Payazzo
Payazzo (or pajatso) is a traditional Finnish gambling arcade game, dating back to the 1920s, when it was introduced into Finland from Germany. The object of payazzo is to flick a coin into one of the winning slots. When the attempt is successful, the machine rewards the player with a couple of coins. If the attempt is unsuccessful, the player loses the flicked coin.

The game is called ''pajatso'' in Finnish. It is a fennicized form of ''bajazzo'', the name of the early German models. ''Bajazzo'' means an Italian-style clown (''pagliaccio'' in Italian). Finland’s Slot Machine Association, or Raha-automaattiyhdistys (RAY), the manufacturer of today's payazzo machines, uses the word ''payazzo'' as the English-language word for ''pajatso''.
In Finland the game is often referred informally as ''Jasso''. The popularity of the nickname was proven as the manufacturer decided to use only the informal form in the names of some models of payazzo combining coin flicking with an electronic game of luck. These models are ''Hedelmäjazzo'' (''Fruit Jazzo'') from the early nineties and ''Komeetta Jasso'' (''The Comet-Jasso''), which is used today. The manufacturer also bought the Finnish domain www.jasso.fi to redirect traffic to their site.
