[Andy's Great Escape £6 cash/token - £10 20p Larger Dx's - £8 dx]

Really like this.  I vaguely remember playing this in my local pub but it wasn't around for long.  Anyway, I'll try both versions; with and without tokens and see what the gameplay is like.  Other than that, the scans, sounds and overall look is spot on.  Well done Vecs !

[Jokers Wild 20p/£4.80 (hacked rom) Dx]

This is great.  Another long lost gem.  This must be one of the first fruit machines I played on when I was legally old enough.  Thanks Vecs, plays great even though it's a bit of a piggy bank on the sly !

[Secrets of the Golden Nile £6 Dx]

This is a great machine Vecs and one I played a lot in my local pub.  This pre-dates Ace's 'Watch For My Hidden Treasures' feature on the later machines - although it doesn't say, is this an Ace machine ?. 

During play it spun in a row of '4's giving a £3 win also.  It was only at this moment I realised the reel guides to the left of each reel with the numbers on.  Also the usual hidden treasure features exist in the machine also.  One other thing in case others aren't aware, if you hold the reel you wish to gamble on for high/low, it will light up.  Had a fair few quid out of this just now like the good old days.  I seem to remember it spit tokens out for fun and ended up spending them on beer behind the bar.  Thanks for bringing back the memories on this one.  Looks and plays great.

[Deal or No Deal - Live the Dream £5/£70/£100 Dx's]

This is great.  I'm with dataslater, as I tend to steer clear of them playing in real life.  So hit and miss compared to machines of old.  I'll definitely give this a good go though.  Thanks for all your hard work (as always !).

[Sunset Boulevard £4.80 JP DX - By Jamie28J and Vectra666.]

Big thanks for this, another machine I used a lot in the wild but found the token to cash ratio low, so used to either take the tokens elsewhere, or spend them behind the bar.  Looks great and plays well.  Thanks for this.

[Astra Party Time £8 20p Original 3 Player 2024 Updated Release]

Seen this loads of times and it's variants in many arcades, but never played it until today.  Looks and plays brilliantly.  However, how the deuce do I get them to line up in the middle of my screen with the overhead Party Time above.  I managed to move one machine (no idea how) and tried with the other two to no avail.

[Happy Days £6 Dx]

This is a great looking machine.  Never played it before, and the sounds definitely make it.  Thanks for all your hard work.

[Circle Line]

Big thanks for this.  I really like the ACE machines, and this is a new one on me.  Particularly like the music, espec the board music 'Streets of London'.  This is very much playable and quickly got to £30.  Took a while to get any 'hidden treasures' on it and was wondering if it used that feature, but happily it does.  Well done mate, great machine !

[Chilli Con Carnage £100 Dx]

This is a 'busy' machine.  I bet completing all the lighting was 'carnage'.  Excellent job as always Vecs, thanks mate !

[Barcrest's Weird Wolf.]

Never played this one but looks really good.  Nice one Froggy !

[Vivid Connect 4 £25.]

Thanks Froggy, plays great and remember this well.  Nice one, keep up the good work.

[Dond - Hall of Fame £35 & £70 Dx's]

Another great DOND machine.  This one I'm not familiar with.  Looks great and plays well.  Thanks Vecs !

[Jumping Jack Cash £2.40/2p Dx]

Thanks Vecs, great classic here.   Looks and plays great.

[Barmy Army by Barcrest.]

Nice one Frog.  Looks great, thanks for this !

[Monopoly £25 Dx]

Thanks Vecs, don't remember this version, but will chuck some £1's in tonight.

[Hi-De-Hi £4.80 Dx]

Thanks for this Vecs.  Missed this first time around.  Looks great.  I vaguely remember playing this in the early 90's in a pub in town and had a fair few tokens out of it.  Usually me and my mate would either keep trying if we could see the machine was full, exchange for beers behind the bar or make off to the next pub and try our luck.

[Barcrest - Addams Family 1440p WDX (£5,£8,£15 and £25)]

Thanks for this Ross, machine looks great.  Had a couple of cheeky jackpots out of it early on.  Plays well.  As others have said, this has been released before but looks great this time around !  Downloaded the £25 version as I've not played it with that payout before.

[Club Ooh Aah Dracula £250 Dx]

This is a great clubber.  Usually not a fan of them as they tend to fleece you if you don't time it right.  This is a great layout and plays really well.  Thanks for your time and appreciate the upload.  Cheers Vecs !

[Jackpot Jokers £25 Dx]

This is a new one for me also.  Not even heard of this before.  That said, there are a few machines with a similar layout and like those, so I'll give this bad boy a whirl.  Thanks Vecs.  Looks and sounds great.  Thanks for your hard work matey.

[Ace - Crimewatch - SpAce - 20p £6 Jackpot]

This is a great machine.  Big fan of Ace machines and this doesn't disappoint.  I've probably played most with the 'Hidden Treasures' theme but don't recall this one at all.  That said, plays great.  Soon had it spitting tokens out at £30.00.

[Classic Nudge Nudge Wink Wink £5/ £25 Dx's]

Thanks for this one Vectra.  Not played this one before, but good to see a revamp/update of a classic early 90's machine with updated sfx.  Nice one, the £25 version plays great.

Actually, after almost 30 years from this machine being current, does anyone know of a written guide (or able to write one) for the hidden bloody treasures? I used to know many of them but I'm can I hell as remember many now!!!

Some from memory.  It will flash with the Hidden Treasures and maybe either the top or bottom line will flash briefly if there is a win there.  Hold all three reels, then press start and they will jump up or down.  If you nudge, then hold the two for the win, cancel and spin.  Sometimes on nudges it will flash with hidden treasures and a reel may jump slightly so you would get an extra nudge to bring in the win.  Another one is if you have two of the same on any middle row and flashes with 'hidden treasures' and on the other reel there is the icon you need (i.e. two red bars on the middle row, and on one of the reels above is another red), hold all three for one nudge.  The last one I remember is when you hold for boxes or feature but can't remember that one that well.  If it happens again, I'll edit the post or if there are any more that I come up against.  This is standard for all these style machines. 

Also, if you get a decent number on one of the reels , press that button down whilst it's saying 'Watch for my hidden treasures', and that reel will light up so you can gamble on it.  Otherwise the number gambling for a higher win is pants.  I've always took the feature exchange on £1.20 win for nudges.  Usually get £3.00, jackpot or make up one of the lines on the 'band aid'.  As a general rule, if there are no 'hidden treasure' messages, or nudge, and a hold is offered, its not worth it.  The only difference is if you have two that appear on the same line on the band aid.  One the very odd occasion if you hold, it will come in.  This happened to me on line 16 for nudges.  I nudged all 3 reels down to match up with line 2 to offer jackpot.

My fave one is 'Open The Box' with 'Twilight Zone' a close second.

[Ace - Hi-Flyer]

Always liked an Ace machine with the 'Hidden Treasures'.  I remember playing this in the early 90's.  Nice work !

[Funny Money £25 Dx]

This is a really good machine.  Great sounds (as someone mentioned earlier).  I don't remember ever playing this before, but it's just scalped £50 off me and given back next to nothing.  Will persevere with it.

 

Thanks again for this. 

[Nudge Nudge Wink Wink £6 Dx]

This is a great list and accompanies Cloud 999 perfectly.  I remember playing this lots back in the early 90's
