This machine rates almost as
difficult as Wild King. The good thing about this machine is it has more
playability. The board game style feature can offer a couple of good features.
MAVERICK involves skill stopping the Hi-Lo reel for a win amount which is then
multiplied by an amount in the money window. I have had £44 (11x4) a few
times from this feature. A large win can sometimes make this machine
temporarily happy and it is not unusual for a four of a kind win to nudge in
afterwards. The other feature is GOLDFEVER which pays about £20 and
offers a repeat - which is very rare. The game play is very predictable. If the
machine is playing well it will constantly offer you small wins and features.
The gamble is very poor. The jackpot is paid out rarely by the four treble bars
rolling in - not the kind of machine for a good gambler. If the money is
falling down the back of the machine there is usually about £40 to be
won. Hint: This machine has a ‘STOP’ feature after losing nudges. It
will often offer you nudges for £1.00 or £1.60 which usually lose
on the gamble anyway. When possible I refuse these wins and try to nudge in
bigger fruits on the win line. Quite often you will see the machine offer you
one nudge for £1.00 and all you needed was two nudges for £15.00. I
nudge in the wrong cherry and often get the £15.00 from the
‘STOP’.
