Spinning Luck is a top that enhance the feeling of anticipation relates to luck in game of chance as it spins. It stages the experience of anticipation from start till the end. Spinning luck is designed as a spinning vessel.
When it spins without the sound, player will throw a small metal ball into the top and the ball will create a high pitch sound till it slows down. There will be coloured markings in the top to indicate the emotion of the day, so when the top stops, the metal ball will fall in one of the colour parts.
