Dough Ho Ho
Usual bellfruit shite! Has replaced a Bobby Dazzler in a pub I visit every now and again - first time i went in I put £9 through it for one board which offered £1.60 before killing me.
Decided to have another go today - after £9 in got 1 board which killed me again offering a quid, and finally got another board £11 later - got a bonus which went on a trail runner kind of thing (wasnt its actual name), and lit up all of the mixed swords at the side for the lowest of the 3 streaks. took this, which went for £9. Couple of quid later, got back on and got onto the top feature - took £5 repeat which didnt repeat.
All in all, only about 6 or 7 quid down today - but it's just a completey shite machine IMO - long times without getting a board, boring gameplay, symbols as oppose to a trail entry (personally dont like um) etc etc. Anyone else ever played this?
Oh, and theres some random trail along the bottom with one of every symbol on the reels on - if you get a symbol on the reel it lights up, often theyll then hold and presumably the idea is to get all of the symbols in the trail lit up. But what the hell happens then????
Edit: Just been on the BFM website and it turns out its their newest machine. I'm having second thoughts about it now - there could be some interesting gameplay in it, and something is making me want to have another crack at it and see how it plays. I keep thinking that maybe it isn't as bad as I first thought. Then that one thought keeps popping into my head....it is a sodding bellfruit, after all!!

If you fill the fruits it awards Super Start I think.
Agree with you about the feature entry, it seems to take £7 - £10 regular to get the first feature entry. Will block the Red swords all day until ready. Find that the super board will let you gamble quite high most of the time. Still a Bell Shite at the end of the day though.

The blocks are pretty horrendous - the pattern of movement round the board starts to become boringly obvious - 7, 9, 7, 9, 7, 9, 7, 9.... filling all-but-one of the red swords in, followed by the useless 'Message In a Bottle' telling you what the 'Sink or Swim' will award (ie. a quid) and then death.Stopnstep wrote:Agree with you about the feature entry, it seems to take £7 - £10 regular to get the first feature entry.

On the top board it'll let you gamble to everything except JP by rolling a succession of 3s and 10s. And then kill you!
It can play similar to Pick Yer Pesos - in that it *can* do successive Mega Streaks, but the streak never seems to be as big.
Given that this machine has replaced a Cobra Cabana, I'm not too happy.
This machine may at times offer a choice where the player has every chance of bankruptcy
Played one yesterday, £2 for a board, wasn't offering much, hit the Sink or Swim button - landed on Mega Streak for a nice £38. It was obviously good from a £1 in but at the same time, annoying in that is how BFG are making gameplay at the moment. Its almost the only way 2 play them cos by forcing you are almost onto a loss every time unless one does its annual streak....
