It can be a right pig of a machine.

The best feature in the feature shots is Arachnaphobia, which is the Evil Streak/Mining Mayhem/Jack Potter/Swinging Streak equivalent.

Generally speaking, the features with long names are half decent whereas the others don't even need a second glance.

I think it's one of those machines that can be incredibly irritating. From what I understand the best way to play is to just keep kicking it, rip off the notechanger and try and boot your way into the box. Putting coins into the slot is usually a highway to stress and annoyance.

Also continued swearing, moaning, banging and bashing of buttons and glass comes as standard.

I've never taken it. But the equivalent feature on the other clones, when red, would give anything from JP to £50.

I found out that the features with the bigger names are always good,

It seems to be a bigger style of lettering.

Not having any money to insert is a good reason to have stopped playing, yes.

In a nice way, I really hope you live near me and are happy to top my machines up like that :)

I always thought 'Money Spinner' was the better feature on this one? Purely because I've 'never' had it offered, and it's offered me Arachnophobia (both normal and red) quite a few times. :? :

This is probably one of the worst 'clones' of this type. I don't like the cash stack approach of the middle board - which should at least start at where you gambled to on the turbo; exchange over to the board at a tenner, get into the middle board and get a few +1 cashes that take you to £2? Grr...

Plus, extra life is usually a magnet to the game over square.

There's two of these near me, and I had a nightmare on one a few weeks ago, then a reasonable result on t'other.

Not going to bother any more though, too risky... ;)
