<p>Slot machines are popular past time in Finland. They can be found on almost every store and gas station. Probably the most legendary slot machine is called Pajatso (Payazzo).
</p><p>The first Payazzo machines were manufactured in Germany during the early 20th century. In Finland Pajatso was the only gambling arcade game until the 1970’s. The gambling slot machines in Finland are manufactured and supervised by The Finnish Slot Machine Association.
</p><p>Nowadays Pajatsos have become extinct due to lack of interest towards the game. They can still be found in museums and some machines are owned by private collectors. 
</p><p>The idea of the game is to flick a coin into different winning slots using a metal ring on a side of the machine. If the coin hits a winning slot it rewards the player with the amount of many labeled for that certain slot.
In the audio you can hear the bouncing of the coins, winning coins rattling onto the tray and the sound that the mechanical mechanism makes while the game is being played.
