Miss Bonus

Miss Bonus, manufactured by Willy Michiels (trade name WIMI Games) of Belgium in January 1997, is a single-player bingo machine using a "magic lines" game type with 25 holes and up to 8 odds steps.

The machine boasts several standout bingo features: advancing odds and scores, a ballyhole, colored lines, diagonal scores, in-line scoring, roll-over buttons, star numbers, and triple-deck advancing odds/scores. It also offers extended/extra time and up to 5 extra balls, with a maximum payout of 750.

One of the backglasses documented for this game shows no visible manufacturer logo, instead picturing a tiara where the logo usually appears, while another reads "Wi-Mi" -- one of the few instances where a hyphen appears in the Willy Michiels name (the only other being on his 'Miss Super Bonus'). Little else is documented about the designer or the game's development, but its rich set of bingo scoring features marks it as a notable entry in Michiels' catalog.
