This will guide you in building your own Plinko game, whether it be the same size, smaller or larger. My PLINKO specifications are listed below. I like both.ĭisc ordering source :, Houston, Tx – 83 … 1/16” to 3/8“ thick and up to 12” diameter in colors Thickness of the discs somewhat determines their bounce ability against the pegs … I used both ⅛” and ¼” … the thinner the bouncier, the thicker the more directed bouncing. My selected discs were 2+ ½ “ in diameter, which determined my board size of 32” wide by 62” tall.

The size of a Plinko game is dictated by the diameter of your discs. You can set your own values or prizes for your own game, even change them as often as you like. The goal is to score as high as you can with the number of discs you use, which is up to your own personal game rules.īy choosing what you think is the correct slot to begin guiding your disc to the desired value or prize is the fun. This Plinko game has values 1-2-3-4-5-4-3-2-1 in 9 segregated channels at the bottom of the board. Each time the disc encounters a peg, it will either bounce left or right.

The player chooses one of the slots (8 on this board) in the top of the board, lays the disc flat against the board and drops the disc into it, and watches as the disc bounces down the board in a maze of pegs. Plinko is a game of chance played with discs (referred to as ‘chips’) on a nearly vertical board, slightly angled to allow discs to stay on board, populated with offset rows of pegs.
