this exciting million dollar progressive a few months back. The check would be
in your mailbox, guaranteed
for as long as you live (and
available to your heirs on
your demise)! Cash for LifeTM is a
unique progressive that offers an over
$1,000,000 jackpot to players on a variety
of different slot machines, and in a range
of denominations from nickel to one-dollar slots. Created by the makers of the popular Blazing 7s, Bally Gaming and Systems’ designers were inspired by the Canadian lottery’s “Cash for Life” scratcher tickets. Cash for Life is a wide-area progressive that links multi-denominational slots. Six different games initially comprise the series including Blazing 7s, the video slot ConcentrationTM, the Bob EubanksTM (host of the Newlywed Game) slot, plus the hysterical Saturday Night Live Blues BrothersTM slots, Double Jackpot and Rich And Famous. The unique concept of Cash for Life enables players on 45-coin nickel video games, players on 3-coin quarter slots, and players on 3-coin dollar reel spinners to have the same chance to win the million dollar jackpot of Cash for Life!

WMS’s camping-themed Wild Wilderness video slot is a riot! Bernie the Bear rummages through campers’ things and tries to fool the forest ranger by dressing in hilarious disguises. The Wild Wilderness Bonus (which is so much fun!) shows a campsite where one of the
camping characters is roasting marshmallows over a re. Bernie the Bear is itching to get his hands on one of the items that the camper has left on the
ground. Players are prompted to select an object for the bear to retrieve. But Bernie must not be noticed by the camper. Each item that Bernie retrieves without being
noticed is worth a credit award. Players continue to select items until the bear is either caught or ends up
with an object that contains the keys to the camper’s car. If the keys to the car are obtained,
all items on the screen are awarded and the second part of the bonus,
Fool the Ranger is revealed. The object is to disguise Bernie enough to get him out of the
park without Roger the Ranger noticing. He has ve disguises he can choose from. Players choose one
of the disguises for Bernie. If the ranger motions for the bear to proceed out of the park, a large credit amount is awarded, and
the player will have won the bonus round. If the ranger notices something is wrong, he blows his whistle and a police van drives up to haul off the
bear. A consolation credit
is awarded to the player and the
