Computer Vegas: The Electronic Crap-Shooting Game Board Game | BoardGames.com | Your source for everything to do with Board Games

Description

Part of a series of electronic board games released by EDC in the late sixties and early seventies. Although titled Computer Vegas, the large wooden game board only depicts a Craps table. Protruding through the center of board are fourteen light bulbs that serve to display the pips for a computer-generated roll of a pair of standard six-sided dice. The dice are rolled by pressing a button. All other gameplay is handled manually by the players. The game includes small plastic chips and paper money for use in betting and collecting payouts.

As Computer Vegas was simply a die-roll simulator at heart, it could also be used to play Backgammon. The EDC overlay for Computer Backgammon turned the Craps table into a Backgammon board. A cut-out in the center of the overlay allowed the virtual die roll to be displayed.

Unlike most other EDC games, Computer Vegas ran off an AC adapter rather than batteries.
