Lots of Variety But More Gimmicks Than Muscle, July 27, 2000
This review is from: Avery Cardoza 100 Slots 2000 (CD-ROM)
Speed of play is extremely slow, even on Windows 98 with lots of RAM and plenty big hard drive.
These slots seem to be set up primarily for visual displays and do a good job for this, but the total lack of the ability to speed up the action is frustrating. Cardoza needs to incorporate a mechanism to increase the speed of the spinning reels (preferably within the control of the player).
I consider this problem serious enough to forego any further purchases of Cardoza products.

Could be better, April 4, 2001
This review is from: Avery Cardoza 100 Slots 2000 (CD-ROM)
At first I was attracted by the variety, having owned hoyle, masque, and monopoly, slots. I'll have to admit the book made it worth while at first, and I do agree that there is more style than substance. The game plays OK, but save your money, unless you are a Cardoza fan, and look for the PhantomEFX Real Deal slots and Video Poker, perhaps the best on the market.
A good slot game program would be endorsed in Casino Player, or Strictly Slots magazine and this one wasn't. There are probably worse ones there, but there are for sure better ones. The real downside for me was that the game did not install to full-screen without changing my settings, and that is somewhat of a hassle getting them back.
In all fairness, the game is fun to play, but I found the 4-reel games almost impossible to hit. Sound and graphics are first rate.

One armed bandits, let's go, June 17, 2000
This review is from: Avery Cardoza 100 Slots 2000 (CD-ROM)
As a slot machne addict, I was engrossed from the beginning by this very well done cd rom. If you enjoy a challenge and just want to have fun, this is a must buy. The program is easy to follow and a lot cheaper then a day out at the casino. What a great job!
