The SWAT TEAM symbol is wild and substitutes for
any other symbol to complete winning combinations.
A single SWAT TEAM symbol doubles the payout of any
combination it completes.
Two SWAT TEAM symbols quadruple the payout of any
combination they complete.
Three SWAT TEAM symbols on the payline create a
winning combination as shown in the Payout Table.
Example:
1. A single SWAT TEAM symbol on the payline completes
the winning combination of a single Fly Swat symbol.
With 2 coins bet, a single Fly Swat symbol combination
pays out 4 coins. However, a SWAT TEAM symbol is displayed,
so the payout is 4 coins x 2 = 8 coins.
2. Two SWAT TEAM symbols and a 3-Bar symbol on the
payline, combine to produce a three 3-Bar symbols
combination. With 2 coins bet, a three 3-Bar symbols
combination pays out 80 coins. However, two SWAT TEAM
symbols are showing, so the payout is 80 coins x 4
= 320 coins.
Liberty Bell.The Beginning of the Slot Machine.
German Immigrant, Charles Fey, credited with inventing slot machine.
In California, (especially San Francisco), in the 1890's, gambling was a popular type of entertainment. Many forms of slot machines existed at that time.
Charles Fey aimed at competing with these
existing slot machines with his "Liberty Bell". The "Liberty Bell" had many unique features that soon distinguished his machines.
Players liked the Liberty Bell, and any good establishment
gives the players what they like. The Liberty Bell was a big hit, and Charles Fey was given credit for inventing a "new"
standard in slot machines, that to this day has some
influence.
In the 1890's, slot machines can best be described
as semi-legal. By paying the players, slot machines were made illegal, and eventually banned in California. Charles Fey continued to produce his machines regardless.
He knew his machines were popular and that the end users
were the ones using his inventions illegally. Why should he
give up producing, when as far as he was concerned, they
were legal if used correctly?
He continued to produce and sell his inventions, and was eventually
arrested and fined.
It was never legal to produce or own slot machines
again in California as long as Charles Fey was alive. Production
was legal in other states and these producers often copied his
machines and sold them to his clients.
I wonder what Charles Fey would be thinking of doing in the year
2000 with Internet gambling and online casinos. Are we missing
out on the latest invention of the "Liberty Bell"?

How to play: Apart
from deciding which machine to play the only real
decision you have to make is how many coins to
play each go. It is generally always best to play
the maximum coins, as most machines only give you
the best value if you do. This is especially true
with progressives (where the BIG jackpots are) as
there could be thousands difference in the size
of the jackpot. There are some machines where the
paytable's are relatively the same however many
coins you play. If you only want to play one coin
at a time these are the ones for you. Have a look
at our reviews as we will point these machines
out for you.
