Gay Time
The follow-on game to Gayety, add an extra magic line, and add colored lines to the bingo card as a score booster, and you have Gay Time.The vertical and horizontal lines on the bingo card are colored either red or yellow. 3-in-line scores 4-in-line on the color that has the feature enabled. 4-in-line scores 4-in-line still, so don't bother to overachieve.
magic lines games
The first feature that mechanically moved numbers!The numbers on the bingo card were on strips that could be moved one position by turning knobs/pushing buttons on the foot rail.
Usually, the numbered strips were the vertical columns of the card, and they could be shifted up/down one position. When a column was shifted up, the top number "wrapped" and became the bottom number. The bottom number wrapped to the top when shifting down.
The third type of magic line is the cleverest. It is
a horizontal line consisting of four numbers. The numbers
would shift right through all four positions. When
a number fell off the right side, it reappeared on the left.
For example, here is the four possible magic line positions
on Cypress Gardens:
