(Dallas, TX, 9 November 2010)
– LAI Games is set to unveil new games in their booth #403 at the IAAPA Expo this month. New prize
vending games include Stack ‘N’ Grab and Catch ‘N’ Grab crane-style merchandisers and Mega Stacker. Additionally,
LAI will debut a new children’s video driving game, Willie Wheels, and new features that have been added to the
popular Snapshot photo booth.
About Stack ‘N’ Grab and Catch ‘N’ Grab
Stack ‘N’ Grab is a prize merchandising game that gives players two experiences in one. First, the player attempts
to win a shortened version of LAI’s award-winning Stacker game. If successful, they can then select the prize of
their choice with a special 4-pronged crane claw that guarantees prize delivery.
Because the crane portion of the game is dependent on winning the Stacker portion, operators have improved control
over the game’s payout compared to traditional cranes. The game is shipped with interchangeable claws for 4”-8” and
8”-14” toys and has operator adjustable settings. 3D artwork on the cabinet attracts attention, with the help of
lighting and sound effects.
A similar game with the same cabinet style will also be shown, called Catch ‘N’ Grab. Catch ‘N’ Grab uses the same
crane prize delivery mechanism as Stack ‘N’ Grab, but the game play is different. Instead of Stacker, the player will
have to win a game of Drop Zone, another new game from LAI. With an LED playfield, Drop Zone players attempt to catch
a stack of blocks between two stacks of “catcher” blocks, much like the children’s game of dropping a ruler between
your hands. If players are successful at catching the blocks to the Win level, they get to select their prize with the
crane claw.
About Mega Stacker
Mega Stacker is the huge new addition to the successful Stacker family of products. At nearly 10’ tall, Mega Stacker is
intended as a signature piece for large game rooms. The game works just like Stacker, where players attempt to stack moving
rows of blocks to the Minor and Major prize levels to win. Major prizes are housed in 5 spacious window compartments, and
minor prizes are tickets. Dynamic cabinet lighting, a pulse-pounding sound system and rotating beacon lights help to attract
a crowd.
About Willie Wheels
Willie Wheels is a children’s video driving game that gives kids a license to drive. After completing one of nine driving
courses of varying difficulty with the help of cartoon friends, this game vends a credit-card size plastic “driver’s license”
card in one of 24 collectible designs. One thousand cards ship with each game. Features include a 32” video screen, attractive
car-shaped cabinet with realistic steering wheel and horn, and an “auto-move” mode to help younger players navigate the track.
The game was created for the often overlooked 3 to 7 year old age group.
About the Snapshot Update
LAI Games has added new features to the Snapshot photo booth, inside and out. The game now includes a floor with a stainless
steel seating bar and a more private curtain. In addition, the game has an operator-selectable email feature that allows guests
to share their photos via email, Facebook and Twitter.
