Submitted by Jan W, Carpet and Jesse Mortimer Jan W The casinos will never be the same now that they've been Bewitched! A fancy new slot machine featuring the cartoon characters and sounds from the show is new to casinos for 2002. The machine is a nickel slot with the chance of winning up to $50,000. On a recent trip to Las Vegas, NV, Jan W. spotted the machine as soon as she got off the plane at the Las Vegas airport. She recalls:
The Bewitched game is a multi-line slot machine. When you win a line, it becomes animated in sounds and/or movement. When you hit certain pictures, you get a chance at bonuses, which can really rack up the credits and the screen changes to a different game. One of them is a situation with Darrin that Serena causes. Although you don't see Serena, Darrin goes through changes with every picture you touch on the screen. He turns into animals like a monkey, a turtle, etc. The point is that you get more points as he turns into an animal. You keep touching a square that shows how many bonus credits you get until the Samantha picture turns up. Your bonus round ends when she twitches her nose to turn the animal back into Darrin then you return to the regular screen. There are numerous sounds like a twitch (different than what we are used to hearing), dialogue from the characters like, "We have a guest" and "Oh my stars!" There are other bonus games that you can advance to during the game.
Being a 1960s pop culture consultant, Jan was obligated to give the I Dream of Jeannie slot machines, which came out in 2001, a try. The IDOJ game's bonus was a page of little Jeannie bottles. When you touched a bottle, a number would pop up letting you know how many bonus credits you received. You kept going until you clicked a bottle and Jeannie said "Sorry Master." Then, you went back to the original screen.
Carpet And speaking of IDOJ, Carpet from www.idojweb.com has been kind enough to submit more pictures of the Bewitched game, as well as a sound byte from the video slot machine.
