Penalty 2

Penalty 2 is an intriguing example of a solid-state electronic bingo-style machine from an unidentified manufacturer. Though its year of manufacture and designer remain unknown, the game is classified as a Bingo Machine — a genre built around card-based, multi-hole scoring — featuring 25 trap holes and six scoring cards for the player to complete.

The heavy use of trap holes and multiple cards suggests gameplay centered on lining up combinations across the six cards, a hallmark of the bingo pinball genre rather than traditional flipper-based scoring. Its solid-state electronics distinguish it from the more common electro-mechanical bingo machines, though without further documentation the specific rules and payout logic can't be confirmed.

Due to the lack of available information on Penalty 2 — including its manufacturer, date, and theme — much about its place in pinball history remains speculative. Its rarity and unusual profile as an unidentified solid-state bingo machine make it a curiosity for collectors and researchers of this obscure corner of the hobby.
