Plinko

A Plinko-style game where customers drop balls down a pegged board into winning or losing buckets.

What Is It?

A Plinko-style reveal game. Customers drop a ball from the top of a pegged board and watch it bounce its way down into one of the buckets along the bottom. A ball that settles in a winning bucket reveals a prize, while a ball in a losing bucket shows "Better luck next time".

In the Game Type dropdown, Plinko appears as Plinko (New).

How It Works

  1. After purchasing tickets, the customer sees the Plinko board with one ball ready for each ticket they hold.

  2. They press Drop Ball to release a ball. It bounces down through the pegs and settles into a bucket at the bottom.

  3. If that ticket is a winner, the ball lands in a winning bucket and the prize is revealed with its name and image. If not, it lands in a losing bucket.

  4. A progress bar tracks how many balls have been dropped out of the total.

  5. To speed things up, the customer can press Drop All to release every remaining ball at once. Pressing it again adds a boost (2x, then 3x) so the balls fall faster.

  6. Wins are collected in a Wins panel as they happen.

  7. Once every ball has landed, a summary appears showing how many prizes were won, or "Better luck next time" if there were none.

Customisation Options

Plinko has its own settings that appear once you choose it as your game type. You will find them in the Plinko Settings section on the competition's edit page.

Board Colours

Four colour pickers let you match the board to your branding. Each keeps a sensible default if you leave it alone.

  • Board Background Colour. The colour behind the board. Default dark (#0a0a0a).

  • Peg Colour. The colour of the pegs the balls bounce off. Default white (#ffffff).

  • Winning Bucket Colour. The colour of the buckets that reveal a prize. Default green (#22c55e).

  • Losing Bucket Colour. The colour of the no-win buckets. Default red (#ef4444).

Custom Sounds

  • Custom Drop Sound. Played each time a ball is dropped. Upload an MP3 file (max 200KB). Optional.

  • Custom Win Sound. Played when a winning ball lands. Upload an MP3 file (max 200KB). If you do not upload one, the default success sound is used.

Background Image

Upload your own image to sit behind the board instead of a plain colour.

  • Format: PNG, JPEG, or WebP.

  • Max file size: 872KB.

If you add a background image, pick board and peg colours that still stand out against it, so the pegs and buckets stay easy to see.

A Quick Tip

Add a featured image to each instant win prize. When a winning ball lands, that image is shown alongside the prize name, which makes the reveal far more exciting. See Add Instant Wins for how to set this up.
