RE: Easy Does It
None of Lagoon's games are fixed. They are designed to be statistically in favor of the Park. That is how they make money on the games. I have an aunt who enjoys playing Easy Does It and she can usually win it.

RE: Easy Does It
I have never had any luck on this game either, but I enjoy playing it. At $0.25 a game, it really isn't that bad to play.

RE: Easy Does It
When I was younger I could win this game. I have not tried to play it much but here is what I remember. Don't just push the ball. Try griping the ball on the sides with both hands and by rotating your hands forward you generate the momentum required to get it over the first hill. I think this is a more even, regulated motion.
Everything about this game is consistency. If you generate a consistent amount of force then it is easier to adjust up and down. Once you find the sweet spot you should be able to win often.

RE: Easy Does It
Yeah this was one of the main games I used to run and by the end of the season I was able to win it about 60% of the time. The best way to tell if the ball is going to stay in the valley is to watch it at the top of the hill, you want it to sit there like its not going to make it over the top but it just barly makes it past the hill.

FALSE!
Also, I used to have great success with this game using the same techniques as stated above that I discovered. I also used to buy an ICEE before playing and used the Condensation on my fingers so they wouldn't stick the the ball in any way.
