I didn't want to continue derailing that other thread, so I'm starting a new one for a little discussion about AWPs (or Fruities) at online casinos.

Whilst I now know what they are (and I have a sense of how they work), I still have a question about them:

Take "Jamaican a Fortune!" on MG casinos for example. If I go and play this, and just keep hammering away at it, will there come a time that it is 'forced' (as KK or VWM put it?) to pay out big to me (even if it meant I'm still losing after the big winner), or because other people are playing at the same time, is all this money going into one single machine (so to speak); the coffers fill up to a certain point and then one of those countless players hits the JP? Perhaps even the rest of those playing at the same time will notice the machine suddenly 'dying'?

Does that make sense, or am I way off track?

Some games are less clear than others. This one seems less predictable than the others. There does seem to be an element of money being "forced" in by one player being won by another player. This becomes obvious on the rare occasions that you have barely played, but get a jackpot feature out of the blue. The payouts when the jackpot feature is NOT forced are usually MUCH larger than when it has been forced out.

Microgaming have tried to make the games less predictable, for the obvious reason that UK players will have a considerable advantage.

My biggest ever fruitie payout of 52K was NOT from a "forced" session of play, but came completely out of the blue having fed a mere £300 into the game. This had to have come from other players, and they would have experienced a "dead" game for quite some time.
I am sure the exact mechanism used to trigger such payouts is a closely guarded secret at MGS HQ, otherwise if the formula were known, the games would be VERY predictable, and players knowing what to look for would ALWAYS keep winning.
This is very much how the real thing works in arcades and the seaside. Players who know the game can watch the patterns as others play, and choose the best time to leap in and go for the "force". With the online version, we cannot watch the machine as others play, so have no idea what money overall it has taken. The game "temperature" indicator does NOT record jackpot features, only jackpot reel wins, and should NEVER be taken as a sign that a big payout has not occured for some time.

The highest ever streak posted was about 70K on "Game On", a machine that does not seem "forceable". This player was betting the max 10 per spin, and hit a sequence of jackpot features that netted some 70K before the game died.

Most of these games only make it to the Flash version, which I find pretty annoying since server lag is far worse in flash, so I rarely use it.

Six Bomb seems to be a "new generation" game, and does NOT obey "the force", even though it looks like it will. This game was "Microgaming's revenge" on me:mad:
 
im no expert on fruits but my win came out of the blue , ive never hit top prize on one of them before so unlike vinyl i just sort of hope when i play them lol
track n field mouse is one of my favs tho always seem to get playtime out of it by switching the gold and silver around , havent hit the meeces yet , hope to one day ;-)

does anyone here know who makes jamacian a fortune , the software company ? apparently its not microgaming

I believe these games are made by a company that has a number of programmers from the UK land based Fruit machine companies. Many were bought out by Barcrest, who now have Kerching casino as their online offering.

For this reason, they should respond to some of the playing tactics used by "old school" fruitie players, and they DO:D

As for lucky darts, merely no comps anymore.

Treasure Ireland (£52K Nifty:p) - they took out the GAME:p

(Not seen Lucky Darts myself, probably worth a look, although maybe not at 32Red;) )
 
Fruities are probably my favourite for small deposits. I rarely bet more than 25 cents. You can often get a lot of play for a small amount, and sometimes do quite well.

My first time playing Lucky Darts, it was brand new, and I hit $150 on a dime bet. I've yet to do anywhere near that well since, although I have had winning sessions.

A year ago, I had my day with Treasure Island too. Not up to VWM's, but still very good.

Cops and Robbers and it's clone Lady Luxor will pay back most of what you paid if you stick at it. I've yet to hit the 500x pay, usually somewhere around 200 - 250x bet size.

I enjoy the frequency of bonus rounds on most of them, and they take longer to play than standard slots.

Usually when I've won, I've been winning almost from the start.

And I must say, Six Bomb doesn't hate me. No jackpots, but I've had some pretty good sessions on low bets. Still haven't hit the 3 bombs to see that bonus feature, but I've had wins with multiple blue 7s and wilds.

I've played quite a bit of Spin Crazy. I've yet to hit big on it, but can usually play for a while and lots of features.

That danged Bill and Ted slot has been a pain. There's no holds, and plays much more like a conventional slot, but I've not did well at getting my money back out of it.

I enjoy Bingo Bango Boom quite a bit too. I was lucky enough to hit the 500x on the main game once, with holding one, then two, when it seemed to be running hot and I'd upped my bet. This was at Casino Rewards, when I had logged in and found 20 cents in my account, and cashed out the $250 I'd hit since they permitted withdrawal before wagering was complete. They do carry the wagering over though if you do that.

I've often wondered if the Casino Rewards properties had one common pool for the AWPs across all their platforms.

Well, it offered me £3900 almost straight away, but I played on thinking it was like all the others. £5K later, I STILL didn't get offered anywhere near that amount again. I now KNOW this one is completely unlike the others.

I should have listened to the majorty here at the time, and taken the damn £3K:mad:

There must be something rather special about "Lucky darts" given that at least one casino has decided to stop offering comps on it like they do with Craps. Maybe the RTP is almost 100%, and they just found out - possibly an error somewhere:D

Maybe even an emptier;)

My Treasure Ireland streak is only the SECOND best reported here, as it was later eclipsed by a monster 70K+ streak on Game On, a game that was removed and actually put back again later.

Where Treasure Ireland has come back, it is pretty obvious that it has been "chipped", and does not show the same patterns as before. This is pretty common for AWP games (and Quiz machines), and is done regularly to avoid regular players getting to know the game too well and beating it. Games are also "chipped" when coding errors (mostly emptiers) are discovered by enough players to make it a problem.
 
It was achieved by Uxix last year.

You can see the shots Here

For now VWM has to settle for second Attach Removed (Old not found) although, I would be happy with a cool £52K second :P

I am, and appreciate these things are usually "once in a lifetime" events. I have had quite a few 10K to 15K AWP hits, and at the time this was all I was expecting, and I was in shock when after scooping 15K the game had NOT died, but "streaked" again, and again, and again with jackpot features all the way to the 52K.

I had never seen anything like it, and was wondering whether the software had screwed up, and I might not get paid. I was just thankful at the time it was at 32Red, rather than a few of the others, and I DID get paid without fuss. I was not even bonus banned, which would have been a CERTAINTY at any of the others.

When I saw unix score 70K off of "Game on", it was reassuring to know that it wasn't a bug, but a very rare type of "megafeature" or "streak" that can sometimes occur. This at least means I have a chance that one day I might get a similar hit if I just carry on plugging away at these AWP games.
 
So Vinyl, do you think they have chipped all the awps now?

I wonder how that six bomb works? I've got hits of $500 and $375 playing .50c base bets so I'm certainly ahead, and wonder whether each bonus round has a preset max when it begins. It just seems odd that it offered you $3900 out of a possible $4000 and then stopped....just weird.

I do like to dabble on chavin it large and clones but are completely dead lately.

Which ones are you playing at the moment?

The ones I know well NEVER seem to show the patterns I got used to earlier. In particular, I have NOT seen the "ships, parrots" pattern on TI that used to indicate a forthcoming jackpot feature, and usually a good one.

Six Bomb is completely different, as unlike all the others, a refused offer does NOT ever get represented to the player, but lost altogether, just as it is when you use "double up" after a video slot win.
 
It sure was amazing when I hit that.. The feeling was great but I ended up cashing out 11k.. Yea stupid and it's a long story.

I hate fruities now but I think it's time that I get back to playing them..Maybe I'll get lucky again lol..

I never mentioned that betting 10$/spin I lost about 7k in wins from that game before I hit the jackpot with the repeaters.

Looks like I came first after all:D

Once they pay big like that, drop your stake repeateldy until they are STILL stone cold on 0.10 spins. You can then be sure they are EMPTY, and you should move on.

Such streaks are VERY rare at this level, but 15K is more common on the 500 jackpot ones, and the 2000 jackpot ones probably give 20K and a bit, but I suppose could also go "mega" and give something in the order of 3x jackpot.

I read somewhere that a marketing sheet stated that the "megastreak" from any jackpot feature was capped to 3.5x jackpot value, and I have seen many that reach this level, and then hold back the surplus for the next feature, that this may be some kind of designed limiter.

I have also seen streaks that contradict this, as I once took 50 spins at £2 on Treasure Ireland, and it went to over 6K, which is 6x the jackpot on a £2 stake.

The best sign of a coming big payout is the offering of a top feature completely out of the blue. For example, playing Treasure Ireland and finding the feature only makes it to 10 spins and then kills you, and then all of a sudden the offers leap to 250x and 50 spins on the very next board. When I see this, I celebrate BEFORE the payout, because I know damn well what's coming, just not how much it will be;)
 
after my hit on jamacia , been reading this thread and after playing the slots for half the night , decided to give track and field mouse a spin temp was around 600
im still in awe right now , cant believe it , they just popped straight after 12 spins feature :eek: mice.webp 2 fruits in 2 weeks .... just call me mini vinyl ! ;-)

Well done mini-me;)

Classic "megastreak", and twice in a short period of time. Don't think they are always like this.

8000 off 2.0 bet even beats my 7K 50 spins on Treasure Ireland at Prime casino, for which my reward was an eventual bonus ban, and account "investigation".

Cash most of it out, and have a play with the rest.

You should also drop your stake and have another go at the Mice in case there is still something left. Try 1.0, and step all the way down to 10p till it dies completely. There might be up to 1K left in it, you never know till you try. I find this game tends to give features in clusters.
 
it gave me another $164 then the mouse hid in the corner or got stuck in a trap lol
im still in shock , the only thing im beating myself up over is i didnt think to grab my phone and video the 50 spins , would have been great to relive !
cashed out and happy
but yes cheers mate under no illusions , took 2 years to hit 2 jackpot features so im not expecting another one even tho im trying an extra 20 or 50 in the fruits

the car racing one ( forgot its name ) took me 3 times on times on the bonus feature 1 click short of the jackpot the other night and gave me the win spins feature instead , was averaging around 80 to 120 on the win spins for $2 which was very much ok , tho that game is heart attack material because it pays for any first 2 and pops the 2 jackpot symbols without the 3rd , 1 x bet and a heart skips 2 beats lol
 
I've been playing that game for years and have never seen three mice. Amazing.

What was the Jamaica hit?

I assume you're ahead now!

I would also imagine you have plenty of sessions on fruities where you get nothing?

It's incredible that some people seem so lucky on these things, like game on I've seen quite a few screenies of 4000x hits but the most I've ever seen is 1000x. Maybe I don't play them enough or don't allow a big enough bankroll? I tend to have 50 spins and move on if it ain't paying.
 
it was 2 hits in 2 weeks nifty , put the screen in 1000 x bet but yer in 2 years ive never hit a major feature until the last 2 weeks
ive had some bad sessions on the fruits , tho $2 bets for me are rare , im usually spinning $1 to 25c depending on my balance , im quite sure vynil recently posted a 1k hit betting 10c on them so i think 40 or 50 bucks would cover a decent session there.

i have never had a hit on fire n dice ever might be down about 200 on it in a year
deep sea dosh seems to give me a lot of playtime usualy 25c to 50c bets
cash n curry wipes me out so badly i never play more than 10c bets now just trying to get some type of decent feature , i just want to see what they do lol

but as for bank balances i treat them the same as a slot , i might just go in and say ok $20 session or $30 session and thats it , when i was playing jamacian a fortune i went in there with 100 to spend at $2 because i had a really nice hit on fat lady sings 500 for $1 , i guess its all in the timing
 
It would seem that the more win spins you win, the bigger the wins will be. I haven't gotten 500x bet even once when I've won 1-10 winspins in any of the AWPs.

This was a question I have been meaning to ask as I have just started trying the AWP's again, could someone answer this?

Can you? or if its going to pay out its pot ( so to speak) it will hit the top feature to do so?

decided to give track and field mouse a spin temp was around 600

Now when I play slots I take no notice of the temps as to me its all BS,but should I for AWP's? or is it the same & you just got lucky.
Most of the ones I aim trying are in the flash version anyway, because there is so many more.

Makes no difference. Just as BS for AWP as it is for video slots.

AWP games will tell you whether they are likely to pay by what they offer you before killing you off in the feature. Not all are like this though, and games like "Game On" will throw in a good feature out of the blue. Even with the more predictable ones, the really big wins do not give much of an indication that they are coming. It is the modest wins that are much easier to spot brewing, including how close a Jackpot feature is that will give a modest 1x to 1.5x the jackpot.
 
Instead of starting a new thread I thought I would post a question I have about "Game On" here. I have been playing it on and off for the past month or two at Gnuff just $10 here and there and if memory serves me correctly I have not had a losing session so far (but only making $5-$10 max on wins) betting 10c-20c bets. So far I have had two features (and just 1 a few minutes ago) with the top win being 100x bet. It has also spun up a quite a few of the 25x and 16x bet symbols. My question is when the feature spun up a few minutes ago should I have stopped the win on the scale on x2 instead of taking the 100x bet to try and build up the payouts? this is obviously for future reference.

hi not sure it matters to be honest , as youve been playing it abit you should know if you dont get the 100x & come one below it , it seems to make up that portion in spins after meaning wins in normal play, i was playing ladbrokes many years ago & hit the 1000x times 5 times total payout was 5k then it just went dead , but been playing it since & it seems that if you dont take the top one , it will just spin those remaining funds in ,your better playing it from $1 upwards & have alot of losing sessions then all of a suddeen it will hit streak where you can just hit those balls on every spin .

I have not studied that one much, but it is one of the more random AWP games. You can go a LONG time with almost no return, and then get the feature. Once it has decided to give you, say, 100x you will get it, whether you hit the 100x once, or claim lesser values a number of times. I cannot confirm whether the rest comes in during spins or with another feature coming along soon after. The previous reply suggests it pays the rest as reel wins during game play.

I have not played it long enough to figure it out as I decided to study a small number of the AWP games in considerable detail, and tend to stick to those just as I did with land based Fruit Machines, where the best players tended to specialise in a subset of the games on site.
 
mrjones is 100% correct. If it wants to give you 100x you are going to get it one way or another right away.

It is impossible to build up winnings.

To a degree. It won't offer the feature until it is ready to pay 100x, as this is the award for the lowest value ladder of the feature. If you take less than 100%, it won't offer the feature again until it has replaced what you took. Not all AWP games give such excess in the form of reel wins, they remain ringfenced for feature driven payouts.

Most AWP games will force a feature payout to you by having you "die" on an award. Cash & Curry is an example of such a game, as is Stallionaire. In both you have a meter with 3 "lives", and one is taken each time you land on an award or forfeit square. When you land and have your last "life" removed, you are awarded whatever feature, good or bad, that square offers. Thus, you cannot build up a big payout. Big payouts seem to be driven by a separate and random mechanism, and arrive completely out of the blue to award the jackpot feature, which can sometimes pay over 3x the nominal jackpot value (500x bet in the above examples).

The main difference is that AWP games are compensated, rather than truly random, hence untaken offers are held over and offered again and again until taken, and eventually forced on you. Most UK pub Fruit Machines work like this, which is why UK players find these AWP games so appealing, and so easy to learn despite the game rules being so complicated for players familiar only with Vegas and Aussie style slots.
 
ARRRRRRRHHHH me hearties :D.

Vinyl you haven't told us the story of your Treasure Ireland hit yet. Looks like you got more coins out of it than that silver bullion ship they found last week.

'Whose a clever boy?!!! Whose a clever boy?!!!'

I must have told that story fifty thousand times or more - you should listen better:D
 
No I meant your £10K one last week. I saw the screenie but there wasn't a report of this latest voyage unless I missed it somehow (or perhaps you prefer not to tell).

Anyway great hit :thumbsup:.

It was pretty standard.

1) Saw pending megastreak pattern playing out.
2) Deposited again and took it out.

Slot empty, Neteller full:p

That "other one" was completely non-standard, a real "out of the blue" event that made me think I had broken the software, and could win forever. I even worried that a fault would be declared by Microgaming, and only the "normal" megastreak amount adhered to. I was at least thankful it was at 32Red.

I am not expecting any problems from Casino Classic either, since I am VIP there, and have been for ages. Oddly enough, I became VIP at Casino Rewards for NOT playing there, but at Casino Action instead. I more or less gained my status after they had a look at the player data from Casino Action after they bought out the first two of their casinos. When they bought the others, and saw the rest of my data, I could be sure of no problems for some while, at least until I win too much. 9K isn't going to be "too much", although a 32Red style 50K would have them reaching for the off switch on my rewards account:rolleyes: (and me reaching for the control panel in Windows:rolleyes: ).
 
mr fruits ! u hit again :notworthy nice one

im trying not to have a spin till after christmas and seeing that treasure ,,,
must


fight

urge


.... yarrrr
 
Thanks to all that replied to my question about 'Game On' :) On a similar but different note I have just been playing Cops and Robbers and got the jackpot feature on 25c - which yay! - disappointingly though it only paid me $60. It is so hard to get one of these AWP features (at least in my experience) having only gotten the Jamaican Fortune feature before (which that paid out very poorly as well) that to get one but only get a just over 200x my bet. I have won more off a 20c 'win series' feature on Treasure Island. I wish those Robbers had spun up so badly. oh well.
 
That is pretty normal for this AWP, and it's clone "Lady Luxor". The top feature will be reached when it is ready to pay around 200x to 300x bet, although it will occasionally give more. Look for reel wins of 777 and three lemons as your sign that you will shortly get a slightly better than average feature. Getting melons, even handcuffs, off the reels is rare, but means you are headed for a much better jackpot feature that could pay 500x or more.

AWP games like Treasure Ireland pay a minimum of the jackpot value from the top feature, so it is much harder to hit. GeeGees is hardest of all, as it pays 2000x minimum. GeeGees is the only one of my "fab 4" that I have yet to "megastreak".
 
My opinion on fruities has changed, well my luck changed on them last night where I think I got a mega-streak can someone confirm this?
I was playing GAME ON to qualify for ladbrokes pub slot friday promo. I hit the top feature on a 0.25, I had 2 repeats in all winning £600 for that spin.

I spun and again top feature and another £250. Two spins later another feature and £112,then 4 spins later and another feature and £25. Then a few wins at 10x my bet and Iam pretty sure once it had paid me £1000 it went cold again. I cashed out £1000 and still had my 15 free spins on cashapillar today.

That does sound like "megastreak". You made 4000x bet (£1000 from 0.25 per spin). Although the mechanism for this game is different, and far less predictable, it DOES do megastreaks, and currently holds the "winner screenshot" record for giving one player around 70K at a 10 credit bet from a sequence of features. This was about twice the size (relatively speaking) of your megastreak experience.

One interesting point to bear in mind is that unlike UK Pub slots, the compensator never seems to get forced negative by such huge payouts, and if you play one of these AWP games after a megastreak it may well be stone cold, but the pot will still build from zero, rather than the game needing to take back the previous megastreak before building towards the next.
 
Thanks, this is by far the biggest (betx4000) I have won.It takes me back to emptying the cops and robbers local club machine,10p and £100 jackpots=much drunkness.But I just wonder on the third and fourth repeat on the Game On feature I didnt hit the x1000 but the x200 mostly because of the sweat and pressure,I dont know if this was true skill or pseudo skill but.

Would I have maybe won more if i had hit another 2 max multipliers or was it always gonna pay me the £1000,no matter what I hit on the feature?

AWP games like Treasure Ireland pay a minimum of the jackpot value from the top feature, so it is much harder to hit. GeeGees is hardest of all, as it pays 2000x minimum. GeeGees is the only one of my "fab 4" that I have yet to "megastreak".

I just scored 50 Win Spins on Treasure Island and I couldn't knock that back and trust a jackpot feature would be offered too. of a 25c bet it paid $196.25. I tried a few more spins at 25c then 10c but the feature killed me off almost instantly every time so I decided to leave that.

With the GeeGees slot how to do you know if it is going to go to a jackpot feature? 2000x bet is a lot to try and build the coffers up to.
 
Thanks, this is by far the biggest (betx4000) I have won.It takes me back to emptying the cops and robbers local club machine,10p and £100 jackpots=much drunkness.But I just wonder on the third and fourth repeat on the Game On feature I didnt hit the x1000 but the x200 mostly because of the sweat and pressure,I dont know if this was true skill or pseudo skill but.

Would I have maybe won more if i had hit another 2 max multipliers or was it always gonna pay me the £1000,no matter what I hit on the feature?

NO. You only got additional repeats because you didn't hit the top prize it was prepared to give you. Whilst it was still prepared to give you the top prize, it would either have kept on repeating, or given you another feature round. You may have gotten more up front by making the 1000x on the third repeat, which would have stopped you being given the fourth, but would have left you with 1000x extra, rather than two lots of 200x. If there ws only 600x left to give, it could not have let you back into the feature, although you may well have been given a couple of the lower ladders, or as has been reported before, around 600x worth of high value reel wins.

Since it went dead, you got what it had to offer, which was $196.25 given that this was a 25c bet, you WOULD have been offered the jackpot feature shortly after, possibly signalled by being offered 500x cash and then being killed, and the jackpot not coming for another feature or two.

With the GeeGees, I tend to take the second from top feature rather than keep trying for the 2000x. One way to get the 2000x though is to lower the stake significantly when being offered the second from top feature. Another feature that can pay surprisingly well is the third one up, as it is a win repeater, and can even give the jackpot + repeats (especially if taken after sharply lowering the stake).


I have also NEVER experienced a "megastreak" on GeeGees, and am not sure whether having a 2000x jackpot means no such mode exists.

Thank you for answering my question, I'll have to try the bet lowering on GeeGee's.

One more question if that's okay. With slots like 'Track and Field Mouse' and 'Ski Bunny' where every symbol is a feature symbol when do you try holding reels? or does it not really matter and you just keep spinning and ignoring the offer to hold reels?
 
This is something I'd like to know. I find myself compelled to hold something when I'm offered but 99% of the time it seems like a waste of money.

It doesn't matter. If you are due a win, it will be given whether you have held the reels or not. The only time holding the reels makes a difference is when the option to hold is accompanied by one of those "hidden bonus features". When this happens, the reel should wobble slightly, and a message like "hold reel 1" will appear. These holds WILL produce a win, which would NOT be given if you just let them spin. However, if you DO let them spin, the win will just be offered again and again until you take it, nothing is lost for good. This is the beauty of a compensated game, you just can't screw up and lose out as a result:D

What about nudges? Useless exercise? I especially hate those that give nothing after i finally gamble it to 4.
