I have never, ever seen this one in the wild. It looks good, like a clone of Jackpot Genie rather than SZ though!!

Very odd, did this before and couldnt find ANYTHING on it, forum troubles? Most likely me being a flid. Couldnt actually find ANYTHING of note on it though....

Yeah, good call on the clone stuff, but you get the idea from the picture.

There is one of these near me, and it can be OK. The main problem with this, is that safe-cash is a complete ARSE! Almost every board that loses will result in a win of £2-£3 which can seriously affect the force.

Have had the £75 from the top a couple of times, but it tends to go for £50 and then give you a red Flaming Hell or some other good red features.

Honestly though, the route I'd take with this is to go for the usual good Red features-:

Flaming Hot (JP+rpt majority of the time!)
Star Surprise (£20ish)
Find the Pea (Anything up to JP, but usually over £10)
Toggle Climb (£10 but sometimes £12 or £15)

There are very obvious cutoffs, or 'blocks' on this at £5 and £10. If you are on a £10 on a pretty good number, but you have only been offered green features (or red Toggle) you'll more than likely lose! (That 10, lower, 11, gamble is all too familiar here!)

We have one where I work, just went and played on a quick 'toilet break' didnt have time or money to force it. Was being a cunt then suddenly switched, got down to about £2 left and took red Flaming hell for £50 followed by a green one for a further £10, then back to the desk job.

You recommend the push over reds then?

i would tend to agree with matt here flaming hell can do a 75 and the top can block for a while so if ofered i would take as it is norm 50+ from the times i played it then a follow up 10+ best ive had on this was 96 i think from vaious tops but that was in a toby carvery were it was only played for beer money....

more or less exactly what I did. Went back now 'for one last feature', another green Flaming for £10, no one had played it in the mean time. so £70 total, with pretty much zero effort

I'd say this can be a bit of a bitch but had some awesome wins on it. And yeah it is like Jackpot Genie.

But it can block for quite a while for the 3rd unlock dragon if that's what u're going for (3 of these is top feature like all the other top features on reds)

One big tip though is if it is offering u safe cash like EVERY board it will keep doing so in my experience. It's like it's nearly ready but not quite (if showing reds though obviously). When it does this i just go back to it a day or so later.

Rolls quite a lot as well.
