Bally Technologies’ new Reel Money progressive reel-spinner has been released for sale in all major U.S. markets.

This five-level internal/external progressive game features a unique “virtual spinner” secondary progressive bonus event that offers players the excitement of a guaranteed win on each successive bonus level. Players also have a chance to win all five progressive awards during the same spin, including the top prize, which starts at US$25,000.

The progressive bonus round occurs in the top-mounted LCD display situated above the reels. Each progressive level, from lowest to highest, is named for a specific gemstone: “Emerald, Sapphire, Ruby, Topaz” and “Pearl”. At the start of the bonus a virtual spinner appears and a pointer spins, randomly stopping at up to 10 bonus-award values. If the pointer stops on the space that matches the gemstone, the player wins that level’s progressive award. This process continues up each progressive level until these predetermined spins have been completed. Each level offers players a guaranteed win, regardless of whether or not the progressive award for that level is achieved.

The top jackpot award resets at $25,000 and increases based on coin-in on the local-area progressive link.

Reel Money is available as a five-reel, 30-line stepper with a 150-credit maximum bet at the one- or two-cent denomination level. The game also can be configured as a five-reel, 20-line game with a 60-credit max bet at a five-cent denomination. All three of these denominations can be linked together to offer a total progressive package on the casino floor.

Reel Money is available on Bally’s award-winning ALPHA Elite wide-screen CineReels and upright S9E cabinets.
