3bamboo Posted December 7, 2021 #1 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Can anyone confirm whether there is a coin pusher / quarter pusher game in the casino on Celebrity Apex? I've tried to watch casino walkthrough videos on Youtube but I didn't see one. I know it sounds silly but I look forward to spending hours and hours on that game while at sea and if there isn't one then I would reconsider booking Apex. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get it, they're a lot more fun than they should be. It feels like it soothes my (fake) OCD when the "prize" drops. Do other Celebrity ships have them?

OtherFigment Posted December 7, 2021 #6 Share Posted December 7, 2021 I remember seeing one in edge in the last couple months. Could have imagined it though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplsmurf Posted December 7, 2021 #7 Share Posted December 7, 2021 I have never seen one on any Celebrity ship, but I haven’t been on Edge or Alex yet so can’t speak for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
behtyas Posted December 7, 2021 #8 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Unless I completely missed it, there isn't one on Edge so I can't imagine Apex has one either. The only "arcade"/luck based game is the one where you control a key and try to line it up with the keyholes to win prize money. Even that was tucked away by a door next to the ATM (maybe a hint that both will happily take your money in exchange for giving you some back...) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I've watch my DW pour some $$ into these at times. But hey, we have our gambling budget for the cruise and unless I'm winning big at Craps/Blackjack, we don't exceed it. Any money we take into a casino is funds we are willing to expend for the entertainment purposes. If your gambling because you have to win the money, then you need to leave immediately.

I've seen some pretty heavy movement on the ship and too have never seen any coins drop. I've seen the piles jiggle a lit, but never see any 'free' payouts.

Rare mahdnc Posted December 7, 2021 #14 Share Posted December 7, 2021 The two kids and I were standing by one of those machines aboard Eclipse while waiting for my wife. There was a $10 bill that had fallen off the tray (I presume that because we didn't actually see it happen) but it didn't make it all the way down the chute where you could get it. The kids and I were looking at it intently trying to figure out if we could reach in there to retrieve it. All of a sudden a casino employee came over to the coin pusher. He proceeded to open the machine up and he handed us the $10 bill! Of course the $10 doesn't even begin to make up for the money that my wife has poured in there in the past (I still remember Horizon 2005.....).

zitsky Posted December 7, 2021 #15 Share Posted December 7, 2021 I googled this, but I still don't understand how it works. Seems like an easy way to give away all your money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your post brought memories of an Antarctic cruise some years ago. I am one of those who is always up and wandering about with a cuppa by 6am. The quarter pusher machines used to drop quarters in rough seas all night. Thus a walk with a large cup through the casino very very early usually filled one and sometimes 2 coin cups. The total was amazing. We completely filled a drawer by our bed with quarters. Sadly there is now a flap that extends after 30 seconds if no coin is inserted . Quarters drop into the machine. No more morning quarters. 😪 Edited December 8, 2021 by Arizona Wildcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guppy99 Posted December 8, 2021 #22 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Summit always had one or two. Equinox and Millenium too. However, when on Equinox this summer, it was the same principle but it was hanging paper cash. Not sure exactly how it worked, because I never play those.
