Adders 'N' Ladders by Empire Games - £5 & £35 Classics 1.0.0

How ironic, I picked up couple of old versions of this yesterday as wanted abit of nostalgic playtime, and then these pop up

 

Great work mate, and many thanks on a classic, thats still about in my local seaside towns, but im waiting for the 3 player sit down one

What I didnt realise is, these are exactly that of the 3 player sit down I want, but just single player. The ones I got yesterday were old school, Im even more thrilled now - Many Many Many Thanks

 

 

Some feedback for you -

On the £5 Jp, I full screen it with F3 key, like I do all my machines, and get the backdrop effect, and plays & looks perfect, escape kep brings me out of the full screen like normal

On the £35 I can full screen it, and play it as normal, but coming out of full screen, it brings me to a strecthed screen, so can't goto the file of MFME, might be something my end with screen or something, but never had that before with any other layout, and as I said, the £5 JP is perfect, but the £35 JP, only way I could come out the game, was to hit windows key, right click the mfme and close window that way

 

Not a real biggy but thought id mention it, the £35 took loads from me, before finally getting in only to be blown out on the 2nd spin with a roll even - Hahah

LET'S GOOOO!!!

(sorry I've been waiting for this one)

These are single player ROMs by Empire, from the £35 jackpot era. The previous machines were by Vivid in the £25 jackpot era, and I'm pretty sure they only game as a sit down with plasma video top  game, or normal game board. Gameplay seems to be pretty similar, but 1 thing I did notice is that I had a 'let em spin' a minute ago, on the £35 version, with feature symbols on the winline. I expected it to give 3 symbols on the winline for an invincible mode, but it just gave 3 symbols in view instead.

Glad you are enjoying it

That's odd... just tried it on mine and it worked fine on both £5 and £35 versions. To be honest I hadn't actually tried this in full-screen yet, normally I would play that way but forgot about it when putting this together. I'll try on my other PC and see if it's different as it's a different resolution

Thanks! I think you can tell I'm really hypes for this layout, I've played the barcrest version and in that one normal wins are a little pointless because there's no exchange, but on this not only is there a better and more joyful sample pack but there is actually a little more depth to the game.

Very nice machine. I'm glad I'm not using real money though. Put about £50 in £35 version and got about £10 back.... which has gone back in.

I'll get that Jackpot soon

Maybe its just my setup then, strange but not a real issue. To Echo the last comment, the £35 JP took stacks off of me and also, I too thought if you were to get 3 holds on the feature symbols (or a let em spin) it would be more than just a standard feature, but least I know now

Nice looking classics, thanks for the layouts.

Personally I'm not into classic layouts but this will do nicely, thank you.

Wow, thanks for this layout, @slotsmagic.

Played the 4 player sit down one, in Leysdown with the huge board... always liked Adders n Ladders in it's different forms over the years.

I believe this is the one with the smug voice that goes "Climbing up....." going up the ladder and "Sliding down..." going down the ladder.

It does, I've never been in the UK so I can't say I've ever seen one, but I've watched loads of different videos of the 4 player "arena" version as I call it, and even a few of the casino cab version (which this is)

Thanks for this one, any chance you could do the arena version of this sometime in the future?

Excellent release, a very fair and popular game, still plenty kicking around, not even just at sea sides.

absolute smashing release thanks for this

all these old favourites of mine thank you so much

 

Love this one . thank you for this .

Thank you, I still play this one (3 Player Version) if I am in an arcade which isnt very oftern any more, looking forward to playing it on the emualtor.

Thank you for the fantastic layouts.
