The reigning champ of slot games - period!

If you want authentic recreations of actual slot machines - this game is the current best of the best. Masque Publishing has worked out a deal with Bally's Gaming to include their Betty Boop machines as well as some of the video slots - most popular favorites seem to be Hot Hot Hot and 99 Bottles of Beer. The games are exact right down to the belching grandma in the beer game.

Other slots include Flaming 7's, Fire and Ice, Blazing 7's, Double Jackpot Blazing 7's, Money Poppers, Boxcar Bonus, The Platypus Game, Ball of Fire, Roaring 20's, and In the Money.

Most of these are your traditional three-reel slots, but it's refreshing to see the well-done video slots included. It's unfortunate that video slots from heavyweights such as IGT and WMS Gaming aren't included, but my gut's telling me that's not the fault of Masque Publishing. Too bad, because IGT and WMS are missing out on a lucrative licensing opportunity, not to mention a chance to get players comfortable with their games before spending real money in Vegas.

To the reviewer who says this isn't as good as the original "Slots" -- wrong! Although it was a decent recreation of your basic IGT three-reel slots, the graphics in this game are much cleaner and the sound quality is a thousand times better.

Hats off to Masque Publishing --- great game! And by the way, if you like video poker, their Multiplay Video Poker game is excellent, too!

Masque Does it Again

Way to go, Masque! Slots 2 is definitely a must have for slot enthusiasts. Having played many of the Bally machines in casinos, these replicas are as close as you can get without losing (or winning) real cash. I love the Betty Boop themes. The artwork, sound effects, and payouts are great. I really love the video slots. 99 Bottles of Beer and Play the Market are my favorites. I did hit a top payout on Boxcar Bonus, and the flashing blue "call attendant" screen is realistic. I'd only wish that these machines were in a casino envrionment rather than just going from machine to machine, but other than that, this is perfect. I agree with the other reviews: Bring out WMS gaming (Jackpot Stampede, Boom, Winning Bid, Jackpot Party, etc) would be fine additions. Too bad Masque can't include Monopoly slots, which is already published (and not even close to what Masque can do).

Video Slots and Betty Boop!!

This is soooo much better than Slots 1. The graphics on the first were good, but the screen was too small (they tried to get the whole machine on your viewer). I love the addition of the multiline video slots, my personal favorite, with their cool bonus rounds. You even keep your money, something missing from the first game.

All the Betty Boops are here (even some I've never seen in Mississippi and Atlantic City). My only complaint? It doesn't go "boop boop be doop" like the ones I've played.

As to the complaint about payoffs, there is a "high pay" option. Although I haven't hit the progressives as yet, I have done quite well with payoffs. If you love slots and video slots, buy this program. It is well worth the money.

I hope this begins a trend with the first Slots being IGT and this one Bally. May I request WMS for the next collection? I definitely want the Stampede reeler and their adorable multiline slots!!

Bravo, Masque!!

I love it!!!

I purchased Slots 2 because they had the Roaring 20's slot machine (my favorite) and a host of others. This game is the best! I own Avery Cardoza (poor graphics) 500 slots, Hoyle Casino and Caesar's Palace (could have been better), and Masque is the best.

I have to take off one star because you have to keep putting in the CD in order to play the game, even though you already installed it in your hard drive. The other reason is they do not have enough 5 line machines in this one. There are only 2 five line machines, about 3 nine line machines and everything else is one line machines. I am also looking forward to purchasing the first Slots game from Masque. But until then, I love this game and it makes you feel like you're at a real casino.

Just like being there

The wife and I live 200 miles from Vegas and we try to go about twice a year. The slots are just like the ones in the casino's,the pay off is very realistic. We especilly like the five reel nine line slots, what is nice is you can bet the max and really have fun. I did play the flamming 7's, and won $57,500.00 what a blast to bad it was make belive.

Wow we had played their previous version and had thought that was fun, but this sure topped their old version. New games, more video slots with those terrific bonus rounds. If you like casino gaming you'll love this software. It will bring hours of entertainment to you and your family. Their latest release(Slots From Bally Gaming) is also a five star hit. They all have realistic graphics and are easily installed on windows 2000 and windows 98.

Very Fun!!!

This is a companion to Slots By Bally, and it is almost as fun as the original, Slots by Bally has plenty of regular slots but also have 20 plus Video Slots with Bonus Payouts which are extremely fun. On Slots 2 we have 6 Video Slots with Bonus Payouts and they are 99 Bottles of Beer, Boxcar Bonus, Hot Hot Hot, Money Poppers, Play the Market and The Platypus Game; All are very fun and I find I play these the most. One negative is you can play them only in 5 cents, Quarter and One Dollar modes and not five buck mode like on Slots By Bally (I like betting $225 a hand when its not real LOL). But the graphics are great and there machines are very fun. This Disk Slots 2 has a lot of slots you will find in casinos like, All American, Ball of Fire, Betty BoopTM All American Girl, Betty Boop'sTM Big Hit, Betty Boop'sTM Double Jackpot, Betty Boop'sTM Re-Spin Roundup, Black and White 5 Times Pay, Black and White Double Jackpot, Black Velvet, Blazing 7s, Blazing 7s - $5, Blazing 7s - 3 Coin, Blazing 7s Reel Gems, Bonus Blazing 7s, Bonus Times, Born to BoopTM and many others. If you into slots this is a great game, overall I prefer Slots By Bally better; but I like this one (Bally 2) as well.

A Sure Winner

Masque has once again provided us with real slots like one finds in actual casinos. For the first time they have included 9-line 45 coin machines and "linked" progressives that one can really win (I hit 2 million on Born to Boop!!!). I think Slots 2 is even more fun than the orginal Slots program. Both Slots and Slots 2 are well worth the investment if you are an inveterate slot machine player. If you can't go to a real casino, this is the next best thing!

Excellent Gambling Experience

I live in Nevada and play the real slot machines often. I've also played inferior PC slot machine games for years, but Slots and Slots II by far is the closest to the real thing. The symbols are realistic, sounds, etc. I hope the future Slots III game will contain Boom, Frog Prince, Cleopatra, and other 5 wheel video slot machines, and video poker of course. Slots II has very realistic play.

Haven't played any better than SLOTS 2.

Beware of SLOTS 2!! It will take over your life! Very realistic and a lot of fun to play. Excellent graphics and sound. We never miss having a SLOTS 2 competition "every night" just before bedtime. A great way to end the day. Looking forward to the arrival of SLOTS 3.
