Place your chips, pull the lever, and watch hundreds of beans cascade through the pegs of a bean-machine, building a bell curve before your eyes.

How to play
Before each wave you stake chips on the outcome bins of a Galton board (a peg field where beans bounce left or right). Drop the wave and the beans pile up into a histogram that approximates a bell curve. A bet wins if its bin is among the three fullest of the wave. Center bins pay small but often; tail bins pay big but rarely. Survive the waves with chips in the bank.
Each wave gives you a fixed pool of chips to place.
Payout multipliers are shown on each bin, tails pay the most.
Run your bank to zero and you bust out.
Controls
Desktop: left-click a bin to add a chip, right-click to remove one, then click Drop.
Phone & tablet: tap a bin to add chips and use Clear bets to reset, then tap Drop.
Game modes
Board sizes of 8, 12 or 16 rows, each in Daily (shared) or Practice (random).
Tips & strategy
The center bins fill most often, so spread the bulk of chips near the middle.
Sprinkle a few chips on a tail bin for an occasional high-multiplier payday.
