I used to play this game a lot as a kid because it loaded in 20mins compared to the hour-odd it took for games like Roland on the Ropes or Couldron! Thanks for the trip down memory lane ;)
i loved this game, brings back memorys!! me and my dad used to have a go each and see who could win the most. made a brilliant noise when u got the jackpot :)
You have no idea about games then. There are loads of games today that are so bad, kids will play it for 5 mins and take back to the shop. And yes I'm talking about wii and 360 games Games that NO ONE will be talking about 25 years later.
The Bourne game on the 360 was boring as hell.
Fruit Machine had kids hooked for hours. This means it was a decent game at the time.
@c0011y5383 I have to agree with C0011y5383. This has about as much excitement as watching 2 litres of magnolia drying on walls.
And it did back then as well. I am old enough to remember playing it! And theres no way you can pull up any modern game today and say its worse than this. No way.
Winner spinner!!

I can remember spending hours at a time playing this when I was younger. Remember how crazy the screen went when the 500 jackpot was won? =)

OK man peace I didnt mean to upset you so much. But I still feel I would have had more fun playing in a puddle than playing this game.

I remember my dad and his mate hogging this for ages on Christmas day when I got my Amstrad.
Wasnt there a full list of all the reels printed in the instructions so you could cheat with nudges?

Hitting the jackpot could be hazardous if you have photo sensitive epilepsy.

There was another fruit machine game released that I remember for the CPC. It was much better looking than this. Wasted so much time on it.

It's pretty bad. But I have seen 50 CPC games that are a lot worse. Amstrad Action were not the best source for ratings though.

Hahaha. Didn't Rod Lawton of "Amstrad Action" magazine give this game the lowest rating ever?

Awesome flash back... I seem to remember the graphics being better back then. Too used to XBOX I guess. Nice post.

Very basic Amstrad game. Came with the "free" games pack when you bought a CPC back in 84. Strangely addictive...
