| Money To Play The Slots
Today the largest group of casino players are playing slots. It wasn't always this way, as late as the mid-seventies slots were not thought of serious games of chance. They were often played
by the female companions of male table players, husbands were often seen giving their wives money to play the slots with while they went off to play the more serious table games. In those
days a "respectable" table player wouldn't be caught playing the slots.
The original slot machines were mechanical devices and some cheats tried various ways to beat the house. People tried everything from the use of magnets to drilling a hole through the
side of the machines, all in an attempt to influence the mechanism. There was even a legal method discovered by a few that involved a style of pulling the handle that controlled the drop of
one or more of the reels. This increased the players odds greatly, and caused the casino operators some concern until a method was devised to remove this advantage. The manufacturers
have kept modifying and refining the machines to keep the games honest.
Today the vast majority of slot machines are electronic and computer controlled so that outside manipulating of the machines by cheaters is now just a part of slot machine history.
It was the introduction and rapid acceptance of video games that changed the slot machine forever, the casino operators developed a new line of electronic slot machines, ones that offered
vivid graphics and exciting sound effects. The casino operators also added further refinements such as connecting several machines together and taking a small percentage of every play and
adding it to a jackpot total. If no one hits the jackpot for some time it can grow into a huge amount, and although the odds are small it will payoff and one lucky player will win big. These
"jackpots" also helped to increase slot popularity to where it is today.
Today slots are the most popular form of casino gambling, with up to 40% of casino revenue originating from these "one armed bandits".

The Skull Duggery symbol is a wild, multiplier symbol.
It is only wild for food symbols. This means that
it substitutes for any food symbol to complete winning
combinations. And multiplies the payout of any combination
it completes.
The Skull Duggery symbol does not substitute
for the Scatter Skull, Pirate Captain or Dagger symbols
to complete winning combinations, or the Thief symbol
to activate the Bonus Feature.
One or more Skull Duggery symbols on the payline
create winning combinations as shown in the Regular
Payout Schedule. Skull Duggery winning symbol combination
payouts are not multiplied. The Skull Duggery symbol
only multiplies payouts if it acts as a wild symbol.
Example:
1. Two Skull Duggery symbols and a single Dagger
symbol on an enabled payline do not complete a three
Dagger symbols combination, as the Skull Duggery symbol
is only wild for food symbols.
However, two Skull Duggery symbols complete a winning
combination, as shown in the Payout Schedule, and
pay out 10 coins.
2. Two Skull Duggery symbols and three Orange symbols
on an enabled payline complete a five Orange symbols
combination and pay out 200 coins. However, two Skull
Duggery symbols are displayed, so the payout is 200
coins x 3 = 600 coins.
Two Skull Duggery symbols complete a winning combination,
as shown in the Payout Schedule, and pay out 10 coins.
So, you are paid out for the five Orange symbols
combination, as it is the higher value payout.
3. Four Skull Duggery symbols and a single Mango
symbol on an enabled payline complete a five Mango
symbols combination and pay out 150 coins. However,
four Skull Duggery symbols are displayed, so the payout
is 150 coins x 3 = 450 coins.
Four Skull Duggery symbols pay out 1,000 coins, as
shown in the Payout Schedule.
So, you are paid out for the four Skull Duggery symbols
combination, as it is the higher value payout.
4. Five Skull Duggery symbols on an enabled payline
complete a winning combination as shown in the Payout
Schedule, and pay out 12,000 coins.
The Scatter Skull symbol is a scatter symbol. This
means that it does not need to appear in a line on
an enabled payline to win. It can be scattered anywhere
on the five reels, provided two or more Scatter Skull
symbols appear.
You are paid out for winning combinations on enabled
paylines only, except for scatter wins. The Scatter
Skull symbol can appear in any position, on any of
the reels.
The Skull Duggery symbol does not complete a scatter
symbol combination.
Winnings are calculated by multiplying the Scatter
Skull symbols combination payout, as shown in the
Regular Payout Schedule, by the total number of credits
bet.
If you have a scatter win and a normal win, you
are paid out for both wins, as the scatter symbol
does not need to appear on an enabled payline to win.
The scatter win is added to the payline win.
Example:
1. One Scatter Skull symbol scattered anywhere on
the five reels, and one Skull Duggery symbol on an
enabled payline, do not complete a winning combination.
The Skull Duggery symbol does not substitute for the
scatter symbol, and a minimum of two Scatter Skull
symbols completes a winning scatter combination.
2. If you have selected a 0.50 coin and bet 5 coins
on each of the 9 paylines, your total bet amount is
0.50 x 5 coins = 2.50 credits per payline x 9 paylines
= 22.50 total credits bet.
Three Scatter Skull symbols scattered anywhere on
the five reels complete a scatter winning combination
as shown in the Payout Schedule. Three Scatter Skull
symbols pay out the total number of credits bet multiplied
by 7.
Therefore, your total payout is 22.50 total credits
bet x 7 = 157.50 credits.
3. If you have selected a 0.50 coin and bet 5 coins
on each of the 9 paylines, your total bet amount is
0.50 x 5 coins = 2.50 credits per payline x 9 paylines
= 22.50 total credits bet.
Three Scatter Skull symbols, scattered anywhere on
the five reels, and three Beer symbols on an enabled
payline, complete two winning combinations as shown
in the Payout Schedule.
The three Scatter Skull symbols complete a scatter
winning combination and pay out the total number of
credits bet multiplied by 7. So, you are paid 22.50
total credits bet x 7 = 157.50 credits.
The three Beer symbols complete a 3 Beer winning
combination and pays out 10 coins. As you bet 2.50
credits per payline, you are paid 10 coins x 2.50
credits per payline = 25 credits.
Therefore, your total payout is 157.50 credits +
25 credits = 182.50 credits.
