Sex And The City Fabulous


IGT's Sex And The City Fabulous:  is a five reel, 40 pay line, penny video slot. The game has a max bet of 300 credits.  The game also comes equipped with the IGT MegaFX Surround Chair, with powerful speakers and vibrations.

Base Game:

This sequel to last year’s popular Sex And The City video slot reprises all of the features that made the first slot popular, along with a few new additions. Sex And The City Fabulous is a MultiPLAY video slot, meaning there are four reel-sets on the screen. You first must choose your wager, to activate from one to all four reels, resulting in four games playing simultaneously on each spin.

The new feature of this version is the addition of IGT’s Tumbling Reels. In this setup, when there is a winning reel combination, those symbols disappear and a new group of symbols tumble into place. If those symbols create another winning combination, those symbols disappear, repeating the process until there are no winning combinations on the screen. This is the first MultiPLAY game to employ this feature.

Bonus Rounds:

When bonuses occur, the full screen fills up with the bonus sequence. In this version, there are nine total bonus events, with four of them corresponding to the main characters in the TV show, Carry, Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda. You play as one of the characters, which affects the symbols and backgrounds on the reels according to which character you select.

Actor Chris Noth again did the voice-overs for the game as Mr. Big, hosting the bonus rounds, which include four new bonuses

  • Charlotte’s Gallery
  • In The Bag
  • All That Shimmers
  • and of course, a Shoe Bonus

The game also features five progressive interactive bonuses leading to one of the jackpots. With a top award that resets at $50,000

Charlotte's Gallery: displays paintings in an art gallery to select from to be awarded credits

In the Bag: you select from purses for big wins and surprises.

Shoe Bonus: again you must select from varying pairs of shoes to be awarded credits. This bonus has the potential for large credit pay outs.

All That Shimmers: the tumbling reels feature to increases your winnings in this free spins bonus, where pink diamonds fill bracelet holes awarding multipliers and additional free spins.

Blackbeards Treasure

 

American Gaming Systems Blackbeard's Treasure is a five reel, 27 line, video slot, available in 1,2 and 5 cent denominations.
The primary game math is unique, and is what game designer Olaf Vancura calls a "What You See Is What You Get" game. Each of the 5 reels are not weighted and each symbol on the reel is equally likely to appear, regardless of their value or pay out.

The base game utilizes AGS's trademark "Lock and Bump" feature, which adds both wild symbols and the chance at triggering more of the bonus events.

Bonus Rounds:

Free Spins: Three scattered map symbols trigger this round, but the number of free spins is dependent on the number of symbols that trigger it. When map symbols land, they lock in place and become wild. After any additional win is paid, all five reels bump downward. If at least one bonus symbol bumps to a payline, the whole process starts over again, allowing up to five triggers for a maximum of 21 free spins.

Sink the Ship: Blackbeard appears and orders all ship symbols on the reels to be fired upon. Cannons pop up from the bottom of the screen and blast away at the reels. Any missed symbols are turned wild for the next spin.

Wheel Feature: Another departure from the standard weighted reels is the prominent top box bonus wheel, which also features equally weighted slices and therefore an equal chance of being awarded a Blackbeard prize or bet multiplier.

When the mermaid appears on the third reel it activates the wheel feature. All but six of the slices on the wheel are multipliers, up to 100x, the other six are Blackbeard awards. If you hit a Blackbeard wedge the Hyper Wild Super Spin is triggered and you play out your spins on a new set of red bonus reels, one which is completely wild.

Jackpot Treasure Bonus: This is triggered when you hit symbols on any spot on the reels that contain the letters to the word 'Bonus" When the entire word is completed, you are given the chance to pick 5 from treasure chests, each relating to one of the progressive jackpots, which reset at the following:
Plank Walker: $500
Deck Swabber: $900
Navigator: $1000
First Mate: $2,250
Captain: $2,500

Bonus Rounds:

This slot is all about bonus games and features 2 interactive bonuses to provide you with a fully immersive experience where a large element of control is felt. The bonus rounds are triggered randomly and you are given the option of playing the Briefcase Bonus or The Experience.

Briefcase Bonus: This is the whole reason for playing this game. Depending on the line configuration you are playing, 10 or 20 briefcases appear on the main video screen. You are then shown the credit amounts available in all of the cases and they are then closed and shuffled. You then must pick one as your case and the rest is just like the show.

The Experience: In this bonus you are given the opportunity of winning one of the two progressives. You are first offered a credit amount that is midway between the two progressive jackpot amounts. Picking No Deal will mean you are awarded either the higher or lower amount. This is a 50/50 proposition that really adds a level of excitement and interactivity.

The Game of Life


WMS's The Game of Life: is a five reel, 17 line, penny video slot with a 40 credit minimum and a max bet of 400 credits. The game is a wide area progressive, meaning the jackpots are linked over several properties and each bank is setup as a 4 player community slot.

Base Game:

When you first sit down at the terminal, you are given the choice of selecting your character details, from male or female and the choice of 6 different career options. These selections will become important later and impact the amount of credits you can win in the big event community bonuses.

Game of Life Pay table:




In the Game of Life, the playing screen is split in two.  The bottom is where you will play the base game and the top is where the "Bank of LIFE" side game resides.  Here you have 4 potential outcomes.    The more difficult the outcome is to achieve, the higher the bank accrues and pays.

  • Purple is awarded every time you have a winning payline in the base game
  • Blue is awarded every time you have 2 or more wilds on reels
  • Green is awarded every time you have a 5-of-a-kind
  • Yellow is awarded every time you have 5 jets on a payline
You can also win more than one of these at a time.  For example, every time you are awarded the yellow bank jackpot, you will also win the green & purple bank jackpots.  That's because 5 jets on a payline is also a 5-of-a-kind and a winning payline.

You can also increase the amount of each individual color bank jackpot every time a white arrow appears on line one and on of the four colored arrow appears on line five.  Each color arrow with increase the corresponding color bank's jackpot amount until it is won or until a white arrow appears on line one and a "Be Back Soon" symbol appears on line five.  This will reset all the the color banks.

Bonus Rounds:

Free Spin Bonus: 3 or more spinner symbols (like the ones from the board game) on any reels trigger this bonus. You are automatically awarded 10 free spins, with the ability to win indefinite sets of free spins.
During the free spin bonus, the Bank of Life pay table amounts can increase and pay out, but the Be Back Soon symbol will not appear during the spins. As an added bonus, the arrows appear more frequently than they do in the base game.

Big Event Community Bonuses: Are triggered by each base game bet, which awards 7 seconds of bonus eligibility. Faster play or higher bets will award eligibility time and larger big event multipliers.  As an average however, the community bonuses randomly trigger every 3 minutes.

Firstly, the Life spinner appears on the overhead screen and spins to determine if a random credit prize is to be awarded, or if 1 of 3 Big Event bonuses is triggered.

If a credit award is hit, players watch as the car moves around the Game of Life board and stops on the corresponding tile. If you are playing as that career choice, you are awarded a large credit prize and all other players are awarded a smaller win.

Pay Day Bonus: All players in the big event are directed to the overhead screen and are shown a bank. The more pegs that enter the bank, the more credits you receive. Special pegs will increase the credit meter faster.

Career Day Bonus: Here is where your earlier career pick plays in. One of the six possible careers is randomly chosen.  Everyone playing will win a credit prize at the end of the bonus.  The person with the career matching the one that is randomly chosen is awarded a higher credit amount than the other players.


Speed Spin Bonus:  You receive 7 initial spins on the Game of Life spinner.  You have 10 possible outcomes.  Each outcome either increases the value of prizes (ie house, car, etc), awards more spins or awards 1 or all of the available prizes. This is the highest paying bonus in the game.

Progressive Award: Is triggered when you hit 5 Progressive symbols on the first pay line when playing max bet. This is a wide area progressive jackpot that resets at $201,000

Epic Monopoly



WMS Gaming’s: Epic Monopoly is four, 5-reel, 80 line video slot with a 50-credit minimum and a max bet of 1,500 with a top jackpot of 30,000 credits.  It features a vertical 32-inch top screen and is the first premium slot from WMS gaming to feature the Super Multi-play base game.  Unlike most multi-game slots, WMS gaming’s minimum bet allows you to play all 4 games

In the base game, Bonus and Wild symbols replicate from the main reel to the 3 smaller reel sets. 

The Epic Multiplier is randomly triggered and can award up to a 5x multiplier on each reel.  Mr. Monopoly appears at the top of the screen, reaches into his hat and tosses out Monopoly Money with multiplier values on them.  If you receive a multiplier on the main reel, it will multiply any multiplier awarded on the smaller reels, up to 25x.  Example, you were awarded 2x multiplier on the 1st mini reel, then a 2x multiplier on the main reel, you’ll get a 4x multiplier on the 1st mini reel.

The Epic WILD feature is also triggered randomly and award up to 5 wild reels on each reel set.  Again, Mr. Monopoly appears at the top of the screen, this time activating an electrically power source of some kind thereby effecting the reels.  WILD reels awarded on the main reel are replicated to the 3 smaller reel sets

Bonus Rounds

Epic Wheel Bonus is triggered when 3 or more bonus symbols appear on any reel set and award 1-4 spins on the Epic Reel.  1 spin on the wheel is awarded to each reel set with 3 or more bonus symbols.  The wheel can award credits, a respin at 2x, “Epic Chance”, “Epic Free Spin” and “Around the Board” bonuses.

Epic Chance Bonus has you pick 1-5 chance cards for credit prizes, 25 epic free spins, 10 dice rolls around the board or up to a 5x multiplier and an additional pick

Epic Free Spin bonus gives you 5, 10 or 25 free spins.  You can also win additional spins during the free spin round

Around the Board Bonus allows you to move Mr. Monopoly around the game board through awarded dice rolls.  First you spin the wheel to determine how many rolls you’ll get on the playing board. Depending on where you land, you will be awarded multipliers or additional mini games. 

To roll the dice, you simply touch the dice on the screen.  When you land on a property, you’ll get to pick from 5 property cards to determine your prizes, which consist of credits, multipliers and/or extra rolls

If you land on a Railroad, you get to pick from 4 different colored trains, which will award either credits, multipliers, extra picks and/or extra rolls

If you land on the Electric Company, you watch Mr. Monopoly’s dog Scotty run in a hamster wheel to determine what your credit award will be.

If you land on Water Works, you pick between 3 different water valves, which will award credits and/or additional rolls
