This game has no install wizard and no uninstall. It says compatible with Windows 98 and ME. When I loaded it on my computer Windows ME, it would not work. MShell21.DLL lobby error. Tried to uninstall and it uninstalled components of other programs on my computer, which then totally crashed. Tried to load it on another computer using Windows 98, still would not work. Contacted Masque, they had me return the product for a refund. I think there are bugs in this program. Buyer Beware.

So far the Slots from Bally Gaming is a good as it gets. Only thing it does not do is give you the money from the casino. Love it ... Masque makes the very best casino games. Never dissapointed in any of their poker, solitaire, or any of the three Slots... Great way to relax!!
GREAT GAME

As an avid slot player, and owner of many casino games, this will be one of my favorites. Found the graphics great, and the
many different slots interesting. If they come out with a
Slots II by Bally Gaming, I would also order that one. It was
easy to install and I spend hours playing it.
Another hit from Masque!

Masque has done it again! I just love their games! They are addictive,realistic, and fun! My favorites are the video slot machines featured on both Slots II and Balley's Slots! The Bonus round are lots of fun and yes you do hit them regularly even on realistic payouts. They have made the slot machines payout just enough to keep you hooked and having fun! The graphics are excellent! I have purchased several games from Masque and have been very satisfied with each! If the game is created by Masque then it is really worth checking out!

This is our third purchase from Masque. Having both the slots version and slots II we were anxiously awaiting the launch of their latest casino gaming software. We were not disappointed at all.It installed easily on win2000. We haven't had any program crashes either. The graphics are terific, the games are just like the ones at the casinos. Our favorites are the Video Slots with the bonus rounds! We were pleased to find even more video slots on the Slots from Bally Gaming. If you are contemplating about this software, get it you will be glad you did. Then you'll be rushing out to buy Slots II if you haven't already done so.

I never received this item. I paid for it but somehow, they put my money in a "fund" now they want more money.
Fun for everyone!

I installed this game at 10am Christmas morning and it was continuously played until 11pm by everyone from my 69 year old Dad to my 13 year old daughter. VERY realistic sound and graphics! Pearly Gates was voted the family favorite although Popeye, Las Vegas, Hot Lines, and Wild Fruit Bars ran close seconds. Only thing missing from the casino experience is the second-hand cigarette smoke and the real money!
A must-buy for anyone who loves slots!

This game is TOO much fun! It's by far the best PC slots game I've ever played. I don't even know where to start. The variety of games is amazing -- there are so many different machines here that when you first get it, you'll probably spend a long time just flipping through them all seeing what they are.
The video slots are just like many of the best and most popular ones you find in the casinos. Some of my favorites are "Soap Opera," "Blondie Double Feature," and "Movie Star Betty Boop." "Popeye" is another very entertaining cartoon-based slot. There are so many slots with bonus rounds on this disc that there's endless variety of game play, and you never know what's going to happen next. This is the best PC game I've ever seen as far as duplicating the experience you get in the casino. A lot of other home versions of casino slots are watered-down versions with very limited sound and visual effects, which for me are at least half the fun of playing the game in the casino. I love the little touches, and they're all here. One of my most enjoyable real life casino experiences was playing a "Soap Opera" machine at Mandalay Bay that was paying out like mad, and now I can experience that sort of fun right here at home (though, sadly, there are no waitresses bringing free cocktails here).
One of the best features, and one that's sadly lacking on many other PC slot games, is that you have the choice of playing either realistic payouts or ultra-high payouts. The former is more like being in the casino, but the latter makes it even more fun because you get lots of very high scatter pays, bonus wins, etc. Most other home games are either set at only the realistic or only the ultra-high payout levels, so it's great that you get to choose here on each game. It adds even more variety to an already amazing package. And it's a really nice change of pace from some home games in which the slots are so tight that they're no fun at all (hello, "Monopoly Casino"!).
It's great fun if you love playing video slots with bonus rounds in the casinos. The fact that it's not real money means you can play Max Bet on everything, which makes it much more fun but wipes out your bank account in the real casinos. It's also a better assortment of new games than I've ever seen in Vegas, and you don't have to put up with the smoke, the empty hoppers, or that inevitable person who wants to sit down beside you and yammer inanely.
I can't say enough positive things about this game. I'm definitely going to go out and get some of the other casino simulators by Masque. One warning, though: this CD is ridiculously addictive!
More of Slots 2.

Yeah, its more of the same of the excellent Slots II game. An even mix of video and reel; the same great quality sound and graphics.
So if you liked Slots II, (read all reviews); you'll love this one. And especially if you are a fan of 9 - line 5 reel Video slots. All the latest from Bally that came out last year.
You won't go wrong.

I have all the Bally Slots on the market as of this date. I am very pleased with most of them. The one thing that turns me off is the fact is they do not have an official web page. I would also like to know if there are any updates for the Bally games I have. It would be a lot better if the Authors would Visit a Real Casino and get a good idea of what is new on the market. I would at a Casino as a Slot Tech. I would Like to see some Slots come out like "Double Diamond 2000", "Texas Tea", and "Fortune Cookie". In my opinion the Slots (Popeye) is by for the best that Bally has put out. The others are good graphics and I like the payoff scale altho it isn't what the Real Thing payoff is like. If you like Slots just for playing or never have been to a casino before this is the way to go. Get it. Getting the Programs Registered would also be nice. I do love the Idea of NO CD KEY. That is a very big Plus in my book.
