DOND - Think Red

As far as I'm concerned, this is NO different to Big Reds.

There's 2 different things, someones 4 boxes next to the reels become active for a mystery win, usually feature entry (Not phones).
And a bonus can give 'Knockout' where it takes the lower DOND values.

Other than that, it's EXACTLY the same.

Big reds has been upgraded to £70, so why bother? :S

For some reason that made me chortle... :0)

The board costs on BR £70 (Player) can be huge though and if you have a blue in your box, it's an immediate loss. As you say though 'can' get lucky... I had a GATW on a Player version, but it was from exchanging a cherry win over to the board, not from the specified three phones on win line... It did £96?!

I meant the board is the same, cash zone, feature zone and mega shot zone. :mad: Damn you, eagle eye.

Well...mystery can and does give phones! So keep an eye out for that. COBs are also a bit more generous than Big Reds, but otherwise it's same old cash, same old features etc.

When it's flying it throws the phones (on the winline) at you practically every time the Mystery Win comes in.

I've had it send in Bells from the Mystery Win too, with 'Guaranteed Win' on the turbo gamble to MS, which was a nice touch.

Although they do seem prone for the old skill bonus for no-lose, roll a 12 for 1st red phone malarkey......
Had that sequence 3 or 4 times. Mate got a hold after nudge across the centre line - and MS gave £210.
Good machine ish - but fully computerised and im pretty sure it controls the box a damn sight better than most mechanical deals.

not a huge fan if this. Phones came in almost every board last friday. Had 70 v other box countless times but just wouldnt drop the 70. Should ave avoided phones and played for ms instead.
