THE UNUSUAL NAME QUINTOON IS DERIVED
FROM 'QUIN' MEANING FIVE AND 'TOON'
BEING THE LAST SYLABLE OF PONTOON THE
ENGLISH NAME FOR 21'S.

THIS VERSATILE GAME CAN BE CONFIGURED TO
SUIT ALMOST EVERY COIN-OP OPERATING
SITUATION FROM PURE AMUSEMENT TO HIGH
STAKES GAMING.

QUINTOON IS BASED ON THE GAMEPLAY
PRINCIPLES OF 21'S OR BLACKJACK.

THE KEY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN QUINTOON AND
CONVENTIONAL BLACKJACK IS YOUR ABILITY TO
BUILD 5 INDIVIDUAL HANDS AT THE SAME TIME.

THE OBJECT OF THE GAME IS TO BUILD EACH
HAND UP TO A MAXIMUM OF 21, WHICH MEANS A
MAXIMUM 'FACE VALUE' SCORE 105 CAN BE
ACHIEVED, BY CREATING 5 HANDS OF 21.
10
TENS, JACKS, QUEENS, AND KINGS SCORE 10
POINTS, ACES 1 OR 1, AND ALL OTHER CARDS
SCORE THEIR FACE VALUE.

THE 'FACE VALUE' OF YOUR FIVE HANDS ADDED
TOGETHER IS CONVERTED TO A 'GAME SCORE'
INDICATED ON THE PLAY TABLE.

A MINIMUM OF 98 POINTS IS NEEDED TO
PROGRESS TO THE NEXT ROUND.
9
THUS, IN THE EARLY STAGES OF THE GAME
BUILDING A COMBINED 'FACE VALUE' SCORE OF
98 WILL ONLY ACHIEVE 1 'GAME SCORE' POINT,
WHEREAS YOU PROGRESS THROUGH THE ROUNDS A
98 'FACE VALUE' COULD GIVE YOU ALOT MORE
'GAME SCORE' POINTS.

AS YOU START PLAYING YOU'LL FIND THE
SCORING SYSTEM WILL BECOME SECOND NATURE.

WE'LL BE SURPRISED IF THIS ISN'T ONE OF THE
MOST COMPULSIVE GAMES YOU HAVE EVER PLAYED!
