The Twist

The Twist is a single-player electro-mechanical bingo machine from Bally Manufacturing Corporation. It was pictured in Cash Box magazine in August 1963 alongside other games identified as having been produced between July 1962 and June 1963.

The Twist is built around a "Magic Cards" mechanic, featuring 11 position cards numbered 1 through 11 that come into play during the game, adding a layer of strategy typical of Bally's bingo-style machines of the era.

Beyond its Magic Cards feature and general bingo-machine format, little else is documented about The Twist, leaving some aspects of its design and marketing history unclear.
