In 1887, Charles Fey brought to America what was to be one of the
jackpot of inventions.The Slot Machine.
A 29 year old mechanic from San Francisco, Fey started a craze that
thrives til this day. On the first slot machines the reels had symbols
of ordinary playing cards, not the fruit and array that we see today.
The term 'One Armed Bandit' was soon after adopted as it was thought
that the odds were not the greatest and people kept putting their money
in without much thought to how much they were actually losing. With 3
reels and 20 symbols in it's early days, the slot machine has evolved to
some that have random number generators and close to 100 symbols and
multi pay-lines.
Fey, being the inventor was also the first to actually offer the slot
machines to the public and he would rent his hand made machines to other
businesses on a 50% rental agreement. His first slot machine was called
the Liberty Bell and can be seen in a local Reno restaurant that is
owned by his family.
Casinos began putting slot machines in mainly as a distraction for the
lady friends of their male gamblers to keep them occupied and away from
the gaming tables while the men gambled. Soon the craze spread to all
peoples regardless of gender and walk of life. Along with the
introduction of slot machines came the eventual crackdown on the
gambling phenomenon by local police. Raids would ensue and slot machines
confiscated. It wasn't long before the action was moved to the backrooms
of taverns, bars and clubs.
The introduction of slot machine to Nevada has been credited to Bugsy
Seigel, notorious gangster turned casinos entrepreneur in the mid
1900's. With legalized gambling came a new love and fervor for the slot
machine and this has carried over to the internet with online casinos.
The slot machine has always held a certain fascination to gamblers
everywhere and in part is due to the bells and whistles, the sounds and
lights and the almost hypnotic quality of the game play. Slot machines
started out as simple and requiring no skill, a great way to escape
where you didn't really have to think or plan a strategy when playing.
Todays machines still require little or no skill to play, but have added
new technology, stunning graphics and sound effects, and some of the
largest jackpots of any game of chance, and have captivated the hearts
and minds millions of people worldwide and continues to attract and hook
thousands more yearly.
You can find slot machines that still have very inexpensive pulls,
starting at a nickel and going all the way up to $100 a pull and
jackpots in the millions. So there is a game out there for everyone and
every budget.
How to determine your odds? Take the number of reels, example 3 reels
and multiply the amount of symbols. This would work out to 20 x 20 x 20
= 8,000 so the odds would be 7,999 to 1.

Japanese legend tells of a band of masterless samurai who roamed the countryside as bodyguards and mercenaries for over six centuries. These mysterious warriors, shamed by their masterless existence became lost in winds of myth and legend over the years. But now the Ronin, and their secret treasures, have returned. Ride out to find the lost Ronin and their hidden treasures and find your own riches along the way. Each Ronin you discover pays handsomely, either as a scattered winning icon, a wild icon, or as a key to free spins or even free games. Koku, the coin, appears only on reel 3 and substitutes for all symbols except Ronin. The prize is doubled if Koku substitutes in a winning combination. Ronin is a wild/scatter symbol and substitutes for all symbols except Koku.

There are two bonus rounds attainable in Mid-Life Crisis. Hit
three mid-life symbols (bald guy, toupee and gold chain) anywhere
on the screen and they will assemble to pay you a big money scatter
bonus. Or, hit three “lovely ladies” and you enter
the fountain of youth bonus round, where you can win up to 4,000
credits when you have bet with max coins and max paylines. Then
find where all the money is hiding. You will be presented with
“adventure ideas”, which is located on the left side
of the screen or the miracle youth tonic, which is located on
the right hand side of the screen. Keep choosing adventure ideas
until one of your “adventures” turns into funny symbol.

woman or a baby. If you choose the Miracle Youth Tonic, all of
the wins will cycle through automatically, ending with a skeleton.
In each sub game, you will win an amount relative to your total
bet on the spin. All of the pays, with the exception of the bonus
game winners, are played from left to right. That means that
you win when you line up the icons starting from the leftmost
wheel. To see what each combination pays, just click on the “Pay
Table” button.
Cabin Fever
is a five reel, twenty payline, and two hundred coin slot machine
with a wild, multiplier symbol, a scatter symbol, a Free Spins
bonus game, and a Gamble bonus game. A two Sun symbols combination
activates the Free Spins bonus game, provided one symbol is displayed
on reel 1, and one symbol is displayed on reel 5. There is no
payout for any Sun symbol combination. The "Wild Blizzard" symbol is a wild, multiplier symbol. This means it substitutes
for other symbols to complete winning combinations. The Wild
Blizzard symbol doubles the payout of any combination it completes.
The Wild Blizzard symbol does not substitute for the Sun symbol
to activate the Free Spins bonus game. And it does not substitute
for the Squirrel symbol to complete scatter winning combinations.
Multiple Wild Blizzard symbols on an enabled payline create Wild
Blizzard winning combinations. Wild Blizzard winning combination
payouts are not doubled. The Wild Blizzard symbol only multiplies
payouts if it acts as a wild symbol. The Squirrel symbol is a
scatter symbol. This means that it does not need to appear in
a line on an enabled payline to win. It can be scattered anywhere
on the five reels, provided two or more Squirrel symbols appear.
