PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
 
This summary highlights certain information found in greater detail elsewhere in this prospectus. This summary may not contain all of the information that may be important to you. We urge you to read this entire prospectus carefully, including the risks of investing in our common stock discussed under “Risk Factors” and the financial statements and other information that is incorporated by reference into this prospectus, before making an investment decision. In addition, this prospectus summarizes other documents which we urge you to read. All references in this prospectus to “Spectre,” the “Company,”“we,”“us” and “our” refer to Spectre Gaming, Inc.

Our Company

Spectre Gaming, Inc. (the “Company” or “Spectre,” “we,” “us” or “ours”) (formerly OneLink, Inc.) was incorporated in Minnesota in June 1990 under the name MarketLink, Inc. At that time, the Company provided telecommunications-based business-intelligence services to client end users. In January 1997, the Company changed its name to OneLink Communications, Inc., and later in June 2000, changed its name to OneLink, Inc. In July 2002, the Company ceased operating its telecommunications-based business, and in December 2002 sold substantially all of its assets. In September 2003, the Company adopted a new business plan focused on providing interactive electronic games to the Native American and charitable gaming markets, and in January 2004 changed its name to Spectre Gaming, Inc. Initially, Spectre focused on designing, developing and marketing networks, software and content to provide a comprehensive gaming system to the Class II and Class III markets.

In May 2005, the Company acquired the exclusive license to a proprietary technology for the development and deployment of casino-style redemption or amusement-with-prize (“AWP”) games. AWP games are distinguishable from casino games in that players can win prizes or credits redeemable for prizes as opposed to cash. The Company has begun the development of AWP games and plans to distribute the games to operators at various retail, commercial and entertainment venues in the United States which allow for such devices. The Company has decided to focus its efforts in this market and discontinued its efforts in the Class II and Class III markets. In accordance with appropriate accounting rules, we have reclassified our previously reported financial results to exclude the results of our Class II and Class III business and these results are presented on a historical basis as a separate line in our statements of operations and balance sheets entitled “Discontinued Operations.” Our continuing operations represent our AWP business only. Most references to financial information and description of business in this Form 10-KSB have been revised to reflect only our continuing operations and most references to our now discontinued Class II and Class III business have been eliminated.

Our principal executive office is located at 14200 23rd Avenue N., Minneapolis, MN 55447. Our telephone number at that office is (763) 553-7601. Our internet website is www.spectregaming.com.

Markets

The Company has identified four specific aspects of this market, or submarkets, to focus on: countertop and touchscreen machines, redemption and novelty, eight-liner/video poker, and other aspects that we believe are untapped.

Countertops/Touchscreens— The countertop/slant-top game submarket flourishes in bars, lounges and truck stops across America. This submarket is primarily serviced by amusement operators that distribute juke boxes, pool tables, electronic dart boards and other amusement devices. This submarket is composed of stand-alone games containing what we believe to be antiquated technology. For example, these games do not operate under a client/server model, have no downloadable capabilities, and require a board swap or EPROM (Erasable, Programmable, Read Only Memory) changes and new graphics on the class or cabinet to change games and play. We believe that once successfully developed, the Spectre system will facilitate the changing of games once they have met their normal “shelf life,” and at a fraction of the current cost.

1

Redemption/Novelty—These devices are at street locations, including theaters, restaurants and adult entertainment centers (e.g., Dave and Busters, Game Works). This submarket is primarily serviced by the same amusement operators that currently dominate the countertop/slant-top marketplace.

Eight Liner/Video Poker— The Eight Liner/Video poker segment is the fastest growing electronic amusement submarket in the United States. This market has historically been served by the amusement industry with very little connection to legitimate gaming device manufacturers. Suppliers within this segment are commonly known as “Grey Area” manufacturers and are typically “mom and pop” final assemblers having less than $10 million in annual revenue. Many of these devices are believed to be operating in various manners that do not comply with applicable laws and regulations and may therefore be subject to seizures and forfeitures by state and local authorities.

Untapped Markets— This marketplace consists of jurisdictions and locations within the United States where no form of gaming devices (i.e., Class II/Class III) are currently permitted. These locations include race tracks, strip malls, bingo halls, VFW halls, Jewish War Vets, Disabled American Vet facilities and various Native American tribes that have no federal status. We estimate that there are currently several hundred thousand devices in these locations.


An investment in shares of our common stock involves a high degree of risk.

March 2004 Private Placement. In March 2004, the Company completed a private-placement offering of common stock pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (referred to in this prospectus as the “March 2004 Private Placement”). In the March 2004 Private Placement, the Company offered up to a maximum of 1,866,000 shares of common stock pursuant to Section 4(2) and Rule 506 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. The Company used funds raised in the March 2004 Private Placement for the development and manufacture of gaming machines, and the acquisition of technology for such activities. In total, the Company issued and sold 1,796,829 shares of common stock in the March 2004 Private Placement, raising an aggregate of $1.348 million in gross proceeds. In connection with the March 2004 Private Placement, the Company engaged Feltl and Company to serve as a non-exclusive placement agent on a reasonable-efforts basis, and pursuant to such engagement granted Feltl and Company a five-year warrant to purchase an aggregate of 83,400 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $0.75 and paid Feltl and Company $62,550 in cash for commissions.

Shares of common stock issued in the March 2004 Private Placement were not registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or the availability of an applicable exemption therefrom. Nevertheless, the Company granted subscribers in the March 2004 Private Placement piggyback registration rights, in the event the Company prepared and filed a registration statement, covering the resale of shares of common stock issued in the offering within the two-year period immediately following the closing relating to their particular investment. The registration statement of which this prospectus is a part currently covers 1,648,496 shares of common stock issued in the March 2004 Private Placement, and all 83,400 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrant issued to Feltl and Company in connection therewith.

Debt Financings. On May 20, 2004, the Company received a $1,100,000 loan from Pandora Select Partners L.P. (“Pandora”) in exchange for a convertible promissory note (accruing interest at ten percent per annum) payable in interest only through August 20, 2004, and thereafter payable in equal monthly installments over the next 15 months. Pandora was permitted to convert the promissory note into shares of our common stock at $2.50 per share. Subject to certain conditions and limitations, the Company was permitted to make monthly installment payments of note interest and principal, in lieu of cash, through the issuance of common stock at a per-share price equal to 90% of the average closing bid price of the common stock over the 30 trading days immediately preceding the payment date. In connection with this financing, the Company issued Pandora a five-year warrant for the purchase of 200,000 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $2.50 per share, and granted Pandora a security interest in the Company’s assets. Also in connection with this financing, the Company paid a 3% cash origination fee to affiliates of Pandora, and compensated a finder with $50,000 cash, a five-year warrants for the purchase of 50,000 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $2.50 per share, and a five-year warrant for the purchase of 50,000 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $3.00 per share.

As part of the May 20, 2004 financing, the Company agreed to prepare and file a registration statement covering the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory note and exercise of the warrants issued to Pandora on or prior to November 3, 2004, and to use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective on or prior to February 1, 2005. Subsequently, the Company entered into a letter agreement with Pandora (and Whitebox Intermarket Partners, L.P., as described below) pursuant to which the deadline for filing this registration statement was delayed until
 
3

 
November 30, 2004, and the deadline for effectiveness was commensurately delayed until February 28, 2005. This prospectus is a part of the registration statement which the Company was obligated to prepare and file with the Commission under the terms of the investment agreements involved in the May 20, 2004 convertible-debt financing with Pandora, and it currently covers all 163,356 shares of our common stock issued to Pandora upon conversion of principal and interest payments due under the promissory note, and all 200,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon Pandora’s exercise of the warrant issued in connection therewith. In October 2005, the Company satisfied its obligations under the promissory note in full by converting $200,000 of the balance into shares of our Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock, and a cash payment for the remaining balance. In total, 163,356 shares of common stock were issued to Pandora in connection with payments under the note.

On September 10, 2004, the Company received $1,500,000 from Pandora and Whitebox Intermarket Partners, L.P. (“Whitebox”) in exchange for two promissory notes (accruing interest at ten percent per annum) secured by the Company’s assets. These promissory notes are payable in interest only beginning in October 2004, and thereafter fully due and payable in March 2005. These promissory notes are not convertible into shares of our common stock. In connection with this financing, the Company issued to each of Pandora and Whitebox five-year warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $3.00 per share. Also in connection with this financing, the Company paid a 3% cash origination fee to an affiliate of the lenders.

On March 10, 2005, the Company signed amendments to the two $750,000 secured promissory notes with Pandora and Whitebox. The amendments extended the due date of the notes to June 10, 2005, and permitted further extension by the Company to September 10, 2005. As part of the amendments, the Company agreed to maintain assets whose aggregate value equals or exceeds the principal and interest amounts then owed under the notes. For purposes of valuing the assets for compliance under this provision, the Company’s cash is valued at 100%, the Company’s accounts receivable are valued at 80% and the Company’s inventory and fixed assets are valued at 50% of their book value. As consideration for the amendments, the Company paid Pandora and Whitebox each $18,750 and amortized the expense over the extended period. After entering into the amendments, the Company elected to extend the notes to September 10, 2005, and in consideration for the extension paid each of Pandora and Whitebox a 2.5% origination fee on the then-outstanding principal amount of their respective notes.

On September 28, 2005, the Company entered into Forbearance and Extension Agreements with both Pandora and Whitebox which further extended the maturity dates of the two promissory notes originally issued on September 10, 2004 (as amended in May 2005) until September 30, 2006. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company is required to pay accrued interest on the notes beginning on October 10, 2005 and on the tenth day of each calendar month thereafter.

As part of the September 10, 2004 financing, the Company agreed to file a registration statement covering the resale of the shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrants issued to Pandora and Whitebox, on the same terms as those involved in the Company’s investment agreements with Pandora in connection with the May 20, 2004 convertible-debt financing. This prospectus is a part of the registration statement which the Company was obligated to prepare and file with the Commission under the terms of the investment agreements with Pandora and Whitebox, and it covers all 100,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon Pandora’s and Whitebox’s exercise of the warrants issued in connection therewith. The transactions involving the May 20, 2004 convertible promissory note issued to Pandora (including the warrants and shares issuable pursuant thereto) and the September 10, 2004 promissory notes to Pandora and Whitebox (including the warrants and shares issuable pursuant thereto) are sometimes collectively referred to in this prospectus as the “Debt Financings.” The securities issued in the Debt Financings were issued pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in reliance on Section 4(2) of and Rule 506 promulgated under the Securities Act.

Transaction with Games of Chance. On June 16, 2004, Spectre entered into a distribution agreement with Games of Chance, Inc. (“Games of Chance”) pursuant to which the Company became the exclusive distributor for Games of Chance with respect to gaming machines purchased from a Japanese technology company and its affiliates. The distribution agreement has a five-year term. In consideration, Spectre issued 200,000 shares of its common stock to Games of Chance in a private placement pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The 200,000 shares of common stock so issued were not registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or the availability of an applicable exemption therefrom. Nevertheless, in the distribution agreement the Company granted Games of Chance piggyback registration rights, in the event the Company prepared and filed a registration statement, covering the resale of shares of common stock issued in the Games of Chance Transaction. The registration statement of which this prospectus is a part covers all 200,000 shares of common stock issued in the Games of Chance Transaction.

November 2004 Private Placement. On November 24, 2004, the Company completed a private-placement offering of securities pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act (the “November 2004 Private Placement”). In the November 2004 Private Placement, the Company offered a maximum of 4,000,000 units (subject to an available overallotment to be determined by the Company and its selling agents) pursuant to Section 4(2) and Rule 506 promulgated under the Securities Act. Each unit offered and sold in the November 2004 Private Placement consisted of one share of common stock and a five-year warrant to purchase an additional share of common stock at a purchase price of $3.75. In the November 2004 Private Placement, the Company received and accepted subscriptions for an aggregate of 1,811,429 units at $2.50 per unit, aggregating to gross proceeds of $4,528,573. In connection with the November 2004 Private Placement, the Company engaged Feltl and Company and The Seidler Companies Incorporated (the “Seidler Companies”) to serve as exclusive placement agents for the units on a reasonable-efforts basis. As compensation, the foregoing agents collectively received cash commissions totaling $362,286, and were granted five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 181,143 units at a purchase price of $2.50. The Company incurred legal fees and other expenses of $70,898 related to the November 2004 Private Placement. All warrants granted to Feltl and Company and Seidler Companies in connection with the November 2004 Private Placement were fully vested.

Neither the units issued in the November 2004 Private Placement nor the shares of common stock or warrants comprising the units (or shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants) were registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or the availability of an applicable exemption therefrom. As part of the November 2004 Private Placement, the Company agreed to prepare and file a registration statement covering the resale of all of the shares of common stock issued, and common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants comprising the units, in the November 2004 Private Placement, and cause such registration statement to be declared effective prior to April 13, 2005. This prospectus is a part of the registration statement which the Company was obligated to prepare and file with the Commission under the terms of the investment agreements involved in the November 2004 Private Placement. The registration statement of which this prospectus is a part was originally declared effective by the Commission on January 25, 2005.

RISK FACTORS
 
The purchase of shares of the Company’s common stock is very speculative and involves a very high degree of risk. An investment in the Company is suitable only for the persons who can afford the loss of their entire investment. Accordingly, investors should carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as other information set forth herein, in making an investment decision with respect to securities of the Company.

We have no operating history and our business plan is currently being tested. We anticipate incurring future losses.

We are in the early stages of developing and distributing AWP games. We are therefore subject to all of the risks and uncertainties inherent in establishing a new business. We have no prior operating history for these products from which to evaluate our success, or our likelihood of success in operating our business, generating any revenues or achieving profitability. In sum, we have very limited assets, very little operating revenue and uncertain prospects of future profitable operations. Our operations may not be successful and the likelihood of our success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays frequently encountered in connection with the formation of a new business, development of technology and the competitive environment in which we operate. We anticipate that we will incur losses in the near future.

We will need additional financing in the future and any such financing will likely dilute our existing shareholders.

We require additional sources of financing before we can generate revenues to sustain operations. In particular, management believes the Company’s current cash is sufficient to continue operations only through May 2006. We are actively seeking sources of additional financing.

Additional financing could be sought from a number of sources, including but not limited to additional sales of equity or debt securities (including equity-linked or convertible debt securities), loans from banks, loans from affiliates of the Company or other financial institutions. We may not, however, be able to sell any securities or obtain any such additional financing when needed, or do so on terms and conditions acceptable or favorable to the Company, if at all. If financing is not available, we may be forced to abandon our business plans or our entire business, discontinue our preparation and filing of public disclosure reports with the SEC, or dissolve the Company. If we successfully enter into a financing transaction, any additional equity or equity-linked financing would be dilutive to shareholders, and additional debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants.

Our independent auditors have substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

We have had net losses for each of the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, and we had an accumulated deficit as of December 31, 2005. Since the financial statements for each of these periods were prepared assuming that we would continue as a going concern, in the view of our independent auditors, these conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Furthermore, since we are pursuing a new line of business, this diminishes our ability to accurately forecast our revenues and expenses. We expect that our ability to continue as a going concern depends, in large part, on our ability to raise sufficient capital through subsequent equity or debt financing transactions. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we may be forced to discontinue our business.

6

Our redemption gaming products have not been, and may never be, fully developed.

Pursuant to our Redemption Technology and Supply Agreement with Bally Gaming, Inc., we are enhancing Bally’s AWP redemption gaming technology. The development process has not yet been completed and we cannot be certain that the operating system will work as anticipated and required for use in a regulated marketplace. To date, we have had to make refinements, edits and other changes to the technology which has delayed our ability to get machines into the market. The completion of the development of our proposed AWP system remains subject to all the risks associated with the development and manufacture of new products, including unanticipated technical or other problems, failures to meet regulatory requirements or performance objectives, and the possible insufficiency of the funds allocated for the completion of such development, which could result in a change in the design, delay in the development, or abandonment of such system and its products. It is possible that our AWP system may never be fully developed or successfully distributed.

Even if successfully developed, our gaming products may not be accepted by the marketplace.

Our gaming systems and the gaming products, even if successfully tested, developed and manufactured, may not be accepted by the marketplace or successfully compete against other systems, games and products in the marketplace.

We will depend upon others for the manufacture of our gaming products, which will subject our business to the risk that we will be unable to fully control the supply of our products to the market.

Our ability to develop, manufacture and successfully commercialize our proposed products depends upon our ability to enter into and maintain contractual and collaborative arrangements with others, such as Bally. We do not intend to manufacture any of our proposed products; but instead intend to retain contract manufacturers. There can be no assurance that Bally or any other manufacturers will be able to supply our products in the required quantities, at appropriate quality levels or at acceptable costs. We may be adversely affected by any difficulties encountered by such third-party manufacturers that result in product defects, production delays or the inability to fulfill orders on a timely basis. If a manufacturer cannot meet our quality standards and delivery requirements in a cost-efficient manner, we would likely suffer interruptions of delivery while we arrange for alternative manufacturing sources. Any extended disruption in the delivery of products could result in our inability to satisfy customer demand for our products. Consequently, our inability to obtain alternative sources on a timely basis may have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Our reliance on third-party manufacturers and other third parties in other aspects of our business will reduce any profits we may earn from our products, and may negatively affect future product development.

As noted above, we currently intend to market and commercialize products manufactured by others, and in connection therewith we will likely be required to enter into manufacturing, licensing and distribution arrangements with third parties. These arrangements will likely reduce our product profit margins. In addition, the identification of new product candidates for development may require us to enter into licensing or other collaborative agreements with others. These collaborative agreements may require us to pay license fees, make milestone payments, pay royalties and/or grant rights, including marketing rights, to one or more parties. Any such arrangement will likely reduce our profits. Moreover, these arrangements may contain covenants restricting our product development or business efforts in the future.

7

We may not be able to enter into manufacturing agreements or other collaborative agreements on terms acceptable to us, if at all, which failure would materially and adversely affect our business.

We may not be able to enter into manufacturing or other collaborative arrangements with third parties on terms acceptable to us, if at all, when and as required. If we fail to establish such arrangements when and as necessary, we could be required to undertake these activities at our own expense, which would significantly increase our capital requirements and may delay the development, manufacture and installation of our gaming machines on casino floors. If we cannot find ways of addressing these capital requirements, we would likely be forced to sell or abandon our business.

Our inability to protect the intellectual property we use could impair our ability to compete.

Our success and ability to compete depend in part upon proprietary intellectual property. The intellectual property we use currently consists of certain licensed propriety technology that is critical to our AWP business, as well as other trademark, image and likeness, moral rights, and certain other intellectual property assets. We currently rely and intend to rely in the future on a combination of copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret laws, and nondisclosure agreements to protect our proprietary technology. Although we have entered into confidentiality, non-compete and invention assignment agreements with our employees and otherwise limit access to, and distribution of, our proprietary technology, there can be no assurance that such agreements will not be breached, that we would have adequate remedies for any breach, or that our trade secrets will not otherwise become independently developed or discovered by competitors.

The regulatory environment in which the Company operates lacks clarity, which could impair our ability to place redemption gaming machines in some jurisdictions.

AWP is not a highly regulated industry, and as such, it lacks the clarity which typically stems from the existence and a body of interpretation of laws and regulations. Moreover, AWP laws tend to be enforced at the county or city level instead of a central state-sponsored regulatory authority, which decreases the visibility and predictability of such regulation. The lack of clarity or guidance can lead to legal interpretation errors, changes in the manner in which the laws or controlling court cases are articulated and interpreted by law enforcement personnel, and disagreements about the legality of the Company’s operations and games in various jurisdictions. In turn, these matters can lead to delays in game deployment, removal of games from locations, withdrawal of business operations in various counties, as well as the possibility that games may be seized pending resolution of the appropriate court case, and the possible arrest of company personnel for violation of law.

Changes in regulatory approvals or regulatory interpretations may adversely effect our AWP operations.

It is possible that after the Company has either received a favorable guidance letter or meeting from a county or city authority, and commenced operations, that such authority may change its position or the person rendering the advice is replaced by another person, such as a change in District Attorney, and the advising authority determines that the Company’s activities or games do not comply with a new interpretation of the law or recent court case holdings. Such changes, to the negative, could cause the Company to limit its business activities in the respective jurisdiction, or to remove its operations and devices entirely.

Changes in laws regarding gaming or AWP may inhibit the Company’s ability to do business.

In the event that a state changes the laws under which redemption or AWP activity is conducted, such as outlawing the games entirely or further limiting bet, play and prize restrictions, this will have a negative impact on the placement of games and the further conduct of operations, if any in the respective state. Also, a state may determine to legalize other forms of gaming, such as slot machines. We expect that any such liberalization of gaming laws would have a negative impact on the Company’s operations in such state, unless the Company is able to convert the AWP games to the newly allowed form of games.

The Company will rely on relationships with operators and distributors to install and maintain its AWP devices.

The Company will establish partnerships with various distribution and service companies which are doing business in the jurisdictions in which Spectre will conduct AWP. These operators will provide sales and support, as well as money and data collection. Failure to find sufficient or capable partners may delay the rollout in various areas. Additionally, partners may not move quickly enough to exploit any market advantages the company may have. Partners may not provide a sufficient level of service, to the detriment of games in place or to future placements. Finally, partners will not be exclusive partners, and their associated business activities and conduct may cause conflict with the Company’s business.

More experienced and better financed companies may enter the AWP market which may result in the Company losing significant market share.

Currently, the AWP marketplaces in Texas and Florida, as well as other states, do not have any established major gaming competitors (such as IGT, Alliance, Aristocrat, Konami, MGAM, et al), but is instead a market for small second or third tier manufacturers. The entry of well financed, established competitors into the market could have a material impact on Spectre’s ability to place games or to continue to maintain the number of games in the field it will have at that time.

We are highly dependent on the services provided by certain executives and key personnel.

Our success depends in significant part upon the continued service of certain senior management and other key personnel. In particular, we are materially dependent upon the services of Russell C. Mix, a director of the Company and our Chief Executive Officer, and the services of D. Bradly Olah, a director of the Company and our President. We have an employment agreement with Mr. Mix, but if he should no longer serve the Company it would likely have a materially adverse impact on our business, financial condition and operations. We do not have an employment agreement with Mr. Olah. The Company has not secured any “key person” life insurance covering the lives of either Mr. Mix or Mr. Olah.

Our success also depends on our ability to identify, hire, train, retain and motivate highly skilled technical, managerial, sales and marketing personnel. We intend to hire a number of sales, business development, marketing, technical and administrative personnel in the future. Competition for such personnel is intense and there can be no assurance that we will successfully attract, assimilate or retain a sufficient number of qualified personnel. The failure to retain and attract the necessary technical, managerial, sales and marketing and administrative personnel could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and operations.

Our officers and directors, together with certain affiliates, possess substantial voting power with respect to our common stock, which could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

As of April 24, 2006, our officers and directors collectively possessed beneficial ownership of approximately 1,929,999 shares of our common stock, which represents approximately 12.6% of our common stock. Certain other significant shareholders, including Perkins Capital Management, Inc., Ronald E. Eibensteiner and Wayne W. Mills collectively possessed beneficial ownership of a total of approximately 6,412,059 shares of common stock, which represents approximately 36.7% of our common stock. When taken together, our directors, officers and significant shareholders have beneficial ownership of approximately 43.8% of our common stock. This represents a significant and controlling portion of the voting power of the Company’s shareholders. As a result, our directors and officers, together with significant shareholders, have the ability to substantially (but not wholly) control our management and affairs through the election and removal of our entire board of directors, and all other matters requiring shareholder approval, including the future merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. This concentrated control could discourage others from initiating any potential merger, takeover or other change-of-control transaction that may otherwise be beneficial to our shareholders. As a result, the market price of our common stock or ultimate sale of our business could be adversely affected.

Our stock price is, and we expect it to remain, volatile, which could limit our shareholders’ ability to resell shares of our common stock at a profit.

The volatile price of our common stock makes it difficult for shareholders to predict the value of their investment, to sell shares at a profit at any given time, or to plan purchases and sales in advance. A variety of factors may affect the market price of our common stock, including but not limited to:

·            
achievement or rejection of regulatory approvals in favor of us or the tribes or other purchasers of our products
 
·            
announcements of technological innovations or new commercial products by us or our competitors
 
·            
developments concerning proprietary rights, including patents
 
·            
regulatory developments relating to the United States relating to the gaming industry
 
·            
period-to-period fluctuations in our revenues and other results of operations, and
 
·            
sales of our common stock.
 
We will not be able to control many of these factors, and we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our financial results will not necessarily be indicative of our future performance.

Our articles of incorporation grant the Company’s board of directors with the power to designate and issue additional shares of common and/or preferred stock.

Our authorized capital consists of 100,000,000 shares of capital stock. Pursuant to authority granted by the Company’s articles of incorporation, our board of directors, without any action by the shareholders, may designate and issue shares in such classes or series (including classes or series of common stock and/or preferred stock) as it deems appropriate and establish the rights, preferences, and privileges of such shares, including dividends, liquidation and voting rights. The rights of holders of classes or series of common stock or preferred stock that may be issued could be superior to the rights of our exiting capital stock. Our board of directors’ ability to designate and issue shares could impede or deter an unsolicited tender offer or takeover proposal. Further, the issuance of additional shares having preferential rights could adversely affect other rights appurtenant to the shares of common stock offered hereby. Any such issuances will dilute the percentage of ownership interest of our shareholders and may dilute the per-share book value of the Company.

10

As of April 24, 2006, we had 13,710,537 shares of common stock outstanding. As of such date, a further 18,833,838 shares of our common stock have been reserved for issuance as follows:

·            
2,300,000 shares under our existing stock option plans, of which options relating to 1,901,668 shares are currently outstanding
 
·            
1,511,942 shares relating to additional options granted outside of our stock option plans
 
·            
97,798 shares upon conversion of outstanding Series A Preferred Stock
 
·            
4,481,250 shares upon conversion of outstanding Series B Preferred Stock, and
 
·            
10,442,848 shares upon the exercise of outstanding warrants.
 
In connection with the sale of 7,420 shares of our Series B Preferred Stock, the Company obtained the right, until September 23, 2006 and upon meeting certain milestones, to sell to the original Series B investors another 2,580 preferred shares, which would be convertible into 1,612,500 shares of common stock, together with warrants to purchase 1,612,500 common shares. In addition, until March 23, 2007 the original Series B investors have the option to purchase another 7,420 preferred shares, convertible into 4,637,500 common shares, and receive warrants to purchase 4,637,500 common shares.

In addition to the above reservations of shares of common stock, the Company is obligated under a Securities Purchase Agreement dated October 27, 2005, entered into with purchasers of Series B Preferred Stock to reserve additional shares of common stock that may be required to pay dividends, if paid in common stock, and to fulfill other obligations to such purchasers in connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement.

Our common stock trades only in an illiquid trading market.

Trading of our common stock is conducted on the over-the-counter bulletin board. This has an adverse effect on the liquidity of our common stock, not only in terms of the number of shares that can be bought and sold at a given price, but also through delays in the timing of transactions and reduction in security analysts’ and the media’s coverage of our Company and its common stock. This may result in lower prices for our common stock than might otherwise be obtained and could also result in a larger spread between the bid and asked prices for our common stock.

There is currently little trading volume in our common stock, which may make it difficult to sell shares of our common stock.

In general, there has been very little trading activity in our common stock. Over the past three months, the average daily trading volume (as reported by Yahoo Finance) has been approximately 80,000 shares. The relatively small trading volume will likely make it difficult for our shareholders to sell their shares as and when they choose. Furthermore, small trading volumes generally depress market prices. As a result, you may not always be able to resell shares of our common stock publicly at the time and prices that you feel are fair or appropriate.

Because it is a “penny stock,” you may have difficulty selling shares of our common stock.

Our common stock is a “penny stock” and is therefore subject to the requirements of Rule 15g-9 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. Under this rule, broker-dealers who sell penny stocks must provide purchasers of these stocks with a standardized risk-disclosure document prepared by the SEC. Under applicable regulations, our common stock will generally remain a “penny stock” until and for such time as its per-share price is $5.00 or more (as determined in accordance with SEC regulations), or until we meet certain net asset or revenue thresholds. These thresholds include the possession of net tangible assets (i.e., total assets less intangible assets and liabilities) in excess of $2,000,000 in the event we have been operating for at least three years or $5,000,000 in the event we have been operating for fewer than three years, and the recognition of average revenues equal to at least $6,000,000 for each of the last three years. We do not anticipate meeting any of the foregoing thresholds in the foreseeable future.

The penny-stock rules severely limit the liquidity of securities in the secondary market, and many brokers choose not to participate in penny-stock transactions. As a result, there is generally less trading in penny stocks. If you become a holder of our common stock, you may not always be able to resell shares of our common stock publicly at the time and prices that you feel are fair or appropriate.

We have no intention of paying dividends on our common stock.

To date, we have not paid any cash dividends and do not anticipate the payment of cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the only return on an investment in shares of our common stock, if any, may occur upon a subsequent sale of such shares.

MANAGEMENT’S PLAN OF OPERATION
 
Overview:

Spectre Gaming, Inc. (the “Company” or “Spectre,” “we,” “us” or “ours”) (formerly OneLink, Inc.) was incorporated in Minnesota in June 1990 under the name MarketLink, Inc. At that time, the Company provided telecommunications-based business-intelligence services to client end users. In January 1997, the Company changed its name to OneLink Communications, Inc., and later in June 2000, changed its name to OneLink, Inc. In July 2002, the Company ceased operating its telecommunications-based business, and in December 2002 sold substantially all of its assets. In September 2003, the Company adopted a new business plan focused on providing interactive electronic games to the Native American and charitable gaming markets, and in January 2004 changed its name to Spectre Gaming, Inc. The Company designs and develops networks, software and content that provide its customers with a comprehensive gaming system.
 
During the fourth quarter of 2004, the Company began generating revenues for the first time since developing and implementing its new gaming machine and gaming system business. These revenues resulted in gross profits of $18,943 before expenses. During 2004, the Company invested heavily in research and development primarily through a software development transaction with MET Games, Inc. of Oklahoma. The Company increased its selling, general and administrative expenses significantly in 2004 as it built its infrastructure to capitalize on the opportunities in the Native American class II and class III gaming markets. During 2004, the Company raised substantial capital by selling equity in the Company through two private placements and also by issuing notes payable and common stock warrants.

In May 2005, the Company acquired the exclusive license to a proprietary technology for the development and deployment of casino-style redemption or amusement-with-prize (“AWP”) games. The Company has begun the development of AWP games and plans to distribute the games to operators at various retail, commercial and entertainment venues in the United States which allow for such devices.

In order to fund its efforts to enter the AWP market, in October 2005, the Company completed a private placement of its Series B Variable Rate Preferred Stock. In December 2005,the Company decided to exit the Class II and Class III markets to focus its efforts solely on the AWP market. Accordingly, the Company has reduced its staff in Tulsa, Oklahoma and El Cajon, California, and has removed nearly all of its gaming devices from the floors of its casino customers. The Company is actively trying to liquidate its inventory of Class II and Class III gaming devices and may not recover the book value of the inventory and other assets. As a result, the Company has taken charges to operations in 2005 of approximately $2,300,000 connection with the closure of the Company’s facilities in Oklahoma and California and the liquidation of its inventory and fixed assets in those states. In determining the value of its assets of discontinued operations, the Company relied on estimates provided by potential buyers, industry operators and its own limited sales results. Therefore, the Company cannot assure what it will realize upon the disposition of these assets.

In fiscal 2005, the Company has accounted for the results of operations and assets used in the Class II and Class III markets as discontinued operations. The loss from discontinued operations includes the operating loss and the gain or loss on sale, if any, of these assets. Fiscal 2005 and 2004 results of operations have been reclassified to reflect the Class II and Class III results as discontinued operations.

The Company currently has 20 AWP machines in operation in Florida on a test basis and has agreements signed and a backlog of 2,450 machines as of April 24, 2006. However, the Company’s AWP business is still in development. If we do not have or do not expect to have significant sales of our products within this market in the first six-months of fiscal 2006, we will present our financial statements as a development stage company in the first quarter of 2006. Management did not consider the Company to be in the development stage in fiscal 2005 because it continued to develop and market its Class II and Class III games through December 2005.

Results of Operations:

Year Ended December 31, 2005 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2004

Revenues. The Company’s revenues from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were $0 due to the fact that the Company is new to the AWP business and had no revenue producing sales.

Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit. The Company’s cost of revenues from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $1,517, compared to $0 for the year ended December 31, 2004, an increase of 100%. The cost of revenues in 2005 relate to installation of the Company’s games on a trial basis.

Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2005 was ($1,517) compared to $0 for the year ended December 31, 2004. The loss was due to the fact that no revenue from continuing operations had been generated for the initial installation of AWP Products.

Research and Product Development Expenses. Research and product development expenses for continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2005 were $361,122, compared to $0 for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase was due to the Company beginning development of its AWP products.

Sales and Marketing Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses for the year ended December 31, 2005 were $642,642, compared to $0 for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increases in expense primarily resulted from the Company commencing operations in the AWP market and consists primarily of amortization of the long-term technology and distribution rights acquired from Bally Gaming.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2005 were $2,130,374, compared to $700,422 for the year ended December 31, 2004, an increase of 304%. The increase was due primarily to the addition of corporate staff, increased professional fees and other corporate expenses.

Other Expense. Other expense was $2,950,180 for the year ended December 31, 2005, compared to $781,978 for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase in other expense is primarily due to interest on increased borrowings along with the amortization of the associated debt issuance costs and the amortization of the original issue discount related to the Company’s convertible note payable, short-term debt and bank promissory note.

Loss From Discontinued Operations. The loss from discontinued operations was $4,035,500 and $2,911,791 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 respectively. The 2005 loss included a charge for $2,268,652 related to the write-down of Class II and Class III inventory and equipment. Without taking into account the effect of this charge, the loss in 2005 was $1,766,848. Losses in 2004 were greater then 2005 primarily due to research and development expenses in 2004 which included $850,000 relating to the acquisition of MET Games, Inc.

Net Loss. The Company incurred a net loss of $10,232,619 for the year ended December 31, 2005, compared to a net loss of $4,394,191 for the prior year. These increased net losses for 2005 as compared to 2004 are primarily the result of the Company commencing AWP operations, losses from discontinued operations in the Native American and charitable gaming markets which involve significant increases in employee and consulting expense and increased interest expense.

14

Liquidity and Capital Resources. The Company had negative working capital of $1,260,338 and positive working capital of $2,473,453 at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. During 2005, cash used in operations was $3,937,338, and the primary uses of cash were to fund the Company’s net loss, acquire inventory and reduce payables and accrued expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2004, the cash used in operations was $4,386,270 and the primary use of cash was to fund the Company’s net loss, acquire inventory and to prepay license fees. These uses were partially offset by an increase in accounts payable, payroll and related taxes and accrued expenses and non-cash charges related to common stock, stock options and warrants issued for services.

Cash used in investing activities was $2,212,066 and $845,475 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2005, $2,000,000 of cash was used in the purchase of the technology and distribution rights from Bally. For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company used cash for capital expenditures, primarily at its El Cajon, California location and to purchase gaming equipment.

Cash provided by financing activities was $5,374,955 and $7,339,350 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. In November 2003, the Company began a private placement which ended in March 2004. A majority of the sales of the Company’s common stock in this private placement occurred after December 31, 2003. In the private placement, the Company sold a total of 1,796,829 shares of its common stock (of which 1,531,989 were sold in 2004) for a per-share price of $0.75 (i.e., raising a gross total of $1,347,622, $1,148,996 of which was raised in 2004). The Company used an agent for a portion of these sales. As a fee, the Company paid the agent $62,550 in cash and issued the agent fully-vested five-year warrants to purchase up to 83,400 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.75 per share. In addition, the Company incurred legal fees and other expenses of $19,407 related to this private placement.

In November 2004, the Company completed a private placement of 1,811,429 units, each unit consisting of one share of common stock and a five-year warrant to purchase one additional share of common stock at a purchase price of $3.75 per share. The per-unit price was $2.50 (i.e., raising a gross total of $4,528,573). The Company used two agents in completing the sale of the units in the November 2004 private placement. As a fee, the Company paid the agents an aggregate of $362,286 in cash, and issued the agents fully-vested five-year warrants to purchase up to 181,143 units for an exercise price of $2.50 per unit. In addition, the Company incurred legal fees and other expenses of $70,898 related to this private placement.

On May 20, 2004, the Company received $1,100,000 in a convertible debt investment from Pandora Select Partners, L.P. The note was payable in interest only, at 10% per annum, through August 20, 2004, and thereafter is payable in equal monthly installments over the next 15 months. The note is convertible by Pandora into common stock of Spectre at $2.50 per share, and allows Spectre, subject to certain conditions and limitations, to make monthly installment payments with its common stock at a price per share equal to 90% of the average closing bid price of the common stock over the 30 trading days immediately preceding the payment date. In connection with the financing, Spectre paid a 3% origination fee, issued a fully-vested five-year warrant for the purchase of 200,000 shares of Spectre’s common stock at $2.50 per share, and granted Pandora a security interest in the Company’s assets. In addition, Spectre agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC, covering the issuance or resale of the shares of Spectre’s common stock which may be issued in connection with the note and warrant issued to Pandora. The registration statement was declared effective on January 24, 2005. In connection with the financing,

the Company also paid a finder’s fee to Blake Capital Advisors, LLC, a Minnesota limited liability company wholly owned by Wayne W. Mills, a greater-than-five-percent shareholder of the Company, of $50,000 and issued a fully-vested five-year warrant for the purchase of 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $2.50 per share and a fully-vested five-year warrant for the purchase of 50,000 shares at $3.00 per share. Net cash received by the Company after paying the finders fee, origination fee and legal cost of the lender of $10,000 was $1,007,000. The balance of the note was paid on October 28, 2005.

On September 10, 2004, the Company issued two $750,000 promissory notes accruing interest at 10% per annum. One note was issued to Pandora and the other note was issued to Whitebox Intermarket Partners L.P. The notes were payable interest only through March 10, 2005, at which time the principal became due. In connection with the financing, Spectre paid a 3% origination fee, issued fully-vested five-year warrants for the purchase of 50,000 shares of Spectre’s common stock at $3.00 per share to both Pandora and Whitebox, and granted Pandora and Whitebox security interests in the Company’s assets. In addition, Spectre agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC, covering the issuance or resale of the shares of Spectre’s common stock which may be issued in connection with the warrants issued to Pandora and Whitebox. The registration statement was declared effective on January 24, 2005. Net cash received by the Company after paying the origination fee and legal costs of the lenders of $5,000 was $1,450,000.

On March 10, 2005, the Company signed amendments to the two $750,000 secured promissory notes with Pandora and Whitebox. The amendments extended the due date of the notes to June 10, 2005, and provided the Company with the option to further extend the due date to September 10, 2005. As part of the amendment the Company agreed to maintain assets whose value equals or exceeds the principal interest amounts then owned under the notes. For purposes of valuing the assets for compliance under this provision, the Company’s cash is valued at 100%, the Company’s accounts receivable are valued at 80% and the Company’s inventory and fixed assets are valued at 50% of their book value. As consideration for the amendments, the Company paid Pandora and Whitebox each $18,750. In June 2005, the Company exercised its option to extend the due dates of the two notes to September 10, 2005, and in consideration therefore paid the lenders $18,750 each.

On September 28, 2005, the Company entered into Forbearance and Extension Agreements with both Pandora and Whitebox further extending the maturity dates of the two March 2005 promissory notes until September 30, 2006. Pursuant to these agreements, beginning October 10, 2005 and on the tenth day of each month thereafter, the Company is required to pay the accrued interest on the notes.

On June 21, 2005, the Company secured a $1.5 million loan from Crown Bank of Edina, Minnesota. In connection with this loan the Company paid a 2% origination fee. The loan was guaranteed by two persons, Ronald E. Eibensteiner (the Company’s former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and then a greater-than-ten-percent shareholder) and D. Bradly Olah. In exchange for their guarantees, the Company issued each of the foregoing guarantors five-year warrants to purchase 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at the price of $2.20, the closing price of the common stock on the date of issuance.

On September 29, 2005, the Company entered into a Forbearance and Extension Agreement with Crown Bank, extending the due date of the $1.5 million unsecured promissory note until October 31, 2005. On October 28, 2005, the Company paid the balance in full of the unsecured promissory note to Crown Bank.

On September 23, 2005 the Company signed a term sheet with PDS Gaming for a $20 million credit facility to finance its AWP gaming equipment. The term sheet is not a definitive agreement. As currently contemplated, terms of the facility will provide that the Company may make draws in increments of a minimum of $650,000 up to $10 million. Each loan under the facility will be amortized over 36 months with interest at 13% and will be subject to the Company meeting certain financial covenants and other conditions. A 1% fee will be required to be paid at closing of the facility and a 4% fee will be required on each draw. The Company is required to pay the expenses of the lender and paid an expense advance of $22,500 in September 2005. As of March 21, 2006, the Company had not closed on the credit facility.

On October 27, 2005, the Company offered and sold an aggregate of 7,420 shares of Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock, together with five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 4,637,500 shares of common stock at $1.84 per share. The preferred shares are convertible into an aggregate of 4,637,500 of common stock at a conversion price of $1.60 per share. Of the 7,420 shares of Series B Preferred Stock sold, subscriptions for an aggregate of 1,230 shares were accepted, in lieu of cash, upon conversion of $1,230,000 of the principal amounts of nine unsecured short-term promissory notes made to the Company. Among subscribers converting loans into securities in the private placement were D. Bradly Olah, the President of the Company, and Prolific Publishing, Inc., a company of which Russell C. Mix, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, is a director. Sales of the Series B Preferred Stock and warrants raised an aggregate of $7,420,000 in gross proceeds (which figure includes the conversion of $1,230,000 of principal amount of loans made to the Company) less approximately $615,000 in sales commissions payable in cash. In addition to cash compensation, selling agents received five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 695,624 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.84 per share.

In connection with the Series B Preferred Stock offering, the Company was required by the purchase agreement to register the common shares issuable upon conversion of the preferred stock, warrants and other shares issuable under the agreement. The Company filed a registration statement which was declared effective on December 23, 2005.

On June 30, 2004, the Company signed a three-year non-exclusive License Agreement with Bally Gaming Inc., a Nevada corporation. The License Agreement obligates the Company to purchase from Bally Gaming the lesser of (i) 3,000 game cabinets over the term of the agreement or (ii) 70% of its Class II cabinet purchases. In addition, the Company was obligated to purchase at least 100 game cabinets from Bally Gaming, and incur certain minimum license-fee charges of $187,500. The Company has purchased 100 game cabinets from Bally Gaming. The agreement was terminated in August 2005. In connection with the termination, Bally agreed to allow the prepaid license fees of $187,500 to be applied to future Class III title purchases. The Company is in discussions with Bally to allow these fees to be applied against future AWP royalty fees due Bally.

On May 24, 2005, the Company entered into a Redemption Technology and Supply Agreement with Bally Gaming pursuant to which the Company acquired a license for certain AWP technology from Bally Gaming, including exclusive distribution rights to that technology and follow-on exclusive distribution rights for Video Lottery Terminals (“VLT”), if VLT becomes legal. This agreement and the license last for an initial term of five years, but may be extended if the Company meets certain performance targets. Under the agreement, the Company is obligated to pay an upfront fee of $5 million. Of this amount, $1 million was paid in June 2005, $1 million was due on August 15, 2005, and the Company delivered an unsecured two-year promissory note for the remaining $3 million, providing for payments in four equal installments on each successive six-month anniversary of the agreement. The note bears interest at 12% per annum. In addition to the upfront fee, beginning in January 2007 the agreement requires the Company to pay royalties monthly based on the number of in-service redemption games during each day of the agreement’s term. On August 15, 2005, the Company received an extension until August 31, 2005 to make the $1 million payment to Bally’s that was due on August 15, 2005. On September 9, 2005, the Company received an additional extension until September 29, 2005 to make the required payment. On September 30, 2005, the agreement was amended and Bally agreed to accept a payment from the Company in partial satisfaction of the total amount owed Bally. In addition, Bally agreed to a payment extension for the remaining balance owed (in the principal amount of $1,572,566) plus accrued interest at 18% per annum, with such remaining amount due on October 31, 2005. On October 31, 2005, the Company paid the agreed upon amounts due Bally.

17

In October 2005, the Company paid Bally Gaming the agreed-upon amounts due as of October 31, 2005 under the Redemption Technology and Supply Agreement as amended, repaid the unsecured promissory note with Crown Bank, repaid the May 2004 convertible note issued to Pandora and converted nine unsecured short-term promissory notes into 1,030 shares of its Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock. A portion of the proceeds received from the sale of Series B preferred stock was used to make these payments.

Effective as of March 29, 2006, the Company entered into an amendment of the Redemption Technology and Supply Agreement with Bally Gaming. Under the amendment, the Company is obligated to purchase from Bally Gaming at least 175 gaming cabinets incorporating certain proprietary technology that the Company licenses from Bally Gaming, prior to April 30, 2006. As of the date of this prospectus, the Company has not closed on the purchase of the 175 gaming cabinets, but anticipates such closing will be effected prior to the end of May 2006. Thereafter, and after the Company has deployed all such 175 gaming cabinets with its customers, the Company will be obligated to purchase from Bally Gaming the next new 1,825 such gaming cabinets that the Company orders. In addition, Bally Gaming agreed to (i) defer a $750,000 payment that the Company owes pursuant to a promissory note the Company delivered to Bally Gaming in connection with the Redemption Technology and Supply Agreement, as amended, until June 30, 2006, and (ii) provide the Company with an additional 30-day period to cure any non-payment of such amount by that date. Subject to conditions that may be imposed by location operators, the parties agreed that all Company amusement-with-prize games placed at new third-party retail locations will employ Bally Gaming’s redemption and fulfillment system. The amendment also contains provisions for the transition of currently placed amusement-with-prize games to the use of the Bally Gaming redemption and fulfillment system. In the event that the Company does not have at least 1,000 gaming cabinets operating in the State of Texas by June 30, 2007, then the Company will forfeit its right to distribute Bally Gaming video lottery terminals in that state, if and when such terminals become legal in that state, as described in the Redemption Technology and Supply Agreement, as amended. The parties extended the term of the Redemption Technology and Supply Agreement, as amended, through June 30, 2008, with certain performance-related conditions to the ability to extend the term for up to eight years beyond the effective date of the amendment.

In addition, the amendment provides that if the Company (i) meets certain financing conditions on or prior to June 30, 2006 (subject to a 30-day extension) and (ii) makes all interest payments due under the promissory note delivered to Bally Gaming in connection with the Redemption Technology and Supply Agreement, as amended, then: (A) the Company may payoff the entire amount due under the promissory note by delivering a lump-sum payment equal to the sum of 75% of the then-current principal balance plus all accrued and unpaid interest; or in the alternative may require Bally Gaming to restructure the promissory note to defer $750,000 in principal payments (due on each of March 29 and September 29, 2006) until December 31, 2006 with the total $1.5 million due being amortized thereafter over 18 months, and (b) the parties will agree to a revised royalty payment structure under the Redemption Technology and Supply Agreement, as amended, generally providing the Company with greater flexibility.

Over the next 12 months, the Company expects to spend a significant amount on capital equipment purchases primarily for AWP machines, and for such purpose expects to seek financing to purchase such equipment.

During 2005 and 2004, we did not pay or declare any cash dividends on common stock and do not intend to pay any cash dividends on common stock in the near future.

The Company anticipates that it will expend significant resources in 2006 acquiring machines to be placed in amusement centers on either a fixed lease or a participation basis. Once placed in service these machines are transferred to fixed assets.

Management believes that its cash will be sufficient to satisfy its cash requirements only through May 2006. Beyond that point, the Company will need to obtain additional cash to meet its needs, including repaying the Bally, Pandora and Whitebox notes described above and has been actively pursuing sources of additional financing.

Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance-sheet arrangements.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2004, FASB issued SFAS No. 151 “Inventory Costs” amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4 “Inventory Pricing,” to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). Paragraph 5 pf ARB 43, Chapter 4, previously stated that under some circumstances, items such as idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, double freight, and rehandling costs may be so abnormal as to require treatment as current period charges. SFAS No. 151 requires that those items be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of “so abnormal.” In addition, SFAS No, 151 requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. SFAS No. 151 shall be effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after the date SFAS No. 151 was issued. SFAS No. 151 shall be applied prospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 151 to have a material effect on its financial statements.

In December 2004, FASB issued SFAS No. 123R which requires companies to recognize in the income statement the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees, but expressed no preference for the type of valuation model. FASB No. 123R is effective for small business issuers as of the beginning of interim or annual reporting periods that begin after December 15, 2005. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 123R in its first fiscal 2006 quarter. The impact of SFAS No. 123R for 2006 is expected to be approximately $770,000 based on options outstanding at December 31, 2005 which will vest during 2006.

19

In June 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections”, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3. The statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle, and changes the requirements for accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impracticable. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for accounting changes and corrections of errors made occurring in fiscal years beginning after June 1, 2005. The statement does not change the transition provisions of any existing accounting pronouncements, including those that are in a transition phase as of the effective date of this statement. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 154 to have a material effect on its financial statements

Critical Accounting Policies

Our critical accounting policies are those both having the most impact to the reporting of our financial condition and results, and requiring significant judgments and estimates. Our critical accounting policies include those related to (a) revenue recognition, (b) property, plant and equipment, (c) inventory, (d) intangible assets and (e) the valuation of stock-based compensation awarded. The Company derives its gaming revenues primarily two ways, outright sales of machines to customers, and participation arrangements with its customers. Revenue for machine sales is recorded upon shipment. Under the participation arrangements, the Company retains ownership of the equipment installed at a customer site and receives revenue based on a percentage of the hold per day generated by each gaming system, which is generally considered both realizable and earned at the end of each gaming day. The Company accounts for the participation agreements as operating leases. Property, equipment and leasehold improvements and leased gaming equipment were stated at cost. Depreciation of an asset was recognized on the straight-line basis over the asset’s estimated useful life ranging from three to five years. Leasehold improvements were amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed when incurred. Inventory, which consists principally of gaming products and related materials, are stated at the lower of cost (determined on the specific identification method) or market. Acquired intangible assets are recorded at their estimated fair market value on the acquisition date and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over five years. The Company uses the intrinsic value-based method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations in accounting for employee stock options and stock based compensation. The Company uses Emerging Issues Task Force 96-18 (EITF 96-18), "Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services," to value options and warrants issued to non-employees. Management's estimates of the fair value of each option and warrant granted is calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model with weighted-average assumptions including risk free interest rate, expected life of options granted, expected volatility range, and expected dividend yield.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
History

Spectre Gaming, Inc. (the “Company” or “Spectre,” “we,” “us” or “ours”) (formerly OneLink, Inc.) was incorporated in Minnesota in June 1990 under the name MarketLink, Inc. At that time, the Company provided telecommunications-based business-intelligence services to client end users. In January 1997, the Company changed its name to OneLink Communications, Inc., and later in June 2000, changed its name to OneLink, Inc. In July 2002, the Company ceased operating its telecommunications-based business, and in December 2002 sold substantially all of its assets. In September 2003, the Company adopted a new business plan focused on providing interactive electronic games to the Native American and charitable gaming markets, and in January 2004 changed its name to Spectre Gaming, Inc. Initially, Spectre focused on designing and developing networks, software and content to provide a comprehensive gaming system to the Class II and Class III markets.

In May 2005, the Company acquired the exclusive license to a proprietary technology for the development and deployment of casino-style redemption or amusement-with-prize (“AWP”) games. AWP games are distinguishable from casino games in that players can win prized or credits redeemable for prizes as opposed to cash. The Company has begun the development of AWP games and plans to distribute the games to operators at various retail, commercial and entertainment venues in the United States which allow for such devices. The Company has decided to focus its efforts in this market and discontinued its efforts in the Class II and Class III markets. In accordance with appropriate accounting rules, we have reclassified our previously reported financial results to exclude the results of our Class II and Class III business and these results are presented on a historical basis as a separate line in our statements of operations and balance sheets entitled “Discontinued Operations.” Our continuing operations represent our AWP business only. Most references to financial information and description of business in this Form 10-KSB have been revised to reflect only our continuing operations and most references to our now discontinued Class II and Class III business have been eliminated.

Our principal executive office is located at 14200 23rd Avenue N., Minneapolis, MN 55447. Our telephone number at that office is (763) 553-7601. Our internet website is www.spectregaming.com.

The Markets

The Company has identified four specific aspects of this market, or submarkets, to focus on: countertop and touchscreen machines, redemption and novelty, eight-liner/video poker, and other aspects that we believe are untapped.

Countertops/Touchscreens— The countertop/slant-top game submarket flourishes in bars, lounges and truck stops across America. This submarket is primarily serviced by amusement operators that distribute juke boxes, pool tables, electronic dart boards and other amusement devices. This submarket is composed of stand-alone games containing what we believe to be antiquated technology. For example, these games do not operate under a client/server model, have no downloadable capabilities, and require a board swap or EPROM (Erasable, Programmable, Read Only Memory) changes and new graphics on the class or cabinet to change games and play. We believe that once successfully developed, the Spectre system will facilitate the changing of games once they have met their normal “shelf life,” and at a fraction of the current cost.

Redemption/Novelty— These devices are at street locations, including theaters, restaurants and adult entertainment centers (e.g., Dave and Busters, Game Works). This submarket is primarily serviced by the same amusement operators that currently dominate the countertop/slant-top marketplace.

21

Eight Liner/Video Poker— The Eight Liner/Video poker segment is the fastest growing electronic amusement submarket in the United States. This market has historically been served by the amusement industry with very little connection to legitimate gaming device manufacturers. Suppliers within this segment are commonly known as “Grey Area” manufacturers and are typically “mom and pop” final assemblers having less than $10 million in annual revenue. Many of these devices are believed to be operating in various manners that do not comply with applicable laws and regulations and may therefore be subject to seizures and forfeitures by state and local authorities.

Untapped Markets— This marketplace consists of jurisdictions and locations within the United States where no form of gaming devices (i.e., Class II/Class III) are currently permitted. These locations include race tracks, strip malls, bingo halls, VFW halls, Jewish War Vets, Disabled American Vet facilities and various Native American tribes that have no federal status. We estimate that there are currently several hundred thousand devices in these locations.

Product Offerings

The Company is developing entertainment devices that will appear and play like traditional Las Vegas style slot machines that are legally compliant with state amusement/arcade laws. The Company’s product offerings to the AWP market are designed around proprietary technology licensed from Bally Gaming, Inc., internally developed technology and other acquired technology. Players can accumulate points that can be redeemed for prizes. The player terminals can be configured in a wide range of physical appearances and the games can be easily updated or changed based on a customers needs.

Spectre’s Strategy

The Company’s initial plans include installing its AWP machines in adult amusement arcades, initially in Florida and Texas. The Company has designed and developed and continues to design and develop content, hardware, software, and networks able to provide its customers with comprehensive gaming systems. As opportunities arise, the Company intends to expand into other states and into the charitable gaming market
Research and Development

Our research and development activities primarily focus on the development of new gaming systems, gaming engines, gaming platforms and content, and enhancements to our existing product lines. We believe our investments in product development are necessary to deliver differentiated products and solutions to the marketplace. Once the technological feasibility of a project has been established, the project is transferred from research to development, and capitalization begins. We expect our research and development expenses to grow over the upcoming periods as we continue focusing on product development and adding development staff. Our research and development expense for continuing operations was $361,122 and $0 during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Sales and Distribution

Our products and services are being sold on a lease or revenue sharing basis to game room operators or route operators that place the machines in those locations. We market our products and systems through our internal sales staff and agents. In this regard, we currently employ no sales personnel and instead rely on our executive management to initiate sales.

22

Competition

The market for gaming machines and proprietary systems is intensely competitive. The principal method of competition is the development of exciting and unique game titles, displays and concepts. A portfolio of strong performing games and intellectual property can be a competitive advantage. Other methods of competition include machine quality, sales and service operations, financial strength and product pricing.

In the market for AWP gaming machines, manufacturers and distributors that compete with Spectre include Cadillac Jack, Merit Industries, Texas Gaming Systems, BGI, Inc., Dyna and LabTronics. These competitors have significantly greater financial resources then Spectre.


Our intellectual property portfolio consists of certain co-operative group gaming technology that we acquired through the asset acquisition of Streamline Development Company, Inc. in December 2004. In addition, the Company has been developing software to be used in the AWP market. The Company has been developing its technology in concert with redemption and enabling technology licensed from Bally Gaming, Inc. in May 2005. Our propriety technology, combined with the technology that we licensed from Bally Gaming, Inc. including trademark, image and likeness, other moral rights, and certain other assets make up the bulk of our current product technology. We currently rely and intend to rely in the future on a combination of copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret laws, and nondisclosure agreements to protect our proprietary technology.

The technology licensed from Bally includes the right to use a redemption device computer firmware circuit board, licensed themes, licensed theme materials, certain Bally games and redemption software and technology. Specific applications of the licensed Bally technology, by Spectre, are subject to approval by Bally’s compliance committee.

Most of our products are or will be sold or licensed using our own trademarks and copyrights that we hope will provide product recognition and promote widespread acceptance of our products in the marketplace. Our products may also contain content licensed from third parties, such as trademarks, fictional characters, names and likenesses and /or storylines.

Our ability to enforce our patents, copyrights, trademarks and other intellectual property is subject to general litigation risks. Typically, when a party seeks to enforce its intellectual-property rights, it is often subject to claims that the intellectual-property right is invalid, or is licensed to the party against whom the claim is being asserted. We cannot ensure that our intellectual-property rights will not be infringed upon or that others will not develop products in violation of our intellectual-property rights. Although we have entered into confidentiality, non-compete and invention-assignment agreements with our employees and consultants and otherwise limit access to, and distribution of, our proprietary technology, there can be no assurance that such agreements will not be breached, that we would have adequate remedies for any breach, or that our trade secrets will not otherwise become independently developed or discovered by competitors.

Government Regulation

State law determines the legality of AWP gaming, but tends to be interpreted and enforced at the local, usually county, level. As such, states do not have a defined regulatory agency charged with development of regulations, interpretation and enforcement of laws, or the regulation of business practices. There are no game certification requirements, system integrity testing and certification, or other similar requirements conducted by a state sponsored lab or bureau, nor are there any AWP, redemption or similar qualifying or condition precedent licenses or approvals necessary.

23

AWP systems are generally regulated to have limitations on the nature and the amount of the bet or wager allowed per play, limitations on the value of a prize which may be won with a single wager, and requirements pertaining to the exchange of the win from a game for a physical prize, as well as various other prize limitations.

Each AWP system, and the manner in which the AWP business enterprise is conducted must comply with state law requirements which define what an AWP or redemption game is and how it is to be played. Further, each county police authority or district attorney’s office, as well as other state agencies such as the alcohol or liquor enforcement agencies, has the ability to interpret not only what the law means and how it is to be implemented, but whether the game and redemption system as utilized in public are compliant. Therefore, Spectre intends to work closely with the appropriate agencies in each county in which it distributes AWP units to be sure that the deployed system will be jurisdictionally compliant in each respective county.


As of December 31, 2005, the Company had 10 full-time employees and no part-time employees.

Properties

The Company currently leases 6,114 square feet of commercial office and warehouse space at 1466 Pioneer Way No. 10, El Cajon, California. The Company pays $4,747 per month through May 31, 2006, which is the date such lease terminates. Under the terms of the El Cajon lease, the Company also pays $165 per month for water, sewer and HVAC. The Company has closed this location.

The Company leases 8,800 square feet of commercial office and warehouse space at 7206 East 38th Street, in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The Company pays $3,300 per month for such lease through March 31, 2006, which is the date the lease terminates. The Company has closed this location.

The Company leases 2,114 square feet of space located at 5 Sierra Gate Plaza, Roseville, California, and pays $4,122 per month through August 31, 2006, $4,228 per month through August 31, 2007 and $4,334 per month through August 31, 2008, at which time the lease will expire. This facility houses the Company’s research and development operations.

Finally, the Company signed a lease for 3,117 square feet of office and warehouse space located at 14200 23rd Avenue North, Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Company pays $2,980 per month from March 1, 2006 through December 31, 2007, and approximately $3,080 per month for the remaining term, ending December 31, 2008. This facility has replaced the El Cajon, California and 800 Nicollet Mall, Minneapolis, Minnesota locations and has become Spectre’s headquarters.

The Company believes that these spaces will be adequate for its operations at least for the next year.

Legal Matters

The Company is not a party to any material legal proceedings.

In 1999, the Company’s board of directors adopted, subject to shareholder approval, the 1999 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan (the “1999 Plan”) pursuant to which 400,000 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance. On April 18, 2000, the board of directors approved an amendment to the 1999 Plan to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance thereunder by 200,000. Company shareholders approved the 1999 Plan (and the April 18, 2000 amendment) at the Company’s annual shareholder meeting held on May 23, 2000. Effective upon the Company’s one-for-three stock combination (i.e., reverse split) on December 2, 2003, the total number of shares reserved for issuance under the 1999 Plan was reduced to 200,000. In July 2004, the board of directors approved an amendment to the 1999 Plan to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance thereunder by 100,000, bringing the total number of shares reserved for issuance to 300,000. The shareholders approved this amendment to the 1999 Plan at the Company’s annual shareholder meeting held on August 26, 2004. Under the 1999 Plan, only Company officers and directors may receive options. Furthermore, only non-statutory options (i.e., options other than “incentive stock options” under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) may be granted under the 1999 Plan.

2004 Stock Option Plan

In July 2004, the Company’s board of directors passed a resolution adopting the Spectre Gaming Inc. 2004 Stock Option Plan (the “2004 Plan”). The Company has reserved 2,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the 2004 Plan. The Company’s shareholders approved the 2004 Plan at the Company’s annual shareholder meeting held on August 26, 2004. As of March 15, 2005, 662,500 options have been granted under the 2004 Plan. The 2004 Plan provides for the grant of both incentive and non-statutory stock options. Incentive stock options granted under the 2004 Plan are intended to qualify as “incentive stock options” under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Non-statutory stock options granted under the 2004 Plan will not qualify as incentive stock options. The board of directors adopted the 2004 Plan to provide a means by which Company employees, directors, officers and consultants may be given an opportunity to purchase stock in the Company, to assist in retaining the services of such persons, to secure and retain the services of persons capable of filling such positions and to provide incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts for the success of the Company.

 
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock by the selling shareholders pursuant to this prospectus.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
We are registering the resale of certain shares of common stock offered by this prospectus on behalf of the selling shareholders. As used in this prospectus, the term “selling shareholders” include donees, pledges, transferees and other successors in interest selling shares received from the selling shareholders after the date of this prospectus, whether as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other form of transfer. All costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the shares of common stock offered hereby will be borne by the Company. Brokerage commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, attributable to the sale of shares of common stock will be borne by the selling shareholders.

Sales of shares of common stock offered hereby may be effected by the selling shareholders from time to time in one or more types of transactions (which may include block transactions):

·            
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers
 
·            
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction
 
·            
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account
 
·            
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange
 
·            
privately negotiated transactions
 
·            
short sales
 
·            
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise
 
·            
broker-dealers may agree with the selling shareholder to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share
 
·            
a combination of any such methods of sale, and
 
·            
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
 
The selling shareholders may effect sales of shares of common stock offered hereby at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at privately negotiated prices. Any of these transactions may or may not involve brokers or dealers. Any such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling shareholders and/or the purchaser(s) of shares of common stock for whom those broker-dealers may act as agents or to whom they sell as principals, or both (which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions). The selling shareholders have advised us that they have not entered into any agreements, understandings or arrangements with any underwriters or broker-dealers regarding the sale of their securities, nor is there any underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of shares of common stock by the selling shareholders.

45

The selling shareholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and registered hereby and, if any such selling shareholder defaults in the performance of its secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling shareholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling shareholders under this prospectus. The selling shareholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the selling shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling shareholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling shareholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities, which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

The aggregate proceeds to the selling shareholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them will be the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. The selling shareholders reserve the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering.

The selling shareholders may also resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.

The selling shareholders and any broker-dealers that act in connection with the sale of securities might be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, and any commissions received by such broker-dealers and any profit on the resale of the securities sold by them while acting as principals might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act. In addition, each broker-dealer selling under this prospectus for its own account or the account of an affiliate is an “underwriter” under Section 2(11) of the Securities Act.

To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the name of the selling shareholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

46

We have advised the selling shareholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling shareholders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling shareholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus-delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling shareholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

In some instances, we have agreed to indemnify the selling shareholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus.

We are unable to predict with certainty the effect which sales of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus might have upon our ability to raise additional capital. Nevertheless, it is possible that the resale of shares offered hereby could adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

In connection with the November 2004 Private Placement, the Company engaged Feltl and Company and The Seidler Companies to serve as exclusive placement agents for the units on a reasonable-efforts basis. The placement agents were granted five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 181,143 units at a purchase price of $2.50 per unit (the “November 2004 Agent Warrants”). If Feltl and Company and The Seidler Companies exercise the November 2004 Agent Warrants, they will realize additional compensation. As the NASD deems this additional compensation, the placement agents have each entered into a lock-up agreement with the NASD agreeing that the November 2004 Agent Warrants will not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated or be the subject of any hedging, short-sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of the November 2004 Agent Warrants by any person for a period of 180 days from January 24, 2005, the date of effectiveness of this registration statement. The shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the November 2004 Agent Warrants were not registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or the availability of an applicable exemption therefrom. The November 2004 Agent Warrants contain customary anti-dilution provisions, provisions for cashless exercise, and demand and “piggy-back” registration rights, requiring the Company, under certain circumstances, to register the resale of the shares subject to the Warrants.


Upon completion of this offering and assuming the issuance of all of the shares covered by this prospectus that are issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants to purchase our common stock, the conversion of convertible preferred stock, payment of preferred stock dividends with common stock and the issuance of additional registered shares, there will be 15,941,366 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding. The shares purchased in this offering will be freely tradable without registration or other restriction under the Securities Act, except for any shares purchased by an “affiliate” of our Company (as defined under the Securities Act).

Our currently outstanding shares that were issued in reliance upon the private-placement exemptions under the Securities Act (i.e., those shares issued and issuable in connection with the March 2004 Private Placement, November 2004 Private Placement and the Debt Financings) are deemed “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Restricted securities may not be sold unless they are registered under the Securities Act or are sold pursuant to an applicable exemption from registration, including an exemption under Rule 144. Provided that all of the other requirements of Rule 144 are then satisfied: (i) all of the shares of our common stock that were issued in connection with the March 2004 Private Placement may now be resold resale without registration; (ii) the 200,000 shares of our common stock issued to Games of Chance are currently eligible for resale without registration (subject to volume limitations), and all such shares may be resold without registration on June 16, 2006; and (iii) the 1,811,429 shares of our common stock that were issued in connection with the November 2004 Private Placement are currently eligible for resale without registration (subject to volume limitations), and all such shares may be resold without registration on November 24, 2006.

47

In general, under Rule 144, any person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) including persons deemed to be affiliates, whose restricted securities have been fully paid for and held for at least one year from the later of the date of issuance by us or acquisition from an affiliate, may sell such securities in broker’s transactions or directly to market makers, provided that the number of shares sold in any three-month period may not exceed the greater of one percent of the then-outstanding shares of our common stock or the average weekly trading volume of our shares of common stock in the over-the-counter market during the four calendar weeks preceding the sale. Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to certain notice requirements and the availability of current public information about our Company. After two years have elapsed from the later of the issuance of restricted securities by us or their acquisition from an affiliate, such securities may be sold without limitation by persons who are not affiliates under the rule.

 
General

The Company is authorized to issue an aggregate of 100,000,000 shares of capital stock, $0.01 par value. The Company’s board of directors has authority, without any further vote or action by the shareholders, to designate and issue shares in such classes or series (including classes or series of common stock and/or preferred stock) as it deems appropriate and establish the rights, preferences, and privileges of such shares, including dividends, liquidation and voting rights. The rights of holders of classes or series of common stock or preferred stock that may be issued could be superior to the rights of the common stock offered hereby. Our board of directors’ ability to designate and issue shares could impede or deter an unsolicited tender offer or takeover proposal. Further, the issuance of additional shares having preferential rights could adversely affect other rights appurtenant to the common stock offered hereby. Any such issuances will dilute the percentage of ownership interest of investors purchasing shares in this offering and may dilute the book value of the Company.

The board of directors has previously designated 466,666 shares of capital stock for issuance as “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.” As of the date hereof, the Company has 43,334 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. Upon a liquidation of the Company, the Series A Convertible Preferred shareholders will receive a liquidation preference of $65,000. Each holder of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock may elect to convert all or a portion of their preferred shares into common stock on the terms and conditions set forth in the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation on file with the Minnesota Secretary of State. Shareholders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock currently have the right to convert their preferred shares into an aggregate of 97,798 shares of common stock. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock does not provide its shareholders with any preemptive rights, rights of first refusal, or director-appointment rights.

Common Stock

As of April 24, 2006, there were 13,710,537 shares of our common stock outstanding held by approximately 262 shareholders of record. The holders of the common stock: (i) have equal ratable rights among themselves to dividends from funds legally available therefor, when, as and if declared by the board of directors; (ii) are entitled to share ratably in all of the Company’s assets available for distributions to holders of the common stock upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
 
48

 
Company’s affairs, subject to any liquidation preferences in favor of issued and outstanding classes of preferred stock (including the liquidation preference for shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock); (iii) do not have preemptive, subscription or conversion rights and there are no redemption or sinking-fund provisions applicable thereto; and (iv) are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders. All shares of common stock now outstanding are fully paid and non-assessable.
 
The holders of our common stock do not have cumulative-voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of such outstanding shares voting for the election of directors can elect all of the directors of the Company to be elected.

Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock

The board of directors has designated 30,000 shares of capital stock for issuance as “Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock,” which we refer to in this prospectus as “Series B Preferred Stock.” As of the date hereof, the Company has 7,170 shares of Series B Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. Holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive cumulative dividends at the per annum rate of LIBOR plus 4%, either in cash or shares of common stock (or a combination thereof), on a quarterly basis; however, the Company may issue common stock in lieu of cash to satisfy its dividend-payment obligations only if certain conditions are met. These conditions relate to the Company’s compliance with certain terms of the related Securities Purchase Agreement, the listing and trading of our common stock, the trading price of the Company’s common stock, and certain other conditions set forth in the Certificate of Designation for Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock. Upon a liquidation of the Company, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, prior to any distribution to holders of our common stock, a liquidation preference equal to the sum of (i) the stated value of their shares ($1,000 per share), plus (ii) all then accrued but unpaid dividends. Holders of Series B Preferred Stock may convert all or a portion of their preferred shares into common stock on the terms and conditions set forth in the Series B Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation on file with the Minnesota Secretary of State. The conversion price for their preferred shares is currently $1.60, subject to adjustments set forth in the Certificate of Designation. Shareholders of the Series B Preferred Stock currently have the right to convert their preferred shares into an aggregate of 4,481,250 shares of common stock. The Series B Preferred Stock does not provide its shareholders with any preemptive rights, rights of first refusal, or director-appointment rights.

Debt Financings - Convertible Promissory Notes and Warrants

On May 20, 2004, the Company received a $1,100,000 loan from Pandora in exchange for a convertible promissory note (accruing interest at ten percent per annum ) payable in interest only through August 20, 2004, and thereafter payable in equal monthly installments over the next 15 months. Pandora may convert the promissory note into shares of our common stock at $2.50 per share. Subject to certain conditions and limitations, the Company may make monthly installment payments of note interest and principal, in lieu of cash, through the issuance of common stock at a per-share price equal to 90% of the average closing bid price of the common stock over the 30 trading days immediately preceding the payment date. In connection with this financing, the Company issued Pandora a five-year warrant for the purchase of 200,000 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $2.50 per share. In October 2005, the Company satisfied its obligations under the promissory note in full by converting $200,000 of the balance into shares of our Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock, and a cash payment for the remaining balance. In total, 163,356 shares of common stock were issued to Pandora in connection with payments under the note.

49

As part of the May 20, 2004 financing, the Company agreed to prepare and file a registration statement covering the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory note and exercise of the warrant issued to Pandora on or prior to November 3, 2004, and to use its best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective on or prior to February 1, 2005. Subsequently, the Company entered into a letter agreement with Pandora (and Whitebox, as described below) pursuant to which the deadline for filing this registration statement was delayed until November 30, 2004, and the deadline for effectiveness was commensurately delayed until February 28, 2005. This prospectus is a part of the registration statement which the Company was obligated to prepare and file with the Commission under the terms of the investment agreements involved in the May 20, 2004 financing with Pandora, and it covers all 163,356 shares of our common stock issued upon conversion of the promissory note, and all 200,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon Pandora’s exercise of the warrant issued in connection therewith.

On September 10, 2004, the Company received $1,500,000 from Pandora and Whitebox in exchange for two promissory notes (accruing interest at 10% per annum) secured by the Company’s assets. These promissory notes are payable in interest only beginning in October 2004, and thereafter due and fully payable in March 2005. These promissory notes are not convertible into shares of our common stock. In connection with this financing, the Company issued to each of Pandora and Whitebox five-year warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $3.00 per share.

On March 10, 2005, the Company signed amendments to the two $750,000 secured promissory notes with Pandora and Whitebox. The amendments extended the due date of the notes to June 10, 2005, and permitted further extension by the Company to September 10, 2005. As part of the amendments, the Company agreed to maintain assets whose aggregate value equals or exceeds the principal and interest amounts then owed under the notes. For purposes of valuing the assets for compliance under this provision, the Company’s cash is valued at 100%, the Company’s accounts receivable are valued at 80% and the Company’s inventory and fixed assets are valued at 50% of their book value. As consideration for the amendments, the Company paid Pandora and Whitebox each $18,750 and is amortizing the expense over the extended period. After entering into the amendments, the Company elected to extend the notes to September 10, 2005, and in consideration for the extension paid each of Pandora and Whitebox a 2.5% origination fee on the then-outstanding principal amount of their respective notes.

On September 28, 2005, the Company entered into Forbearance and Extension Agreements with both Pandora and Whitebox which further extended the maturity dates of the two promissory notes originally issued on September 10, 2004 (as amended in May 2005) until September 30, 2006. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company is required to pay accrued interest on the notes beginning on October 10, 2005 and on the tenth day of each calendar month thereafter.

As part of the September 10, 2004 financing, the Company agreed to file a registration statement covering the resale of the shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrants issued to Pandora and Whitebox, on the same terms as those involved in the Company’s investment agreements with Pandora in connection with the May 20, 2004 convertible-debt financing. This prospectus is a part of the registration statement which the Company was obligated to prepare and file with the Commission under the terms of the investment agreements with Pandora and Whitebox, and it covers all 100,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon Pandora’s and Whitebox’s exercise of the warrants issued in connection therewith.

Warrants

In March 2004, the Company completed the March 2004 Private Placement in which the Company issued and sold 1,796,829 shares of common stock, raising an aggregate of $1.348 million in gross proceeds. In connection with the March 2004 Private Placement, the Company engaged Feltl and Company to serve as a non-exclusive placement agent on a reasonable-efforts basis, and pursuant to such engagement granted Feltl and Company a five-year warrant to purchase an aggregate of 83,400 shares of common stock at a
 
50

 
purchase price of $0.75 (the “March 2004 Agent Warrant”). The shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the March 2004 Agent Warrant were not registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or the availability of an applicable exemption therefrom. Nevertheless, the Company granted Feltl and Company piggyback registration rights, in the event the Company prepared and filed a registration statement, covering the resale of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the March 2004 Agent Warrant. The registration statement of which this prospectus is a part covers the 83,400 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the March 2004 Agent Warrant.

In November 2004, the Company completed the November 2004 Private Placement. For each unit purchased in that offering, subscribers received one share of common stock and a five-year warrant to purchase an additional share of common stock at a purchase price of $3.75 per share. In connection with the November 2004 Private Placement, the Company entered into registration rights agreements with the investors pursuant to which the Company agreed to cause shares of common stock comprising the units (including shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants) to be covered by a registration statement effective no later than April 13, 2005. The warrants issued in the November 2004 Private Placement are redeemable by the Company at the price of $.001 per share issuable under each warrant, but only in the event that (i) the average per-share closing bid price of our common stock exceeds $5.00 for any period of 30 consecutive trading days, and (ii) the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants have been registered for resale in accordance with the registration rights agreements. Under the terms of the warrants, the Company must provide holders with at least 30 days advance written notice of any election to redeem the warrants. Nevertheless, until the warrants are actually redeemed by the Company, investors will have the right to exercise their warrants in lieu of redemption.

In connection with the November 2004 Private Placement, the Company engaged Feltl and Company and The Seidler Companies to serve as exclusive placement agents for the units on a reasonable-efforts basis. The placement agents were granted five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 181,143 units at a purchase price of $2.50 per unit (the “November 2004 Agent Warrants”). If Feltl and Company and The Seidler Companies exercise the November 2004 Agent Warrants, they will realize additional compensation. As the NASD deems this additional compensation, the placement agents have each entered into a lock-up agreement with the NASD agreeing that the November 2004 Agent Warrants will not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated or be the subject of any hedging, short-sale, derivative, put or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of the November 2004 Agent Warrants by any person for a period of 180 days from January 24, 2005, the date of effectiveness of this registration statement. The shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the November 2004 Agent Warrants were not registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or the availability of an applicable exemption therefrom. The November 2004 Agent Warrants contain customary anti-dilution provisions, provisions for cashless exercise, and demand and “piggy-back” registration rights, requiring the Company, under certain circumstances, to register the resale of the shares subject to the Warrants.

This prospectus is a part of the registration statement which the Company was obligated to prepare and file with the Commission under the terms of the registration rights agreements entered into with investors in the November 2004 Private Placement, and as requested by the agents under the terms of the November 2004 Agent Warrants, and it covers all 1,811,429 shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants issued to investors in connection therewith, and 36,000 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the November 2004 Agent Warrants issued to The Seidler Companies.

DISCLOSURE OF SEC POSITION ON
INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
 
Section 302A.521 of the Minnesota Business Corporation Act provides that a Minnesota business corporation shall indemnify any director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation made or threatened to be made a party to a proceeding, by reason of the former or present official capacity (as defined) of the person, against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses incurred by the person in connection with the proceeding if certain statutory standards are met. Under the Minnesota Business Corporation Act, the term “proceeding” means a threatened, pending or completed civil, criminal, administrative, arbitration or investigative proceeding, including one by or in the right of the Company. Section 302A.521 contains detailed terms regarding such right of indemnification and reference is hereby made thereto for a complete statement of such indemnification rights.

Article VI of the Company’s articles of incorporation, as amended, and Article VI of its corporate bylaws provide that each Company director and officer, past or present, and each person who served or may have served at the request of the Company as director, officer, employee and agent of another corporation or employee-benefit plan, and their respective heirs, administrators and executors, shall be indemnified by the Company in accordance with, and to the extent permissible by, applicable Minnesota law. Specifically, Company directors will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duty as directors, except for liability for: (i) any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Company or its shareholders; (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith, or which involve intentional misconduct, or a knowing violation of law; (iii) corporate distributions which are in contravention of restrictions in the Minnesota Business Corporation Act, the Company’s articles of incorporation or the Company’s bylaws, or any agreement to which the Company is a party; (iv) violations of Minnesota securities laws; (v) any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal benefit; or (vi) any act or omission occurring prior to the effective date of the provisions in the Company’s articles of incorporation eliminating or limiting director liability. These provisions in our articles of incorporation will generally not limit liability under state or federal securities laws.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised by its counsel that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification is against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
 
 
Federal securities law requires us to file information with the SEC concerning our business and operations. Accordingly, we file annual, quarterly, and special reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC. You can inspect and copy this information at the Public Reference Facility maintained by the SEC at Judiciary Plaza, 450 5th Street, N.W., Room 1024, Washington, D.C. 20549. You can receive additional information about the operation of the SEC’s Public Reference Facilities by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The Commission also maintains a web site at http://www.sec.gov that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding companies that, like us, file information electronically with the SEC.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 

To the Shareholders, Audit Committee and Board of Directors of
Spectre Gaming, Inc.
Minneapolis, Minnesota

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Spectre Gaming, Inc. as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Spectre Gaming, Inc. as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company had net losses for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, had an accumulated deficit at December 31, 2005 and does not have adequate liquidity to fund its operations through out fiscal 2006. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters also are described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

SPECTRE GAMING, INC.
 
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004
 

1. Description of Business

Spectre Gaming, Inc. (the “Company” or “Spectre,” “we,” “us” or “ours”) was incorporated in Minnesota in June 1990 under the name MarketLink, Inc. At that time, the Company provided telecommunications—based business-intelligence services to client end users. In January 1997, the Company changed its name to OneLink Communications, Inc., and later in June 2000, changed its name to OneLink, Inc. In July 2002, the Company ceased operating its telecommunications-based business, and in December 2002 sold substantially all of its assets. In September 2003, the Company adopted a new business plan focused on providing interactive electronic games to the Native American and charitable gaming markets, and in January 2004 changed its name to Spectre Gaming, Inc. In early 2005, the Company began placing its gaming machines on casino floors.

In May 2005 the Company acquired the exclusive license to a proprietary technology (Alpha-AWP) for the development and deployment of casino-style redemption or amusement-with-prize (AWP) games. The Company has begun the development of AWP games and plans to distribute the games to operators at various retail, commercial and entertainment venues in the United States which allow for such devices. In December 2005, the Company made the decision to focus its efforts exclusively in the AWP market.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company had net losses for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, had an accumulated deficit at December 31, 2005 and does not have adequate liquidity to fund its operations through fiscal 2006. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this condition.

The Company, as noted above, is now pursuing business opportunities in the AWP market. To fund these business opportunities, the Company has engaged in debt and equity financing (see Notes 5, 10, 11, and 12). The Company anticipates engaging in additional debt and equity financing in the future. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance the Company will raise the necessary capital to fund its business. In addition, the Company is negotiating to extend the maturity dates of significant debt obligations. There can be no assurance extensions will be granted.

2. Summary of Accounting Policies

Discontinued Operations. In December, 2005, the Company made the decision to exit the markets for it’s Class II and Class III gaming equipment. The Company began efforts to close its facilities in Tulsa, Oklahoma and El Cajon, California, terminate its employees and dispose of its remaining inventory and fixed assets in those markets. In accordance with appropriate accounting rules, the Company has reclassified its previously reported financial results to exclude the results of the discontinued operations and these results are presented on a historical basis as a separate line item in the Company’s statement of operations and balance sheets entitled “Discontinued Operations.” All of the financial information in the financial statements and notes to the financial statements has been revised to reflect only the results of continuing operations.

F-7

Based on discussions with potential buyers, industry operators, sales efforts and limited sales results, the Company determined that the assets of discontinued operations were impaired. The Company recognized impairment charges of $1,361,594 on its gaming equipment in inventory and $907,058 on its previously leased gaming equipment and other fixed assets. The remaining assets of discontinued operations are classified as “Current assets of discontinued operations” and “Other assets of discontinued operations” on the balance sheet. Since the remaining value of those assets was based on limited data and management’s best estimate, the Company cannot assure that it will realize the remaining carrying value of those assets upon their disposition.

In accordance with the provisions of SFAS 144, the Company has not included the results of operations of its Class II and Class III business in the results from continuing operations. The results of operations for this business have been reflected as discontinued operations. The loss from discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, consist of the following:

Operating expenses included in discontinued operations are those costs which directly relate to Class II and Class III operations that will not be incurred in connection with continuing operations.

Revenue Recognition. The Company derives its revenues primarily two ways, through fixed rate leasing and participation arrangements with its customers. Under both arrangements, the Company retains ownership of the equipment installed at a customer site and under the participation arrangements, receives revenue based on a percentage of the hold per day generated by each gaming system, which is generally considered both realizable and earned at the end of each gaming day. The Company accounts for both types of agreements as operating leases.

The Company records amounts being charged to customers for shipping and handling as sales in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue 00-10, "Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs." Shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company are included in cost of goods sold.

In December 2003, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, “Revenue Recognition.” SAB No. 104 sets forth the SEC Staff’s position regarding the point at which it is appropriate for a registrant to recognize revenue. The Staff believes that revenue is realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or service has been rendered, the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. The Company used the above criteria to determine whether revenue could be recognized, and is recognizing revenue in accordance with SAB 104.

F-8

Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company includes as cash and cash equivalents highly liquid, short-term investments with maturity of three months or less when purchased, which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash. The Company maintains its cash in high quality financial institutions. The balances, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.

Accounts Receivable. The Company reviews customers’ credit history before extending unsecured credit and establishes an allowance for uncollectible accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers and other information. Accounts receivable over 30 days are considered past due. The Company does not accrue interest on past due accounts receivable. Receivables are written off only after all collection attempts have failed and are based on individual credit evaluation and specific circumstances of the customer. No allowance was considered necessary at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

The Company extended unsecured credit to customers in the normal course of business.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Inventory. Inventory, which consists principally of gaming products and related materials, is stated at the lower of cost (determined on the specific identification method) or market. At December 31, 2005 the Company had $120,516 of finished goods inventory and $179,493 of spare parts and gaming cabinets.

Prepaid License Fees. Prepaid license fees relate to licenses associated with the themes of certain gaming machines which are licensed from unrelated parties. Under participation agreements and upon the placement of the machines into service, the Company will begin amortizing the licenses over the estimated useful life of the pertinent machines of 3 years. These licenses are associated with Class II and Class III gaming equipment. However, the Company has been negotiating with the unrelated party to apply the prepaid license fees against future amounts due to the vendor from AWP operations. These negotiations are ongoing, but management believes they will obtain this right.

Deposits. Deposits primarily relate to deposits with utility companies and landlords, and deposits placed on corporate credit cards.

Leased Gaming Equipment and Property, Equipment and Leasehold Improvements. Leased gaming equipment and property, equipment and leasehold improvements were stated at cost. Gaming machines placed with customers under participation arrangements are included in leased gaming equipment. Depreciation of an asset is recognized on the straight-line basis over the asset’s estimated useful life ranging from three to five years. Leasehold improvements were amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed when incurred. Sales and retirements of depreciable property were recorded by removing the related cost and accumulated depreciation from the accounts. Gains or losses on sales and retirements of property are reflected in the Company’s results of operations. Depreciation and amortization expense on leased gaming equipment and property, equipment and leasehold improvements was $19,398 and $631 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

F-9

Management reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to its fair value, which considers the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds their fair value. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs of disposal. In connection with the change to focus the business on the AWP market, the Company recorded an impairment of $907,058 for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Technology and Distribution Rights. The Company’s technology and distribution rights relate to a $5,000,000 fee for redemption technology licensed from Bally Gaming, Inc. The technology and distribution rights are being amortized over the five-year term of the agreement. (Note 9)

Debt Issuance Costs. The Company capitalizes debt issuance costs and amortizes the costs over the life of the loan using the straight-line method, which approximates the interest method. The capitalized costs related to the convertible debt investment from Pandora Select Partners LP (“Pandora”) in May 2004 included the origination fee paid to Pandora of $33,000, the $50,000 cash paid to Blake Capital Advisors, LLC (“Blake”), the value of the warrants issued to Blake and $10,000 of legal fees, and are included in other assets in the financial statements. The warrants issued to Blake were valued at $225,000 using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The capitalized costs related to the loans from Pandora and Whitebox Intermarket Partners LP in September 2004 included the origination fee paid of $45,000 and $5,000 of legal fees. The capitalized costs related to the loans from Pandora and Whitebox in September 2004 also included the fee paid in March 2005 of $37,500 and June 2005 of $37,500 to allow the Company to extend the due date of the notes. The capitalized costs related to the loan from Crown Bank in June 2005 included the origination fee paid of $30,000 and the value of the warrants issued to Ronald E. Eibensteiner (the Company’s former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer) and D. Bradly Olah, who became the Company’s President on August 2, 2005, for their personal guarantee of the loan. The warrants issued to Messrs. Eibensteiner and Olah were valued at $578,064 using the Black-Scholes pricing model.

At December 31, 2005 the Company had no unamortized debt issuance costs and at December 31, 2004 the Company had unamortized debt issuance costs of $206,937, classified as other assets on the balance sheet. Amortization of the debt issuance costs for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 was $890,001 and $161,063, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The carrying amounts for all financial instruments approximate fair value. The carrying amounts for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and short-term debt approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The fair market value of the Company’s long-term debt appears to be less than the book value at December 31, 2005. The interest rate on the long-term debt is fixed at 12%. Recent negotiations with lenders as disclosed in notes 16 and 18 indicate the Company may realize higher interest rates on future borrowings.

Research and Development Costs. Costs related to research, design and development of products are charged to research and development expense as incurred. Software development costs are capitalized beginning when a product’s technological feasibility has been established and ending when a product is available for general release to customers. The Company uses the working model approach to determine technological feasibility. Generally, the Company’s products are released soon after technological feasibility has been established. As a result, the Company has not capitalized any internal software development costs, since such costs have not been significant and the products are released shortly after technological feasibility. Research and development expense for continuing operations was $361,122 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

F-10

Net Loss Per Common Share. Basic and diluted loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. Dilutive common-equivalent shares have not been included in the computation of diluted net loss per share because their inclusion would be antidilutive. Antidilutive common-equivalent shares issuable based on future exercise of stock options or warrants , totaling 13,899,804 shares, could potentially dilute basic loss per common share in subsequent years. All options and warrants outstanding were antidilutive for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. (See Note 6)

Advertising Expense. Advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred. Advertising expense for continuing operations was $9,594 and $6,885 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation. In accordance with Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations, the Company uses the intrinsic value-based method for measuring stock-based compensation cost which measures compensation cost as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's common stock at the grant date over the amount the employee must pay for the stock. The Company's general policy is to grant stock options and warrants at fair value at the date of grant. Options and warrants issued to employees are recorded at fair value, as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123 "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation", using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The Company has adopted the disclosure only provision of SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation.”

Employees

The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its stock options and warrants issued to employees. Had compensation costs for the Company's stock options and warrants been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates consistent with the method of SFAS No. 123, the Company's net loss and loss per share would have been changed to the approximate pro forma amounts indicated below:

Non-employees

During the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company has issued options and warrants to purchase 1,516,666 shares and 1,095,000 shares, respectively of the Company’s common stock to non-employees, mostly consultants, with exercise prices ranging from $0.75 per share to $3.30 per share and expiring at various times through June 2014. Pursuant to Emerging Issues Task Force 96-18 (EITF 96-18), “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services,” the Company will value and record an expense related to the options on the earlier of the date a performance commitment is met or the date the performance is complete. The Company recorded an expense of $702,264 and $431,451 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, in accordance with EITF 96-18. During the year ended December 31, 2005, options for 295,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were cancelled.

Income Taxes. The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences attributable to the temporary differences between the financial and income tax reporting bases of assets and liabilities.

Reclassifications. Certain accounts in the prior years financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform with the presentation in the current year financial statement. These reclassifications had no effect on the net loss or shareholders’ equity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In November 2004, FASB issued SFAS No. 151 “Inventory Costs” amends the guidance in ARB No. 43, Chapter 4 “Inventory Pricing,” to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). Paragraph 5 pf ARB 43, Chapter 4, previously stated that under some circumstances, items such as idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, double freight, and rehandling costs may be so abnormal as to require treatment as current period charges. SFAS No. 151 requires that those items be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of “so abnormal.” In addition, SFAS No, 151 requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. SFAS No. 151 shall be effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005, or fiscal 2006 for the Company. Earlier application is permitted for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after the date SFAS No. 151 was issued. SFAS No. 151 shall be applied prospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 151 to have a material effect on its financial statements.

In December 2004, FASB issued SFAS No. 123R which requires companies to recognize in the income statement the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees, but expressed no preference for the type of valuation model. SFAS No. 123R is effective for small business issuers as of the annual reporting periods that begin after December 15, 2005, or fiscal 2006 for the Company. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 123R in its first fiscal 2006 quarter. The impact of SFAS No. 123R for 2006 is expected to be approximately $770,000 based on options outstanding at December 31, 2005 which will vest during 2006.

F-12

In June 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections”, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3. The statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle, and changes the requirements for accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impracticable. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for accounting changes and corrections of errors made occurring in fiscal years beginning after June 1, 2005. The statement does not change the transition provisions of any existing accounting pronouncements, including those that are in a transition phase as of the effective date of this statement. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 154 to have a material effect on its financial statements.

3. Asset Acquisition

In December 2004, the Company signed an asset purchase agreement with Streamline Development Company, Inc. (“Streamline”) whereby the Company acquired all of the assets and intellectual property of Streamline. Pursuant to the agreement the Company made a $20,000 cash payment and issued 70,000 unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock to Streamline. The shares were valued at the trading price of the Company’s common stock on the day the agreement was executed, $2.50 per share, and charged to research and development expense since the technological feasibility of the assets purchased had not yet been achieved. An additional 280,000 shares of the Company’s common stock will be issued to Streamline upon the achievement of certain development milestones. The shares will be expensed as development occurs, and valued at the trading price of the Company’s common stock, on the day the milestone is completed. Streamline is majority owned by two individuals who became employees of the Company in 2004. The Streamline technology relates primarily to Class II gaming products. As such, the in-process research and development charge is classified as discontinued operations in the 2004 income statement.

When the Company acquires technology from another entity, the purchase price is allocated, as applicable, between purchased in-process research and development expense (“IPR&D”), other identifiable intangible assets and net tangible assets. The Company’s policy defines IPR&D as the value assigned to those projects for which related products have not reached technological feasibility and have no alternative future use. The Company has charged to research and development expense the consideration paid to Streamline because the assets acquired had not yet reached technological feasibility.

5. Shareholders’ Equity

Our authorized capital consists of 100,000,000 shares of capital stock. Pursuant to authority granted by the Company’s articles of incorporation, our board of directors, without any action by the shareholders, may designate and issue shares in such classes or series (including classes or series of common stock and/or preferred stock) as it deems appropriate and establish the rights, preferences, and privileges of such shares, including dividends, liquidation and voting rights,

Common Stock

In November 2003, the Company began a private placement which ended in March 2004 (the “Offering”). A majority of the sales of the Company’s common stock occurred after December 31, 2003. In the Offering, the Company sold a total of 1,796,829 shares of its common stock (of which 1,531,989 were sold in 2004) for a per share price of $0.75 (i.e., raising a gross total of $1,347,622, $1,148,996 of which was raised in 2004). The Offering was a private placement made under Rule 506 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company raised funds in this private placement in anticipation of entering into the business of developing, manufacturing, distributing and servicing gaming machines, primarily for the Native American and charitable gaming markets. The Company used an agent for a portion of these sales. As a fee, the Company paid the agent $62,550 in cash which was accounted for as a reduction of gross proceeds, and issued the agent fully-vested five-year warrants to purchase up to 83,400 shares of the Company’s common stock for an exercise price of $0.75 per share. In addition, the Company incurred legal fees and other expenses of $19,407 related to the Offering.

In November, 2004, the Company closed on a private placement (the “Second Offering”) of 1,811,429 Units (“Units”), each consisting of one share of common stock, par value $.01 per share, and five-year warrants to purchase one additional share of common stock at a purchase price of $3.75 per share. The per-Unit price was $2.50 (i.e., raising a gross total of $4,528,573). The Company used two agents in completing the sale of the Units in the Second Offering. As a fee, the Company paid the agents $362,286 in cash, and issued the agents fully-vested five-year warrants to purchase up to 181,143 Units for an exercise price of $2.50 per Unit. In addition, the Company incurred legal fees and other expenses of $70,898 related to the Second Offering.

Preferred Stock

During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company sold 440,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and received net proceeds of $615,133. The preferred stock has voting rights identical to common stock. In the event of liquidation, the Series A Preferred Shareholders receive a liquidation preference. Although no dividends are required with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock, no dividend shall be paid on any shares of common stock unless comparable dividends are paid on the Series A Preferred Stock.

The holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock may elect to convert all or a portion of such shares into shares of the Company’s common stock in the manner set forth in the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation on file with the Minnesota Secretary of State. After adjustment pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation, each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock currently converts into 2.257 shares of the Company’s common stock.

During 2004, holders of 233,333 shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock converted their preferred shares into 526,597 shares of the Company’s $.01 par value common stock. At December 31, 2004, there were outstanding 206,667 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock which were convertible into an aggregate of 466,452 shares of the Company’s common stock with a liquidation preference of $310,000.

During 2005, holders of 163,333 shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock converted their preferred shares into 368,617 shares of the Company’s $.01 par value common stock. At December 31, 2005, there were outstanding 43,334 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock which were convertible into an aggregate of 97,799 shares of the Company’s common stock with a liquidation preference of $65,001.

On October 27, 2005, the Company sold an aggregate of 7,420 shares of Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock, together with five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 4,637,500 shares of common stock at $1.84 per share. In the event of liquidation, the Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Shareholders receive a liquidation preference. The Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred shareholders are entitled to cash dividends, payable quarterly. Under certain circumstances, the Company can pay the dividends with its common stock.

The Company is obligated to pay dividends on the Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock on a quarterly basis, based on a rate per annum equal to the 6-month LIBOR on the day before the quarterly interest period, plus 4%. Under certain circumstances specified in the Certificate of Designation, the Company may pay the dividends with its common stock.

The holders of Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock may elect to convert all or a portion of such shares into shares of the Company’s common stock in the manner set forth in the Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation on file with the Minnesota Secretary of State. After adjustment pursuant to the terms of the Certificate of Designation, the preferred shares are convertible into an aggregate of 4,637,500 of common stock at a conversion price of $1.60 per share.

Of the 7,420 shares of Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock sold, subscriptions for an aggregate of 1,230 shares were accepted, in lieu of cash, upon conversion of $1,230,000 of the principal amounts of nine unsecured short-term promissory notes made to the Company. Sales of the Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants raised an aggregate of $7,420,000 in gross proceeds (which figure includes the conversion of $1,230,000 of principal amount of loans made to the Company) less approximately $615,000 in sales commissions payable in cash. In addition to cash compensation, selling agents received five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 695,624 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.84 per share.

F-15

The Company has determined that the value of the 4,637,500 warrants, using the Black Scholes pricing model, issued with the Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock exceeds the value of the preferred stock. Therefore, pursuant to EITF 00-27, “Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments”, there is no deemed dividend on the embedded conversion feature of the preferred stock.

As a condition of the Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock offering, the Company was required to reserve $75,000 of the gross proceeds to make regularly scheduled interest payments on the Pandora Select Partners, L.P. and Whitebox Intermarket Partners, L.P. notes (see note 11). An additional condition of the Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock offering, the Company agreed to sell its Class II and Class III gaming machines to an unaffiliated person on or before March 31, 2006. The Company is unsure whether it will be able to dispose of the machines on or before March 31, 2006, but does not believe that there will be an effect on the financial statements if it does not.

If a purchaser of the Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock still owns such stock on the 36-month anniversary of the closing date, the Company shall issue such purchaser additional warrants to purchase up to a number of shares of common stock equal to 100% of the stated value of the Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred Stock then held by such purchaser divided by the lesser of then applicable conversion price or the average of the closing prices for the five trading days immediately prior to the additional warrant issuance date, with an exercise price equal to the lesser of (i) the then applicable conversion price, (ii) the then applicable exercise price of any warrants held by such purchaser or (iii) 50% of the average of the closing prices for the five trading days immediately prior to the additional warrant issuance date, subject to adjustment therein

6. Warrants and Stock Options

During 2003, 16,666 five-year warrants were issued to a consultant and none were exercised. The warrants issued to the consultant are earned and vest as the consultant achieves milestones as described in the consulting agreement. Pursuant to Emerging Issues Task Force 96-18 (EITF 96-18), “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services,” the Company has valued and will record an expense related to the warrants as the milestones are achieved. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, no expense has been recorded related to these warrants as no milestones were achieved.

At December 31, 2005, the Company had 10,456,988 warrants outstanding with exercise prices ranging from $0.75 to $3.75. The warrants expire serially through December 2010.

The Company established a stock option plan in 1999 (“1999 Stock Option Plan”) to provide incentives to directors and officers and under which 300,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance. The options can only be non-qualified stock options and are valued at the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant unless otherwise determined by the plan administrator, in which case the option may not be less than 85% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant.

F-16

The Company established a stock option plan in 2004 (“2004 Stock Option Plan”) to provide incentives to employees, directors, officers and consultants and under which 2,000,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance. The options can be either incentive stock options or non-statutory stock options and are valued at the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant. The exercise price of incentive stock options may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock subject to the option on the date of the grant and, in some cases, may not be less than 110% of such fair market value. The exercise price of non-statutory options may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant.

During 2005 and 2004, the Company issued options for 2,005,000 shares of the Company’s common stock outside of the Company’s stock option plans.

At December 31, 2005, the Company had 771,982 exercisable options outstanding with a weighted-average exercise price of $1.87, and a weighted-average remaining contractual life of 7.2 years. At December 31, 2004, the Company had 327,772 exercisable options outstanding with a weighted-average exercise price of $1.00, and a weighted-average remaining contractual life of 8.9 years.

The weighted-average grant date fair market value of options granted to employees during the year ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 was $1.92 and $2.03, respectively.

7. Software

On March 4, 2004, the Company signed an agreement with MET Games, Inc. (“MET”) to purchase certain Linux-based software and technology being developed by and owned by MET for the operation of certain gaming computers and systems. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company made a $250,000 cash payment to MET and issued 800,000 unregistered, restricted shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company intended to use the software as it developed its business opportunities in the Native American Class II and charitable gaming markets.

The Company had the right to terminate the agreement and recover the $250,000 payment and 800,000 unregistered, restricted shares of the Company’s common stock if MET failed to deliver software that meets the specifications detailed in the agreement or in the event that MET failed to provide the software in accordance with the development schedule detailed in the agreement. Despite this fact, due to the development of the software not having reached technological feasibility on the date of the agreement and the $250,000 cash payment being a significant performance commitment, the Company expensed the cash payment and the value of the common stock, $600,000, as research and development expense. For this purpose, the common stock was valued at $0.75 per share, based upon the price of the Company’s then recently completed private placement.

MET is wholly-owned by an individual who became an employee of the Company on March 4, 2004 and is no longer an employee as of March 2006.

On February 3, 2005, the Company and MET executed an amendment to the Software Development Agreement to be effective January 24, 2005. The amendment provides for the Company’s acceptance of MET’s non-conforming delivery of the software in exchange for MET’s reimbursement to the Company of up to $100,000 for all internal and external costs and expenses related to the completion of the software and the Company’s access to MET’s office and warehouse space to facilitate the completion of the software. As of December 31, 2005, $100,000 has been recorded as an other receivable, which is included in current assets of discontinued operations, for expenses related to completion of the software. In connection with the amendment, the Company agreed to release the restrictions on 100,000 shares of common stock immediately and on the remaining 700,000 shares commensurate with revised milestone achievements. The amendment did not change the Company’s ownership rights or limit its risks with respect to the completed software. As a result there were no accounting adjustments or revisions attributable to this amendment.

With the decision to exit the Class II market, the Company ceased to develop on and pursue the use of the MET technology as of December 31, 2005.

8. Distribution Agreement

In June 2004, the Company signed a distribution agreement to become the exclusive distributor of Games of Chance, Inc. (“GOC”). Under the terms of the five-year agreement the Company will issue an aggregate of 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, 50,000 shares of which were issuable upon the signing of the agreement with the remaining 150,000 shares issuable in five 30,000-share installments on each of the five anniversaries of the agreement. The shares issued upon the signing of the agreement were expensed at $100,000, their current value on the date of the agreement. In addition, GOC received an option to purchase 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share. The options vest in increments of 25,000 shares as the Company places or sells 500 GOC machines. Pursuant to Emerging Issues Task Force 96-18 (EITF 96-18), “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling,
 
F-18

 
Goods or Services,” the Company will value and record an expense related to the options as the machines are sold. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, $0 and $4,500 had been recorded for expense of these options. As of December 31, 2005, the Company had placed 54 GOC machines. Upon signing, the Company also paid GOC $15,000 related to prior expenses incurred by GOC on behalf of the Company in 2004.

In connection with the distribution agreement the Company signed a five-year consulting agreement (“Consulting Agreement”) with Barry Quick, the spouse of the President of GOC. The Consulting Agreement calls for monthly payments to Mr. Quick of $10,000 and is terminable, without penalty, for cause or non-performance. The agreement was terminated on October 31, 2005. The Company incurred expense of $100,000 and $75,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

With the decision to exit the Class III market, the Company ceased distributing GOC games as of December 31, 2005.

9. Redemption Technology and Supply Agreement

On May 24, 2005, the Company entered into a Redemption Technology and Supply Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Bally Gaming, Inc., a Nevada corporation.

Under the Agreement Bally granted to the Company: (i) an exclusive license to market and distribute redemption games using equipment containing certain proprietary technology of Bally; (ii) an exclusive license to utilize the technology to develop redemption games and gaming systems; and (iii) a non-exclusive license to use the technology for purposes ancillary to the foregoing (collectively, the “License”). In addition to obtaining the License, the Agreement provides that the Company shall have the right to exclusively license Bally-owned game themes for use with the Company’s redemption games and systems.

The Agreement and the License last for an initial term of five years, but may be extended if the Company meets certain performance targets. Under the Agreement, the Company will pay an upfront License fee of $5 million, payable as follows: $1 million was due on or prior to June 23, 2005; $1 million was due no later than August 15, 2005; and the remaining $3 million was payable pursuant to an unsecured two-year promissory note providing payments in four equal installments on each successive six-month anniversary of the Agreement. The note bears interest at 12% per annum. The Agreement and note were subsequently amended and Spectre paid Bally a total of $2,750,000, plus interest, in 2005. The Company has $2,250,000 remaining due under the amended note at December 31, 2005, and has payments due of $750,000, plus interest, on March 31, 2006, September 30, 2006 and March 31, 2006.

In addition to the License fee, beginning in January 2007 the Agreement requires the Company to pay royalties monthly based on the number of in-service redemption games during each day of the Agreement’s term.

Under the Agreement, the Company will have the right to have Bally provide transition training services so that Company employees may become familiar with the licensed technology. The Agreement also provides fixed pricing for the Company’s (i) purchase of electronic components containing the licensed technology, (ii) purchase of gaming cabinets in which to house redemption games employing the licensed technology, (iii) purchase of materials to convert the redemption games into video lottery terminals and/or Class III gaming machines (i.e., slot machines), and (iv) acquisition from Bally of other services on an hourly basis. The Company recognized an intangible asset representing it rights under the Agreement, which it is amortizing over five years.

10. Convertible Note Payable

On May 20, 2004, the Company received $1,100,000 in a convertible debt investment from Pandora Select Partners, L.P. (“Pandora”). The note was payable in interest only, at 10% per annum, through August 20, 2004, and thereafter is payable in equal monthly installments over the next 15 months. The note is convertible by Pandora into common stock of Spectre at $2.50 per share, and allows Spectre, subject to certain conditions and limitations, to make monthly installment payments with its common stock at a price per share equal to 90% of the average closing bid price of the common stock over the 30 trading days immediately preceding the payment date. In connection with the financing, Spectre paid a 3% origination fee, issued a fully-vested five-year warrant for the purchase of 200,000 shares of Spectre’s common stock at $2.50 per share, and granted Pandora a security interest in the Company’s assets. The gross proceeds of $1,100,000 were allocated between the convertible note and the common stock warrants based on the relative fair values of the securities at the time of issuance. The common stock warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The resulting original issue discount, the fair value of the warrants and the beneficial conversion of the note into common stock as defined in EITF 00-27, “Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments”, will be amortized over the life of the promissory note using the straight-line method, which approximates the interest method. The note is convertible by the holder any time in whole or in part upon written notice to the Company. Such conversion is limited to the extent the holders beneficial ownership interest would exceed 4.99% of outstanding common stock at conversion. In addition, Spectre agreed to file a registration statement by November 3, 2004, which date was extended to November 30, 2004, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, covering the issuance or resale of the shares of Spectre’s common stock which may be issued in connection with the note and warrant issued to Pandora, and cause the same to be effective by February 1, 2005. The Company filed the registration statement on November 30, 2004 and the registration statement was declared effective on January 24, 2005.

(“Pandora”) and the other note was issued to Whitebox Intermarket Partners, L.P. (“Whitebox”). The notes are payable interest only through March 10, 2005, at which time the principal is due.

F-20

 
warrants for the purchase of 50,000 shares of Spectre’s common stock at $3.00 per share to both Pandora and Whitebox, and granted Pandora and Whitebox security interests in the Company’s assets. The gross proceeds of $1,500,000 were allocated between the notes and the common stock warrants based on the relative fair values of the securities at the time of issuance. The common stock warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The resulting original issue discount and the fair value of the warrants will be amortized over the life of the promissory note using the straight-line method, which approximates the interest method. In addition, Spectre agreed to file a registration with the SEC, which was declared effective on January 24, 2005.

On March 10, 2005, the Company signed amendments to the two $750,000 secured promissory notes issued to Pandora and Whitebox. The amendments extend the due date of the notes to June 10, 2005, which date was further extended by the Company to September 10, 2005. As part of the amendments the Company agreed to maintain assets whose value equals or exceeds the principal interest amounts then owned under the notes. For purposes of valuing the assets for compliance under this provision, the Company’s cash shall be valued at 100%, the Company’s accounts receivable shall be valued at 80% and the Company’s inventory and fixed assets shall be valued at 50% of their respective book values. As consideration for the amendments, the Company paid Pandora and Whitebox each $18,750 and amortized the expense over the first and second extension periods, respectively. On September 28, 2005 the Company entered into Forbearance and Extension Agreements with both Pandora and Whitebox extending the maturity dates of the two notes until September 30, 2006. Pursuant to the agreements, beginning October 10, 2005 and on the 10th day of each month thereafter, the Company is required to pay the accrued interest on the notes.

Between September 30, 2005 and October 17, 2005, the Company issued nine unsecured short-term promissory notes to nine separate investors in exchange for a total of $1,030,000. All of the promissory notes accrued interest at the rate of 6% per annum, and became due and payable in full on October 21, 2005. The promissory notes (including accrued interest) were convertible, at the option of the noteholders and subject to certain conditions, into shares of the Company Series B Preferred Stock on or prior to their maturity date. One of the investors is D. Bradly Olah, the Company's President, and another investor is a corporation that is affiliated with Russell C. Mix, the Company's Chief Executive Officer.

In connection with the financing, the Company issued to the investors five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,060,000 shares of the Company's common stock for one dollar per share. The proceeds of $1,030,000 were allocated between the short-term notes and the warrants based on the relative fair market values of the securities at the time of issuance. The warrants were valued using the Black Scholes pricing model. The resulting original issue discount is being amortized over the life of the short-term notes using the straight-line method, which approximates the interest method. The beneficial conversion of the promissory notes into the Company’s common stock was valued using the Black Scholes pricing model, and determined to be zero. The warrants contain customary provisions for adjustment to the exercise price in the event of stock splits, combinations and dividends, and include cashless-exercise provisions. The warrants also contain anti-dilution adjustments to the exercise price and number of common shares issuable upon exercise in the event of certain dilutive issuances of equity securities.

On October 27, 2005, all of the unsecured short-term convertible promissory notes, totaling $1,030,000, were converted into an aggregate of 1,030 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock (see Note 5).

12. Bank Promissory Note

On June 21, 2005, the Company issued a $1.5 million unsecured promissory note to Crown Bank of Edina, Minnesota. The note was due on August 31, 2005 and bore interest at 1% above prime and was paid in full in October 2005. In connection with this loan the Company paid a two percent origination fee, which was amortized from June 21, 2005 until August 31, 2005. The loan was guaranteed by two persons, Ronald E. Eibensteiner (the Company’s former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer) and D. Bradly Olah, who became our President on August 2, 2005. In exchange for their guarantees, the Company issued each of the foregoing guarantors five-year warrants to purchase 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at the price of $2.20, the closing price of the common stock on the date of issuance. The warrants were valued at $578,064 using the Black Scholes pricing model and the value of the warrants was amortized from June 21, 2005 until August 31, 2005 (see note 14). On September 29, 2005 the Company entered into a Forbearance and Extension Agreement with Crown Bank of Edina, Minnesota extending the due date of the $1.5 million unsecured promissory until October 31, 2005.

On October 28, 2005, the Company paid in full the balance of the unsecured promissory note to Crown Bank with proceeds received from the Series B Variable Rate Convertible Preferred offering.

13. License Agreement

On June 30, 2004, the Company signed a three-year non-exclusive license agreement (“License Agreement”) with Bally Gaming Inc. (“Bally”). The License Agreement calls for the Company to purchase up to 3,000 game cabinets from Bally over the term of the License Agreement. Nevertheless, if the Company has purchased at least 70% of its Class II cabinet purchases from Bally during the term, Bally shall waive the 3,000 game cabinet purchase minimum. In addition, the Company was obligated to purchase at least 100 game cabinets from Bally, and incur certain minimum license-fee charges of $187,500, by June 30, 2004. As of December 31, 2005, the Company had not taken delivery of any of the products that include the license fee charges and therefore the minimum license fee paid is included in prepaid expenses at December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004. Upon receipt of the machines that include the license fees and the placement of the machines, through a participation agreement, into service, the Company will begin amortizing the licenses over the three-year estimated useful life of the machines. In an August 12, 2005 letter agreement, Bally agreed to allow the prepaid license to be applied to Class III cabinet purchases. In connection with the termination, Bally agreed to allow the prepaid license fees of $187,500 to be applied to future Class III title purchases. The Company is in discussions with Bally to allow these fees to be applied against future AWP royalty fees due Bally.

14. Related Party Transactions

The Company incurred expenses from corporations, owned by a former director of the Company and employing another former director and former officer of the Company, for rent and consulting services of approximately $149,000 and $102,000 during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

The Company incurred expenses from a corporation, partially owned by the CEO and director of the Company, for consulting services and expense reimbursements of approximately $214,000 and $81,000 during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The Company’s CEO also serves as a director of the corporation.

In February 2004, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with D. Bradly Olah, then a greater-than-five-percent shareholder of the Company. Pursuant to the consulting agreement, Mr. Olah received $12,500 per month for four months (ending as of May 31, 2004) in exchange for general consulting services. On June 1, 2004, the Company entered into a new consulting agreement with Mr. Olah providing for payments of $12,500 per month for a two-year term. In connection with the new consulting agreement, Mr. Olah received options to purchase up to 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $2.15 per share (the fair value of the stock on the date of grant). Beginning on June 15, 2005, the option vests in 100,000-share increments on each June 15 through 2007, and has a five-year term during which the options must be exercised or forfeited. The options were measured on the date performance was complete; until then variable plan accounting was applied using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The options had a value of $640,954 at June 30, 2005, of which $260,519 had been charged to expense through June 30, 2005. Effective as of August 2, 2005, the Company’s board of directors elected D. Bradly Olah as its President to replace Russell Mix, who continues to serve as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.

The option will vest ratably over three years in installments of 166,666, 166,666 and 166,668 shares on August 2, 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively. Additionally, the Company and Mr. Olah have entered into a letter agreement amending an option agreement dated June 1, 2004 which the parties entered into in connection with the Consulting Agreement. Under the letter agreement, the parties agreed to (i) cease the vesting of 200,000 unvested shares subject to the 2004 Option Agreement; and (ii) extend the term during which the vested options subject to the 2004 Option Agreement may be exercised through July 26, 2010 (subject to early termination in the event Mr. Olah ceases to serve as an employee of or consultant to the Company). The Company evaluated the accounting treatment of the options according to Emerging Issues Task Force 00-23 (EITF 00-23), "Issues related to the Accounting for Stock Compensation under APB Opinion No. 25, and FASB Interpretation No. 44". Due to the modified stock options being fully-vested at the time of the modification, there was no additional compensation expense recognized related to the modification.

In exchange for their guarantees, the Company issued each of the foregoing guarantors five-year warrants to purchase 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at the price of $2.20, the closing price of the common stock on the date of issuance.

15. Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The temporary differences principally relate to net operating loss carryforwards and depreciation.

As a result of various equity offerings that occurred previous to 2005, the Company experienced a change in ownership prior to 2005 under the net operating loss limitation rules. In the first quarter of 2006, the Company calculated a preliminary estimate of the net operating carryforward based upon the change of ownership. The net operating loss carryforward of approximately $11,070,000 at December 31, 2005 is based upon this preliminary calculation. The Company’s estimate at December 31, 2005 of the net operating loss and research and development credit carryforwards are significantly lower than previously reported because the Company had not previously calculated an estimate since it experienced a change in control. The new estimate did not result in any change to the Company’s financial statements as a full valuation allowance was provided for against the net deferred tax asset at December 31, 2005 and 2004.

The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty of realizing the related benefits as disclosed above as follows at December 31:

PART II
 
INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
 

Minnesota law permits a company to indemnify its directors and officers, except for any act of dishonesty. The Company has provided in its bylaws for the indemnification of officers and directors to the fullest extent possible under Minnesota law against expenses (including attorney’s fees), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any proceeding, arising by reason of the fact that such person is or was an agent of ours. In addition, the Company has the power, to the maximum extent and in the manner permitted by Minnesota Business Corporation Act, to indemnify each of our employees and agents (other than directors and officers) against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any proceeding arising by reason of the fact that such person is or was an agent of Spectre Gaming, Inc.

The Company’s articles of incorporation limit or eliminate the personal liability of its officers and directors for damages resulting from breaches of their fiduciary duty for acts or omissions except for damages resulting from acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud, a knowing violation of law, or the inappropriate payment of dividends in violation of the Minnesota Business Corporation Act.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any such action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 28. Undertakings

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i)   To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii)  To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

II-7

Provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii) of this section do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form F-3 and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

(i) If the registrant is relying on Rule 430B:

(A)
Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

(B)
Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date; or

(ii) If the registrant is subject to Rule 430C, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

II-8

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
