Tahiti

The ability to increase the scores on Tropics must not have gone over too well, as United removed it from this game and replaced it with a couple little 2x2 supercards.

The also made the extra balls have 5 teaser lights per ball, so if you lit one light be coin/credit, it would cost you at least 15 coins to get all three extra balls. The made the cash box larger in this game ;-)

one-card games

The game has one main card, usually a 5x5 grid of numbers.

Usually, at least three numbers next to each other on either a horizontal, vertical, or the main 5 number diagonals are required to win.

There were, however, a few variations that occured over the years. The dimensions of the card, 2-in-line winners, and winning on the other diagonal combinations were all features that were used.

Another common feature was corners scoring.
