Stop N Step is on the board isn't it so presume you mean hiddens are shite?

Indeed they are. Nothing worth anything remotely good.

Not seen or played this yet, but even if it is crap as a few of you have said, at least Red have come up with something different, they rarely bring out 'board' style games, usually it's only hi-lo.

My mate who works at Tesco claims they have a Lock n Load out the back. Odd because, A) i wouldnt expect Tesco to have a fruit machine and B) its such an old machine.

However, i doubt he is lying because he is not even a fruit machine player. He doesnt know what he's doing at all, so why lie about it? He only found out the name so he could ask me how to win on it! (He was watching me one time in the pub and was amazed that i used a No Lose bonus on a 11 to turn it into a 12 and then go lower again to get £6 on the cash stack of a Barmy Army. Genius apparently.

played a Snakez and Ladderz today (No Note Ch,) Expect a general release on Sept 1st. (with note ch)

It is still a hi-lo machine in effect, you just have features between the cash values meaning there are a lot of Hi-Lo gambles for tops if gambling from a low cash value.
Played well, block not as bad as show me the Mummy. As I said, More Hi-Lo gambles for tops though, but numbers reasonable, ie lots of 3s and 10s.

Seems to "red lots of features" when due.

Maybe this is due for full release? There's one popped up here now too...

Got this in the local now with note changer. Had a 35 followed by a 70 to make about 45. Seems to like big safes on this, I'm only going to go in on £25's with this in future, if it's not there I'll kill it off.

Played this today for the first time
Not impressed
Ok so its a bit different but its a pain
Managed a £70 from around £60 in, showing early

Dont like the way you go back down the snake one before £35
Think i would rather just lose the gamble it's so annoying
Also loves its safe cash this
Of course there are ways around that though

And whats with the slow mega spin :x

Change in the law MrRed?.....i think (!) all Mega Spins have to be slower now so that you can't do a £20 in a minute a la pulsation. I hate this red to be honest, like you say even if you try and avoid safes it can still stitch you up and drop you onto the snake just before the top. Another one that doesn't really like redding unless something is there, even when blatantly ready i can't remember it going all red with nothing there. One to play if you know its had some gone through, not one you can often get away with a chase from the wrong point!

Had my 1st play also at the weekend. It's a very strange creation from red. Didn't have much trouble with the safes but this seems to not have ant signs. Had a couple of boards that only had the odd red feature and was gambling to a fiver. Took a couple of hiddens as the footy was about to start so wasn't planning on forcing. Took Cash steps which is garbage then it dropped in £15 on nudges. then let me win a hi/lo gamble although it only landed me on a feature so unsure of what block It was at. Anyway force was then on and the end result was 2 flat £35 tops and a bit of afters gave me £85 from around £50 - £60 in.
One thing to note was that it never gave a red board. Even when £15 was on nudges it only changed 5 features to red.
The 2nd top went round the houses to get also. Nudge win £7 2 hi/lo gambles to reach £10 next gamble down the snake to £3, 2 more gambles to get a ladder upto the feature before the last snake then move straight to the S & L Streak.
I's say your spot on Matt. 1 to play on a saturday or sunday morning if full.

Heh - had my first (and quite possibly last!) go of this at the weekend. Those snakes are complete gits!!! I rolled £60 in for a £70 top, although could've collected the £35 after £20 in. Grr. lol

New Reds coming out = Beware

Stick to your old reds and you can't really go wrong

Matt Vinyl · Post by **Matt Vinyl** » Sun Nov 11, 2007 7:14 pm

Agreed!

Invincible
Vortex
Holey Moley

Are the ones available to me at the moment, and although they're not 'that' old, they're still better than the newer stuff...
