its a clone off arabian nights, neptunes treasure and red hot knights, just force it for a j/p if its backing, [next board after j/p flashes] your refill key should work. if you aint got a key give it 20 all at once and listen for the drop. If it dont drop just collect all your wins [you should get 15/20] its very easy too play with no skill involved. i still had one off these on the go up until last year, a very good m/c in my opinion. you wont miss the IM it flashes continuously.

yer i checked this machine with my refill key and instead of saying the normal 100 x (whatever) it said (100p balance 90) does this mean its 90 light or 35 light?

the one i used too play if it said 125 then its full, but on the newer crests it will say 0 if its full. so i would say yours is 35 light. i would be careful because if someone has rolled if for 50 [i'm assuming its 25 j/p] and then its took 15 back one day then 30 the next your gonna force it 2 days after a roll. on the other hand you could of had a bank builder on it build a 35 bank.

i've had a 50 roll of 5 in and i've also put 50/60 in for flat 25, timing is key once you get your first roll i would leave it for 6/8 days [depending on location and how busy]

just too add a few more things you CANNOT lose on 2's or 11's when gambling the right way, 3's and 10's are always worth a gamble but CAN lose.

also with your knockouts [top middle] you shoot from were you are on the cash/feature trail for example if your on £8 then you need two cash knockouts for jacky.

also the 5th feature is called 'nudge spinner' it offers nudges and tells you what win is there. if it starts £2 then £3 then £4 it will proceed to j/p. dont forget too press collect on the j/p. it might auto collect but i've never risked it.

cheers eddie thats been well helpfull. im gonna try play it tomoro. one more question though, are there any quick tricks of getting feature boards on this cos i find that they cost a lot, so maybe im not playing them the right way? also u got any idea where i can get the reel bands for this.

I wish my local pub got some classic machines in like this, still one in a local arcade at 10p £5. Really good game this one, will probably exchange it for my barcrest revolution some day. Out of interest do the big pub chains ever get older machines in? All the pubs in my area just have new test machines

the board costs wot it costs, there's no quick fix too get a board as far as i'm aware. just brutal force with this one.

i would'nt bother with a reel band just get your head down too the screen you can see the parrots clearly.

the nudge spinner trick might come in handy cause it throws this in anytime :wink: happy slotting.

I am sure it has to hit the £5 (so £2,£3,£4,£5) before it is the guranteed jp feature.

I swear I remember once playing in Chelmsford and I got £2,£3,£4 and thought sweet I have got it but the next offer was £1????
