I bought Nickel Alley because we love playing Reel Deal Slots Volume 2 also by Phantom EFX. We were not disappointed. This one is great fun, too!

Nickel Alley has about 25 games but they all have bonus rounds (although a few are only 'bonus spins'). They have reworked the prize vault so that you don't know how many prizes there are because you have to win 6 before you can enter the next prize room.

I have some slot games by other manufacturers but anything by Phantom tops them all. If you liked RD Slots Vol. 2, you should like this, too. I only wish I could win this well at the real casino!

Another great one from phantom efx

I must say i love this game! It was worth the wait to get it! They have awesome bonus rounds, and some are quite funny. This will make the time pass by pretty fast and it keeps you busy if you are having a boring night! I recommend this to anyone who loves casino games, and don't want to waste their money at actual casinos.!

Extremely FUN!!!

Real Deal Slots Nickel Alley Features Two games we can find in the casino, Hollywood and Periscope which are both 9 coin Video Slots with Bonus screens. both games are very Fun. The rest of the games on the CD-ROM are 9, 15 and 20 line Video Slots, most with Bonus screens. There Games include a Golf game-Longest Drive, A Military Game, A Magic Game An Asian game, A trucker game-Long Haul, An Auto Show game, a Surfer game-Beach Partrol, The Player, A Hawian Game and on and on. All the games have wonderful 3-D looking graphics and Sounds. You can play all the games at five cents, ten cents, a Quater, fifty cents, a Dollar, five dollars, 25 dollars, 50 Dollars, 100 dollars, 500 dollars and at one thousand dollars. The game also includes a Casino club Card when you can gather points for player and then with those points in runs you through a series of things such as buying merchandise and advancing on from room to room, finally you can gather enough points, win a certain amount of money, play each game a certain amount of time, and also play an over all amount of time to get a combination (to a safe) and get a special surprise. Which I won't give away hear. This game is a bargain and is extremely fun.

Not for high-end laptops

I was really excited about this collection of slots, but unfortunately, it doesn't run on my laptop. I emailed Phantom EFX, but received no reply and ended up returning the game. It appears that it is unable to deal with the laptop's resolution as are nearly all games from this company and from Sierra.

I also tried another slot game from this company with the same results. I guess I'll stick to Masque Publishing's games which work flawlessly on my machine.

I couldn't wait

I could hardly wait to get my copy of Nickel Alley from Phantom. I have all of their games and this is by far the best. If you want some real fun, this is the one.

I read the review about customer service at Phantom. I got a response within an hour when I tried to contact them about one of their older games. It was not their problem, it was mine and they helped me fix it. You do need a little power for this game, but running it on a laptop has not been a problem for me.

Loads of fun.

This game runs easily on my Dell notebook. I also own the Masque CDs with Bally slots and the other Phantom CDs. This is by far the best of all. If you like to play the nine-line slot machines at the casino, I highly recommend this program. The graphics are terrific; the background noise is fitting; the bonus rounds are entertaining and profitable. Several of the slots are recognizably similar to real machines at the casino, and it's just plain fun to play them for max coin.

I loved this game of all the casino slot games on the market. At least you win - you can play from nickel to 100.00; the best part is trying to get into the prize vault. Still working on that. This slot game is the best of all the phantomefx games. Love it.

Promissing

To be honest, I don't have this game yet, but based on my experiences with other Phantom games and from reading their web site; I can believe it when everyone says it is the best yet. As great as the Reel Deal Slots was, and the difference of Vol 2, I would expect this to blow Vol. 2 away and be that much better.

My reason for posting this at this time is to remind everyone what some of you have been saying, namely to be careful of your system requirements. I didn't realize that the Phantom games take up really huge amounts of RAM and HD space compared to say, Masque's games, until I checked the box one day after having problems with Vol. 2 I still have the same trouble sometimes running Vol. 2;

That vivid detail, and realistic graphics and sound do come at a price. If your machine can handle these (and they keep getting more and more MB's all the time) go for it. The most bang you can get for $20.

Don't get me wrong. Ever since Slots 2 from Masque, and the re-working of slots one, (IGT), along with the Bally and the new Video (gold box). Masque puts out a really fine product, as good as any. I like theirs better than some of the others (like Hoyle) for realism and good running.

But again, Phantom's are the best, but with a price. The Prize vaults are what makes it. Nice to see that there is a bonus poker and bingo , too.

When I can get a machine with much more ram and HD, I'll be sure to get this one. But by then, who knows what those folks at Phantom will come up with?

Too Much Fun!

I bought this game as a Christmas gift for my mom this year. Lucky for all of us we had it with us over the New Year's Weekend because it was snowing like crazy outside but no one seemed to mine because er all were waiting for our turn at this game. It kept us all, ages 14 to 70, busy for hours and hours!

The graphics are just like Vegas and there are lots of games so you don't get bored.

BUY, BUY, BUY!

Excellent game! I gave this game four stars, because there are a few things I would have added to the games, such as a description of each, number of lines, max amount to play each game, and a brief description of each game. I don't like the poker games and the bingo game. Overall this edition is super. The graphics are excellent, realistic like casino slot machines, and the added suprise bonuses makes this game more fun. It is an excellent product for the cost. Anyone who likes video slots will not be diappointed. EFX beats their competition hands down. I can't wait for the next edition. BUY, BUY, BUY!
