Dunno who makes these machines, but it has a tilt alarm which is the LOUDEST alarm Imaginable. It went off once, and when I was playing VIU Streak +Add Again, then Extra life (in the same red board)

Few nudges, Red Boost, Got a trial shot, then as I was about to press guess what happened!!
I almost shot through the ceiling
the mega Streak gave £16, they are generally very good on these!
ps - I do play the 10p machine occasionally, not bad entertainment and usually profit but very little. But that alarm! grrrrrr, sometimes goes off randomly

Not someone like 'Comptons Liesure' is it? Used to always play these (and the 2p variety - lol) when at the seaside with me' nan!
Trail shot on VIU etc is a git of a bonus sometimes... Never miss any other skill based bonus more... :x

I cant rememeber who makes the machine, but it has 10p coins to knock off, and it also has tokens which if you get them offers a super spin on a wheel at the top. £5 JP..
To be honest it did me a favour today. Taking £16 mid afternoon killed the machine slightly, I returned tonight and got £50 from £30. Played it well, eg hit all my trial shots and used the red boosts well (I know this is luck, but using them with the right numbers as backup if it went '1 over'!)
That alarm is soooooooooo loud though, I properly HIT myself! thats S and HIT!

Re the red boosts....you should only really use them when you are 2 above the bonous. That almost guarantees a red board. Using it on square 14 nearly always stops 1 short!

yeah, I only use them from there or 3 from the bonus.
They can go up as much as they wish though (usually if the machine is playing well)
