It dispenses a packet of blue KP nuts. Didn't you see the a la "barcrest" prize box display at the top of the 9ft machine?

KP nuts is about the level of underwhelment (is this actually a word Istenem?) that I'd expect. On a lucky day, maybe a blazer badge and tie combination pack.

Only when a certain bookmaker had them on super happy demo but playing for real mode lol.

It's an anti climax. There's no fanfare. No firefireworks. Just a small animated lion which roars twenty times.

You can actually buy the machine for less than the value of the jackpot.

Full screen of lions seen in Sega Park Southampton.

DOND what's in your box ?? appaling machine, just appaling, it says something when this piece of shit can stand so far in front of all the other shit versions of this game as a truly dire gaming experience in every sense of the word.

God I miss Fruities in bookies, I just needed to say that.

Who remembers an ACE machine called Twister? One of their newer games. That was dire.

Heh, yup, they had that in a pub in Bexley village. It's also available on the emulators I think. Not the best machine by any stretch of the imagination!

Yeah, that's how I played it. Emulators, bonuses are crap, you'll die first few gambles(on nice numbers) or make your way up to 6 nudges for NO WIN AVAILABLE before facing death on a 3. Music and SFX are boring, only way to Jackpot it is by spinning in the red 7s. Awful machine that should have been given to Red, as they could have done a far better job of it

Bored of the grind.

Another clone of Hot Shot / Caesars Palace but a lot worse. Didn't the flying pig flash or something when a super feature was offered. The only jackpot feature on the barcode was the reverse barcode way which was much harder to get.

Who knows. I just didn't want to play it anymore after a couple emulator sessions. Looks nice, and was a newish Ace, so thought I could enjoy myself. No way.
A lot of newer ACE's were appalling. GI Dough wasn't much better really, getting sent home in a bodybag all too often.

Yes, JPM and companies have really been the worst at making great games and going downhill.
