Barcrests latest games!

So here we have Barcrests 3 newest games as shown on http://www.playersheaven.com/barcrest/new_games/

All 3 machines look pretty good. Some might say that The Lepechaun's Gold and Alien look as good as each other!

Pacman though does look very good in design. I will buy one of these in 3 years or so.

Only problem is the £70 jackpot and a £1 a spin. Why did this happen? When the fruit machine companies find out that it will turn out to be an epic fail what then? £2 a spin an a £100 jackpot?

Just imagine what these 3 machine would have been like on 30p play and £15 jackpot. They would have played so much there would have been ques. But no, instead machines will go empty, people will get banned from pubs for emptying machines. Not just players.... what am I saying, is there a casual punter out there going to put there loose change in the fruit machine?

----------------------

Anyway, onto The Leprechaun's Gold. Rainbow riches is a massive hit on the £500.

The machine looks great. Not played it myself and probably never will. Can't really comment on it but Barcrest say,

The latest instalment in the legendary Rainbow Riches series of games Includes the much loved bonus gamble option from the original game!

Well, not a lot then!

They do give some hints and tips though.

* Use the overprinted nudges and Lucky Horseshoe symbols to generate fruit wins
* You'll be seeded in the cash ladder and may now gamble on one of two hi-lo numbers to direct progression in the feature grid
* Bonus positions and steps may be used to improve the odds
* Use nudge symbols on the reels to nudge in the wins
* Use nudges carefully as there may be a better win!
* Three Lucky Horseshoes symbol awards bonus nudges
* Step to a bonus symbol during the hi-lo game to process it
* Play the £1 game for maximum excitement. Minimum fruit win is £4!!!

Some good tips to be had there! :-)

Just remember, on a £1 a go the 3 hold system is out of the window. Spin. Hold, hold, hold £4. Great! £4 in £4 win.

If you are a member of players heaven then you can buy a super tip for a star. I had 14 of these so super tip bought! Good job to as this tip needs to kept close to your cheat. Don't tell anyone.

Super Tip!

Do the Irish Jig if you think you are good enough!

So there you have it. Seroiusly, that's it.

Fruitvideos score. 0.1/10. This is for effort. Make something new, think of something better. If you are going to reglass, reglass something decent. Please please don't DOND us though!

--------------------------------

Next up is Pacman. Pacman is a great idea. No doubt a clone of an existing machine but Pacman is Pacman. No doubt the machine will play like a pig but a newish theme goes down well.

So here's Barcrests have to say.

Pac-Man is the latest game to come from Barcrest Games. Re-live those classic arcade moments in a brand new format!

Ok, so them fond memories are 10p for 30 mins game play. This is what you will lose on 1 spin on the machine and that is if the machine is set to 90% (unlikely).

We have some hints and tips for this one too.

* The game features a 1-7 trail into multi levels
* You can feature exchange by hi-lo gambling reel wins and move around the lapper using the 1-12 reel shooting at cash, feature and the super zone
* Hold your numbers wisely to land on the 'entry' arrow or a bonus
* Collect three Pac-man icons to access the ‘Super Pac-man’ hidden reel
* A ‘mystery value’ spins into hidden reel
* Values on the ‘Super Pac-man’ panels are eliminated, followed by an offer on the alpha display
* You may Accept (collect) or Reject (continue) the offer. If all offers are rejected, the mystery value is revealed and awarded

Nice tips! :-)

Again, a super tip can be bought for 1 star. Are you ready? Are you sure?

Super Tip!

Look out for the Hints and Megas Hint that appear at random in the top and bottom game.

Well, I guess it's better than the other one!

FruitVideos score. 5/10. This is on'y because it looks so good. Should go down quite well if you can afford to play it.

---------------------

Last up is Alien. Yes, a new theme! But antoher clone...

Basically exactly the same as The Leprechauns Gold.

This is what Barcrest have to say.

Alien is the latest branded product to come from the Barcrest Games stable. You will find this innovative game simply Out Of This World!

So not alot again.

The hints and tips are exactly the same.

What about the super tip?

Super Tip!

Out of This World - give it a try!

So all in all, pant's!

Fruitvideos score. 0.2/10 as it's not a clone of a clone of a colne and so on. It's just a clone of a clone of a clone etc etc.

------------------------

So that rounds up Barcrest 3 latest machines. I predict epic fails all round. Not because the games look bad. Simply the Amusement costs to much.
