Hi Bruce.
Thanks for going through the website. All of the small boards and games are powered by EM pinball transformers that are either off camera or hidden behind other, more interesting mechanisms. The clock has a transformer added in the head to drive the EM devices and a wall wart to drive the arduino.
All of the small boards have a screw terminal block in each of the back corners. 24v and 6v busses run between the terminal blocks on each board with fuses for the devices on the board. A pair of 2 conductor wires runs off the board from the back left corner to connect to the neighboring board. The idea is that each of the small boards is self contained and modular so they can be strung together in any order in an arbitrarily long string. On one end is a transformer with a matching terminal block that drives power to the whole string.
Here's a closer look at one board tied to a transformer.

When they're set up at a Maker Faire or other venue I usually string 4-6 boards together on each transformer, depending on the layout of the tables. The modular design allows me to group them any way I want, or to remove one if there's a problem. If you do an image search on google for "fun with pinball" (in quotes) you'll find photos of what it looks like in public.
The games all have their own transformers built into the game. In fact the horse race and baseball games each have two transformers because I need 6v, 24v and 50v to drive parts from various manufacturers. Each of the games also has a terminal block so I can drive some of the small boards from them if I need to.
