- A [[gameplay-feature:bank-drop-targets]] configuration with five [[gameplay-feature:drop-targets]] in a row. The five-target bank was ideal for spelling five-letter words or representing poker hands, giving designers a longer completion challenge. IPDB catalogs approximately 245 machines with this arrangement — nearly as common as the four-bank — with prominent examples including *[[title:flash]]* (1978), *[[title:playboy]]* (1978), and *[[title:captain-fantastic-and-the-brown-dirt-cowboy]]* (1976). The wider bank demanded more playfield real estate but rewarded players with proportionally larger bonuses for completing the full sequence.
