Raging Rhino Ultra by Scientific Games

This game features an African safari theme wrapped into a unique reel setup. It’s a ways-to-win game, which means there are no paylines, and wins are registered by adjacent symbols. It’s unique because it has six reels, which means a possible 4,096 ways to win on each spin.

Before beginning, the game offers players a choice to activate “Turbo Mode.” This is for people who don’t want to sit around watching reels spin. Turbo speeds up the entire game. There also is an option to activate “Auto Play,” which doesn’t even require you to hit a spin button—just sit back and watch the game sort of play itself.

Three, four, five or six diamond symbols scattered on the reels trigger eight, 15, 20 or 50 free spins, respectively. During free spins, 2X Wild and 3X Wild symbols appear on the middle reels, doubling or tripling pays for any winning combinations including wild symbols.

Also, you’re awarded a bonus simply for triggering the free spins—three triggering symbols return twice the total bet; four symbols award 10 times the total bet; five return 50 times the total bet; and six triggering symbols return the top bonus of 1,000 times the total bet.

In addition, there’s a “Bonus Guarantee” of 10 times the total bet for the free-spin round. If the triggering bonus and free-game wins amount to less than 10 times the bet, that amount is automatically awarded.

A central feature of this game is a mystery feature that can occur on any spin. Called “Mega Drop,” the feature is guaranteed to return one of three progressive jackpots, resetting at $500 (Minor), $1,000 (Major) and $5,000 (Epic). When a progressive is triggered, one of the jackpots is awarded instantly, regardless of the bet level.

Wild Nights by Ainsworth Game Technology

With a Vegas glitz theme, this game offers free spins and a unique prize feature for certain wins.

The base game is a five-reel, 25-line slot. In the primary game, before each spin, a wheel at the right of the reels spins to a “Crazy Feature” prize. This prize is tacked on to the pay for any five-of-a-kind win on that spin.

The possible Crazy Feature prizes include the five jackpots displayed at the top of the screen—Mini, 50 credits; Minor, 250 credits; Maxi, 1,250 credits; Major, 5,000 credits; and Grand, 10,000 credits. The prize wheel includes not only each amount, but multiples of the prizes, ranging from two to six times the jackpot amounts, and even several of the jackpots in a single spin. Each of the Crazy Feature prizes also can be won through line combinations in the primary game.

In the primary game, the “Wild Nights” symbol is wild, appearing on all but the first reel.

Three, four or five scattered dollar symbols trigger 10, 15 or 25 free games, respectively. During free spins, any Wild Nights wild symbol on the fifth reel expands to fill the entire reel. Two or more dollar symbols on a free spin trigger an additional five free games.

 

Wild Nights: Five-reel, 25-line slot; random prizes for five-of-a-kind wins; free-spin bonus feature
Denomination: Multi-denomination
Max Bet: 25.00
Payback Percentage: 94.02%

On July 3, 1966, Atlanta Braves pitcher Tony Cloninger made MLB history by hitting two grand slams in a 17-3 rout of the San Francisco Giants at Candlestick Park. Driving in nine runs—a single-game record for a pitcher—Cloninger remains the only pitcher in major league history to hit two grand slams in a single game, or even an entire career.

On July 3, 2009, John Kane triggered five video poker jackpots in under an hour at Vegas's Silverton Casino. The secret? A hyper-specific software glitch that let him replay winning hands at max stakes just by pressing a precise sequence of buttons. The feds charged Kane and his partner under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, but a judge dismissed the case. The ruling? Simply pushing the buttons a casino provides to the public—even in a glitchy order—isn't hacking. The exploit forced IGT to rush out global firmware patches, cementing it as one of the wilder legal loopholes in modern gaming history.
