Hi "wayram".

You can find "Bejeweled" at various Cryptologic casinos, most notably:

- InterCasino
- Littlewoods
- William Hill
- Ritz Club Online

I hope that this helps, because these are 4 of the better Cryptologic (Waterlogic) casinos I know of.

By the way, this IS a great game. Very, very, very fun!!!

* I've been quite busy the last few days, but I should have a little more time to add to this thread. Good luck to those entering the tournament over at slotjunkies.

Bryan is absolutely right. Exposed boobies take you right to the top. Only Silver Kiss is better

And there are exposed boobies to relax to as well...

Ahem, anyway many of the slots listed so far I play quite often - mainly the 15 free spin slots at MG - don't forget Riverbelle's version

I find the free spins to be very sporadic - but I've had some very good luck at Springbreak and Ladies Nite which encourages me to continue playing these games. Simmo! and Spearmaster can attect to this once they check out their affiliate accounts this month at Maple Casino and Musichall

A couple of inclusions:

Bush Telegraph has been good to me recently. And I discovered this quite by accident by clicking the link to the game mistakenly.

Sun Quest This is a pre-viper slot that I always liked. It was once exclusive to Sun Vegas but has been added to a number of other casinos. No bonus rounds, but the payouts can be very lucrative. Warning: when it goes dry - it really goes dry.

Playtech's Chinese Kitchen is a new fav of mine. As mentioned somewhere above, one's bankroll can last for a while on this one (seemingly so).

Crypto's Bejeweled is very cool. I like their new Marvel slots. But like Johnsteed mentioned, the bonus rounds don't come as often as they should.

Side note, I wish that MG would make an option for players to be able to play the "coin value" slots (all of the new slots) either as "coin" or "cash". I find it annoying to think of math problems while playing the slots (how much $$ is 350 coins, etc.). This is an option at most land based slot machines. I am not a math head - never claimed to be. I guess I should be the one to suggest this to them.

Hi Johnsteed,
Thanks for the help you have given me , I will download a couple and have a go and let you know what I think....

 

[wayram]

have just downloaded Intercasino and put in 90 and got 90 free...played Bejeweled and its ok but the only thing worth getting are the blue ones...I dont think this one will hook me....the other games are just games in my opinion.

 

[johnsteed]

The GREAT hype...

wayram

I think I may have overstated my liking of this game in my most recent post, but I think it's the anticipation of the blue jewels lining-up JUST right that gets me all excited (the reds are pretty good as well). :notworthy I think I've also been REALLY fortunate with this game thus far, so I've been overly accepting of it (without seeing more of its flaws).

Out of the slots games though, I'd have to say that (to me) it's the most fun. That may have something to do with the fact that it's different than the other slots, just like how PlayTech's very own Chinese Kitchen and Vacation Station are a bit refreshing compared to what's out there (because they're unique as well). I suppose if every software provider made games similar to Chinese Kitchen, it wouldn't be as enticing.

Regardless, I hope you do well at InterCasino, and if you play the Marvel Games, I'll put in a prayer in for you so can have an outside chance of getting the bonus features (IF they EVER arrive).

Best of luck this weekend wayram!

"Mid-life crisis" after a cold run at Tomb Raider...

Meanwhile, what do you think of tim5ny using his daughter as an avatar??



Haha, personally (sorry tim5ny), VERY pleased that he changed his avatar within a very short period of time. That motion-image was REALLY doing a number on my eyes. At the same time KK, I'm REALLY starting to miss your old avatar with the fat man in the tux (over the Cashville, (now) Loaded, the Homer Simpson w/KK hat, and message board avatars).



tim5ny

I have a love/hate thing goin on with Halloweenies. When it's hot, you can't beat it, but when that bonus round says NO, then it means it!



Hmmm, it's like my "I want to love" Tomb Raider, but it's REALLY got some kind of beef with me since listing it as my #1 slots game (still is... but it's losing ground). It's been a VERY ice cold week for yours truly on that and Mermaid Millions (I never would have played this game, and it's a good one... cheers Simmo! and Pinababy69). As you said, if one's going cold, go to the other... yet, they both went cold this week (again, bad week).



Randy

I spent yesterday morning playing slots at Breakaway Casino, and to my surprise, I'm really digging their slot machine games. I particularly enjoyed Mid-Life Crisis and It's Good to be Bad.



Hi Randy.

Thank you for your post. I've not played either game, but I'll give them a whirl sometime soon (particularly Mid-Life Crisis). While I'm not so crazy about RTG casino's, I don't mind either BreakAway or Sci-Fi Casino. Besides, I'm getting an urge to play some Aztec Treasure and Caesar's Empire (largely because I just finished watching Ben Hur this afternoon... classic that still holds up today ).


Schnozzy

I really liked Good To Go until it decided that it hated me. Love the graphics, and my first few sessions were fantastic fun.


Hi Schnozzy,

Funny, I never liked this game AND it's always hated me. I guess that makes the perfect team.


wayram

HALLOWEENIES lousy graphics who ever designed them must have been on something at the time as all the colors seem to get mixed up and very hard to tell what is wild and what is not but I still like the game.

I'll have to try this game. Hey wayram, thanks for making a list of 10. Not easy when you're only drawing from a pool of 1 software provider. I'd have to say though, to this point in time, MG clearly has designed/made the most preferred slots to date.

Here we go then John, probably not worth the wait, but still...

Most people’s favourites are naturally going to be the ones they’ve had the best wins on!
I’m no different, but I’ve tried to include ‘entertainment value’ in my assessment.
Best Five (not necessarily in order):-

WHAT ON EARTH: You get lots and lots of little ‘fruit’ wins to keep your bankroll rolling while you’re praying for a good bonus round. Three of all symbols (except cherries) gives you at least the cost of your spin back, as does just one of the three top symbols if it lands on reel one! The bonus can hit very frequently and has the potential to pay out a very big win for a small spin cost! My favourite is the ‘Contest’ bonus.
Downside: I HATE the ‘chimes’ you get for the red spaceships when they are not adjacent – makes you think you’ve won a bonus round when you haven’t.

TOMB RAIDER: Great graphics, great sounds, 2 types of bonus feature which means they hit far more frequently than those slots with just one. Also has more than 1 wild symbol per reel, and with 15 lines, this means you seem to get some sort of win in 6-7 spins of every 10.
Downside: Most places have it at 5c min per line = a bit steep for us low-rollers!

DAILY HOROSCOPE (and Round the World & Reel Renovations): These are the only slots I’ve ever seen anywhere where the amount you win on the bonus feature is entirely dependent on the true skill of the player! A proper challenge at last! (Though not terribly difficult...)
Downsides: 20 lines is too many for any slot – makes it a bit of a money-eater.
There is no coin size between 1c & 5c – 1 is too low & 5 is too high (for a low-roller!)
During autoplay you can wait AGES while it shows you all the pathetic little wins you just got.

CLUEDO (Wagerworks): I only played this for the first time this week – but already love it! The sounds & graphics are totally excellent for a ‘flash’ casino game. The bonus round gives you 3-picks, which makes a pathetic win more unlikely. It also has the unusual feature of letting you bet different numbers of coins on each of the 15 lines!
Downside: Once again, the minimum bet is too high at 5p/line. It’s 15 lines, so if you play all of them its minimum is 75p ($1.30) per spin.

WITCHES WEALTH: Great sound & graphics (apart from the jar of eyeballs & the purple head thing, which are kinda creepy!). Only 9-lines - makes your cash last longer. Bonus rounds can hit VERY frequently (averages something like 20-30 spins), and the ‘flying bonus’ usually has a pretty good payout! Another great point is the Wild Witch also subsitutes for the Scatter symbol.
Downside: The pathetic wins (just over x1 & x2) either side of the bonus segment on the spinning wand thingy hit FAR too frequently.

And now the ‘duffers’ – the world would be a better place without these:-

Crypto’s FRUIT MACHINES: These have to be some sort of joke on the part of the software writers. You get loads of feature rounds – but your chances of actually winning anything from them seems to be < 0.01%. These really are the most un-random pieces of crap I have ever seen.

All 20 & 25-LINE slots: Sorry, but that’s just too many lines! The 3 and often even 4 symbol ‘wins’ are usually so pathetic that they don’t even return the cost of your spin. The bonus features can pay very well – but you’ve got to be hitting them frequently because between features these slots will eat big holes in your wallet!

THUNDERSTRUCK: A controversial choice I know, as this is many players favourite. I really like the sound & graphics, but this slot just does not like me. I’ve been back to it time & time again to try to find out why so many rave about it, but it’s always an expensive investigation. I would be much better of financially if this slot never existed.

REEL STRIKE: You need FIVE symbols to get the feature? Feature often 2 spins at x1? Never seems to produce any big hits? Two scatters = zip, three = x2?
Need I say more… Reel Crap!

 

[Simmo!]

Downside: I HATE the chimes you get for the red spaceships when they are not adjacent makes you think youve won a bonus round when you havent.

AH my! I thought i was the only one! That is such a wind up - i hate it too

 

[vinylweatherman]

Joke?

Cryptos FRUIT MACHINES: These have to be some sort of joke on the part of the software writers. You get loads of feature rounds but your chances of actually winning anything from them seems to be < 0.01%. These really are the most un-random pieces of crap I have ever seen.

The joke is on Crypto - had they done their research 10 years ago these would have been a big hit. Sadly, they have modelled these on the Fruit Machines around over the last couple of years, just as the industry is in it's death throes! Crypto Fruits are Authentically CRAP, just like the real thing. Sadly they lack the only redeeming features that "proper" fruit machines have, which are the common standards of "3 holds and the win comes in", "you will be offered at least one prize in the feature round before you die [one Fruit machine company, Red, has broken with this recently]".
All features except top one being 2 to 4 max at cryptologic is actually just like the real thing - CRAP though that is.
The only possible excuse for playing Crypto Fruits is to meet WR on a bonus with a 25p bet (you would take every prize, never go for the feature). I have tried the Hulk one & it's just a clone of the other two, no proper design effort put in to make it different.

Here in the UK, we are beginning to see "Fruit machines" along the line of the MG feature slots, which in turn are derived from Australian Video slots.
My 88 Year old Aussie Uncle claims that they can be "done" if played right!
The method is totally illogical, but has often been mentioned here, and can be summed up by saying "if it has done 1000 with no bonus round it's well overdue, so put the bet up".

 

[tim5ny]

I will be adding mine at a later date - like when I can find some time!

Meanwhile, what do you think of tim5ny using his daughter as an avatar??

Why you son of a gun KK! With all that money I'm sending to college, she'd better not be having that much fun! My current avatar is better suited to this forum... ya think?

this is the edited part.... Let's take a vote on how many people think KK should go back to his original avatar. That one suited him to a tee!!

 

[KasinoKing]

Let's take a vote on how many people think KK should go back to his original avatar. That one suited him to a tee!!

Which one are you referring to?
(I've had about 7or8).

Anyway, back on topic, this is very quickly becoming one of my favourite slots!
Another nice win just dropped straight in - not massive, but very nice!
(I'll take 100/1 wins all day, any day!)

I am also beginning to think this slot, although obviously based on mega-rigged rip-you-off UK 'pub' machines, could actually be random!

Twice in one day! Just a few hours later...
I'm lovin it!
