently displayed on the terminal. The rules of the game are also displayed either prominently on the terminal or a help screen.

C. After the player purchases a bingo card, the player terminal must cover any numbers on the player's bingo card that match numbers previously drawn or electronically determined for that game.

D. Although the results of the bingo game may be shown using entertaining video and/or mechanical displays, the player may have the option to view the electronic bingo card and current ball draw on the video screen of the player terminal.

E. Following play on a player terminal, the result shall be displayed and prizes awarded. Prizes may be dispensed in the form of cash, coin, cash voucher, merchandise or through a cashless transaction system.
