The Fruit Machine Cheat Book - P12 - Digital/video Fruit Machines

You may have seen the latest wave of fruit machines to hit the arcades. The mechanically spinning reels have been replaced with computer generated graphics, and the gaming features have more recently been enhanced to include such things as; Roulette, Cards, Horse Racing, and ‘Play Your Cards Right’ type higher or lower guessing games.

There is no doubt that the technology behind this sort of machine is the way forward, but this leap in progress does not cause problems for the fruit machine player.

As the machine is now almost entirely operated by computer, it is impossible to manipulate the machine to your favour. This means the chances of winning large amounts are reduced dramatically by the pure circumstantial percentage of winning formulas due – or in layman’s terms, the video fruit machines tend to pay out a lot less, then their spinning reel counterparts.

To date, I am yet to be informed of any proper built in cheats available for this sort of fruit machine, and the best piece of advice I can give you is NOT to play this type of fruit machine at all.
However, if you do play them, then there are a few rules that do need to be followed, which will stop you aimlessly wasting pound after pound.

RULE 1
Do not aim at the jackpot! Video fruit machines payout most of their winnings via the gaming features, and not on straight three or four symbol wins.

RULE 2
Watch out for hidden features. The machine usually doesn’t highlight these, but once you have discovered the benefits of these hidden features, you can at least begin to investigate as many wins as possible.

Hidden features to look out for are ’Hyper-Nudges’, same as normal nudge, but with the added bonus of being able to nudge two reels simultaneously using just one nudge.
Another feature to look out for is the ‘Double Flashing Holds’ – you need to be quick, but by keeping an eye out for a double flash (in quick succession) on the HOLD buttons, you can prepare yourself for a win that will come in on the next spin.

If you do notice a double flash, and you have two jackpot symbols on the pay line, then you can hold them both, and it will then pay out o the symbols you have held.

RULE 3
The third and final rule is CUT YOUR LOSSES. Again, unlike the normal fruit machine that pays out on a percentage of its takings, video fruit machines pay out on a set rota. So once you have amassed a profit stop playing!
It must be stressed that these are the worst sort of fruit machines, and should be avoided if possible. If you do enjoy playing them then please be careful.
