American Dream (アメリカンドリーム?) is a casino game developed by C-Dream for the Famicom that was published by Coconuts Japan in 1989 exclusively in Japan. It is the third gambling sim game from Coconuts Japan (a Japanese game publisher that also produces slot and pachinko machines) to feature their character Pachio-kun, and is considered a spin-off from the Pachio-kun franchise.
Pachio-kun is a sentient pachinko ball who is compelled to find other pachinko balls, though he occasionally frequents pachi-slot machines (or just plain slot machines in this case). Pachio-kun takes a convenient helicopter ride from Tokyo to New York to earn lots of money from their casinos. The player must earn money in order to become the wealthiest gambler in the world.
The player's goal is to access each district of New York (in order: Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx, Manhattan and finally over state lines to New Jersey) via the rainbow bridges that separate each district, and these bridges all require hefty tolls that Pachio-kun must raise at the casino. In addition, the game has a few adventure game elements, tasking Pachio-kun with finding objects to proceed with the game: the first such object is a pass to get into the casinos. The vast majority of the gameplay are the slot machines, however.
Despite the American theme, this game never left Japan. An English language translation was made in 2007 by a ROM hacker who goes by the nickname of "Pale Dim," allowing players in English-speaking countries to better understand the game. One of the changes made was to change the explosion sound from the Japanese Bom to the English Boom. It can be found here.
