-
- The "BETTER THAN NEVADA SLOTS" games share the same general look and
- feel. There are a few game-specific differences, but not many.
-
- All Things In Common:
-
- KEYBOARD:
- F1 -> Press the F1 key at any time to display the Help screen.
- F2 -> Press the F2 key at any time to view the Top-Ten list.
- F4 -> Press the F4 key to move your winnings from the Credits box to
- the In-Your-Pocket box. This is called "cashing out", and will
- happen automatically whenever you have nothing In-Your-Pocket
- when you try to bet a coin. If you have run out of money, none
- in the Credits box and none In-Your-Pocket, the game is over.
- F5 -> Toggles Sound on or off. That is to say, if the sound is on,
- pressing F5 will turn it off; if it is off, pressing F5 will
- turn it on.
- SPACE -> Pressing the SPACEBAR will bet one coin. From 1 to 3 coins may
- be bet a time. All payoffs relate to how many coins you had
- bet at the time. For example, if you bet 3 coins you will win
- 3 times more than if you bet only 1 coin.
- ENTER -> Pressing the ENTER key will "pull the handle" and start the
- reels spinning. You must have at least 1 coin bet before you
- can do this, however.
- ESC -> Use the ESC key to quit the game and put it away.
-
- MOUSE ("Hot-spots"):
- F1 box -> Located in the lower right corner of the screen. Click any-
- where in this area to bring up the Help screen.
- F2 box -> Also located in the lower right corner; clicking here will
- display the Top-Ten list.
- CASH OUT -> Clicking on the "button" labeled "CASH OUT" does the same as
- pressing the F4 key.
- SPIN -> Clicking on this "button" causes the reels to spin without
- pulling the handle.
- QUIT -> Clicking on this "button" does the same as pressing the ESC
- key.
- COIN SLOT -> Click anywhere on the coin slot area to bet a coin.
- HANDLE -> Click anywhere in the area of the handle to pull it.
-
-
-
- Game specific variations or additional functions:
- All BONUS Games:
-
- The Bonus option built into some of the "Better Than Nevada Slots"
- adds an extra dimension of risk and reward. Whenever you have a
- winner in the Bonus games, you are given a choice of playing the
- Bonus or not. If you decide to play, you are risking the amount
- that you have just won on the out-come of one spin of the Bonus
- reel. There are three possible results: the first is that, if the
- winning symbol appears, you will double the amount that you had
- gambled, the second is that, if the "lose-it-all" symbol appears,
- you will lose all of what you had just won, and the third possible
- result is that, if the reel shows a "blank", nothing at all happens,
- and you get to keep the original amount that you had won. So, with
- the Bonus option, you have a 1-in-3 chance of doubling your winnings,
- but you also have a 1-in-3 chance of losing it.
-
- KEYBOARD:
- Y,y -> In any of the games that have the Bonus feature, whenever
- you have a winner and are presented with the Bonus option,
- you can press the "Y" key to indicate that you want to
- play the Bonus.
- N,n -> Whenever you have a winner and are presented with the Bonus
- option, you can press the "N" key to indicate that you do
- not want to play the Bonus, but would rather just keep the
- winning amount.
-
- MOUSE:
- YES Button -> Clicking on the YES "Button" whenever you are given
- the choice of playing the Bonus will indicate that
- you want to play the Bonus.
- NO Button -> Clicking on the NO "Button" will indicate that you do
- not want to play the Bonus.
-
- All "PICK-YOUR-LUCK" Games:
-
- In the "Pick-Your-Luck" games there is no ordered value structure
- for any of the symbols used in the game. Instead, you get to choose
- any one of the game's symbols to be the "high-payoff" winner, and
- you can change it at any time before the next roll of the reels,but
- only after you have bet at least one coin. In the payoff section of
- the slot machine, at the top of the screen, all the symbols used in
- the game are displayed. These are the symbols that you can choose
- from. To the left of the slot machine's reels is a box labeled
- "Current Choice" that displays the symbol that the machine will
- recognize as the "high-payoff" winner. This is what you change when
- you select any of the eight symbols.
- (NOTE: The LUCKY TROLL "Pick-Your-Luck" games vary slightly from the
- form outlined above in that your choice is limited to one of the four
- Trolls. The other four symbols used in the Troll games DO have set
- values.)
- (NOTE 2: Also, in the ZODIAC games you, of course, have 12 choices.)
-
- KEYBOARD:
- Number keys "1" through "9","0","-","="
- -> In the area of the screen where the symbols are displayed,
- they are numbered from left-to-right and from top-to-bottom,
- with the upper left-most symbol being number 1. Using the
- number key that corresponds to the position of the symbol you
- want to choose will select that symbol. (In ZODIAC, the zero
- key (0) is used to indicate the tenth position, the minus
- key (-) is used to indicate the eleventh position, and the
- equal key (=) indicates the twelvth.)
- MOUSE:
- -> When using the mouse, simply click on the symbol where it is
- displayed at the top of the slot machine to make your choice.
