The theme of Advance to Boardwalk is a carnival and players can choose to visit during the day or at night, in two separate slot machines. Although the artwork and symbols differ between the Day and Night versions, the game play is the same for both.

The carnival theme extends through the entire slot. The symbols on the reels include traditional carnival food like popcorn, pretzels, carnival rides and games and the characters from the Monopoly game including Mr Monopoly and Scotty the Dog.

Base Game:

Three or more bonus symbols in the Day or ticket to ride symbols in the Night theme trigger the Free Spin Bonus. You're awarded 10 free spins for three scattered symbols, 15 free spins for four and 25 free spins for five symbols.

You get to experience the climbs and drops as the car twists and turns.  The ride continues through all of the free spins.

Bonus Rounds:

The game has 6 bonus games that can be triggered randomly or in the case of the progressive jackpots, are based on line pay combinations.

Bell Ringer Wild Bonus: is randomly triggered at the start of any spin. The announcer's voice calls out "Advance to Boardwalk!" and while the reels spin, Mr Monopoly strides along the boardwalk until he reaches the Bell Ringer booth.
