About This Machine
The Twin Joker is a vintage electro-mechanical bingo-style pinball machine from Bally Manufacturing Corporation, built for novelty play with a Playing Cards theme. Bally produced 1,000 confirmed units of the two-player game.
The playfield features 25 holes and no replay meter, meaning players could not accumulate free replays the way many bingo machines of the era allowed — requiring more careful, deliberate play to maximize their score.
The Playing Cards theme is straightforward and easy to follow, in keeping with the norms of Bally's bingo-style machines of the period. As with many games from this era, the designer's name is not recorded, a common gap for machines of this type.
