Stacker arcade game

Stacker is a game merchandiser created by LAI Games in 2004, where players stack rows of moving blocks on an LED display. The goal is to align these blocks vertically; stacking 11 rows earns a minor prize, while reaching the top row wins a major prize, which can include high-value items like consoles, phones, or gift cards.

The game's difficulty varies by model, with the regular Stacker having a win ratio of approximately 1 in 800 and the Mega Stacker variant at 1 in 1500. The game claims to be entirely skill-based but is designed to be challenging, with small windows for success that make winning difficult.

Several variants have been developed to appeal to different audiences and environments:

The game uses large, visually appealing cabinets to attract players, often featuring high-value prizes that are difficult or desirable to obtain. The recommended major prize value is about 200 times the price per play.

In Europe, funworld AG distributes Stacker across 14 countries, including Germany, France, and the UK.
