Anybody have any info on this guy?

It's called "The Hunter" and it's a bingo machine.

The owner has asked me to try and fix it for him but I know nothing about EM stuff.

Let alone any info on the machine itself.

A bingo would be a hell of a way to learn about them. You'll definitely need the schematic.

Who makes it?
 
Bingo guy here.
It's not a bingo but they ARE gambling games.
Believe they were produced to get around state laws that banned slot machines.
Likely made by Bally.
Small footprint is nice and many are very attractive. (Super Circus was one I almost bought for those reasons).
They are not very fun.

You pretty knowledgeable on repair and how they work?
 
On Bally bingos I'm rarely stumped - but never worked on any of these flash games.

The very few that I've inspected the internals of - appear to just have a mixer, a few relays, a couple of steppers, a reflex unit (I think), meters and a replay counter. (Rather empty I thought).

All bingos have a mixer (which VERY VERY rarely gives any trouble ... ever) but they have a way more internal units than any other coin-op games I've ever encountered.

I'm guessing a slow, careful shotgun cleaning/checking/detailed inspection shop-out would likely get her going even if you're unable to locate a schematic ... (if nothing's been removed that is).
