Game does not work if you don't have internet

I could not get both phases of the game to work. Video poker would work but slots would not. I contacted the company that made the game and was told that they had a lot of problems with the game if you were not hooked up to the internet but they did not know that until it was released. They are sending me an extra cd to go with it to make it work. If your hooked up to internet, you should be ok according to the company that made the game.

Games are flawed

I puchased 3 packs and none of them work properly. In the middle of a game it will just go off and you lose all the stats.

The poker diskettes cursor has a mind of it's own. It also will pay a losing player and go off in the middle of the game.

I think I deserve a replacement for all of the ones I bought. None of them work correctly.

A real casino like this would go out of business

The poker in this game is horrible! Far too often losing players are paid. Unless the manufacturer wanted to add a human element, the game is horribly flawed and useless for someone trying to sharpen their game. But the graphics are nee-to!

An update

Just wanted to remind everyone that I also reviewd this game mistakenly on the Reel Deal Combo pack. A real bargain. I never saw their table poker game, but looks pretty good judging from the screen shots.

Also if you liked this game, please keep a look out for the RD vol. 2. Even better, juswt like this one, you'll recognize some familiar Williams,Bally and IGT games with the names and logos changed for copyright reasons.

I amend what I said about the multiplay poker, you can play what ever you want, but max bet is ten hands at 10 credits each. I have trouble making money on this one. A different format from Masque Multiplay, or the vol. 1 machines. Also the Bingo game is great, but a money loser.

Read your owner's manual for vol. 2. (Case insert.) it says to e-mail them if you win all the prizes. I'll try. Let us know what happens. Customer support is excellent.

I know this review isn't about vol 2, but please be advised that mine slowed down after running a while. If that happens, close out and come back. but its still really fun.

Pleasantly surprised

I recently purchased this game along with Masque's Slots program. The Masque program gets the nod for having accurate replications of actual slot machines, but this game gets the thumbs up for having better sound and graphics, and for being the most fun to play.

In particular, I like the creative additions to a few of their slots such as Mountain Climber, which allows the player to send a yodeling mountain climber up the side of a mountain. If he gets high enough in 20 spins, the player is rewarded with bonus coins. Another game has five different reels spinning simultaneously. Of the many casino games I have played, the slots on this one are the most innovative and entertaining.

Reel Deal Slots also includes a number of video poker machines and I must disagree with the reviewers who say these are accurate replications of casino machines. Far from it. Not only are the graphics much different than IGT machines, the payouts are ridiculously high, some allowing 135% return on optimum play. You won't find those machines in a casino, I can guarantee it. As far as the game itself, the cards are dealt a little slow in my opinion, but nothing unbearable. Masque (again) gets the nod for realism in the Video Poker category with their game Multiplay Video Poker and is a much better choice for video poker players.

But the main reason you're buying this game to have fun with slots, right? If so, I would recommend this game.
