Must agree with both Grecian and Cool, something unusual about this game - but it has payed!

Whatever may or may not have been tried here, it doesn't seemed to have worked, I fear it must go. Sad really, I really thought it might be a 'pros game', the punter paying as always.

I might have wasted time here, (made a few bob), but it's been an experience. I would not normally climb into a new bank, it might be gone tomorrow, but this game was enticing.


Money goes in, some of it must come out!

Cluedo Reloaded was an easier re-programming of the earlier (really dodgy) version of Cluedo where the jackpot went down with each room visited. I suspect that TIOLI may have become easier since the initial incarnation I saw on a GamesNet, but maybe I'm imagining that.

Once the sheep had learned to cross the cattle grid all cattle grids became easy. Until the day the farmer remodified the cattle grid.

take it or leave it (in my opinion) is exactly the same whether on gamesnet or itbox. in easier i meant the way that the programme is structured in terms of question content / spoilers not the totally obvious such as the cleudo example. Effectively it was a different game to the naked eye.hells bells looks exactly the same.

Yes, to my mind better than Caveman Capers (certainly easier). I really only play it now when I happen across an ItBox 54, which is lazy: might it not have recharged a bit on other ItBoxes by now? That said, it's on the back screen and I can't see it taking serious sums any more from the paying public.

Still good returns on Hell's Bells, not spectacular but fair enough. It doesn't seem to be over-popular with the punters though, mostly a case of when it's gone it's gone.

I have never seen anyone else playing this game. I usually play this one first to generate a few quid to play the rest with. I always try and leave a marker on the top hit score board just to remind me the last time I played it.

Sometimes you go back a couple of months later and there are no new additions to all-time board since you were last there. But I suppose most casual punters never get the hang of hitting a big score and only ever do it by accident.
