The Sopranos Progressive Slot Machine

Nicci Pucci: The famed HBO series Sopranos in a form of a slot machine, Darnell Johnson, you’re going to tell us about the new version of this machine that’s only been out on before for about a year now, right?

Darnell Johnson: Exactly, correct. Correct, yes. Initially when we launched the Sopranos last year, it was on our step of platform, very, very successive force. We want to go ahead and build on that. So we want to go and bring it out on the video platform as well. There are some subtle differences that we can go ahead and do on the video versus mechanical real side. We can corporate more of the video footage of the game. You can have a little bit more interaction, more animation.

Nicci Pucci: Hey Darnell, take me first for some of the features of this game?

Darnell Johnson: We have five different bonus games associated to it. So as you can go and see, they’re also shapes of different character scenes. During the beginning of a feature, you going to go ahead and get an element of the show itself. This particular one we call the roulette wheel. What the object here is to go ahead and select spaces to go and fill up the open areas up here on the top box. So we’ll go ahead and go at one, we’ll go at eight, we’ll go at seven. On this side, we’ll go at three, we’ll go five, and we’ll go nine.

Now the other two spaces are going to all be populated so go ahead and reflect those two areas here. So now what’s going to happen is, once I touch this area here, it’s going to go ahead and the ball is going to spin, and we’re going to go and see what – how lucky we really going to be.

Nicci Pucci: Great.

Darnell Johnson: In this situation, you have to be really good.

Nicci Pucci: Great.

Darnell Johnson: You actually won the capital jackpot level which was $27.78 so we did good. So let’s go ahead and go through the other bonus games as well.

Nicci Pucci: Okay.

Darnell Johnson: So this is the dance we’re seeing here. You have a little scene for the dancers on the bing. Let’s going to go and take us through and what’s going to actually happen it’s going to have basically dancers coming down and go ahead and create a wild symbol on various different squels.

Nicci Pucci: Okay show us one more door because I know that there are five.

Darnell Johnson: This one is called “choose your earner”. Here, in a mass we’re going to have you interact with me in a little bit on this one. What you want to go ahead and do here is go ahead and choose any of the Sopranos characters that support Tony’s.

Nicci Pucci: But I’m going to go and press with Christopher.

Darnell Johnson: Alright, so what happens at this point? He says thank you, you proceeds at the back that you chose him. We actually play to and look up. Based on their earning, they’re going to go ahead and get a dollar amount plus the multiplier associate it’s right. Now the unique thing about this one was that you have the opportunity go ahead and keep what you earned or you can go and choose and go pick another earner and win some more.

Nicci Pucci: Okay and you’ve got to do that one time?

Darnell Johnson: Correct, you only get to do that just once.

Nicci Pucci: Okay, alright. And you talked about progresses. Now tell me there’s a mystery progressive in this game, correct?

Darnell Johnson: Exactly. Last year’s model had a three level hyper link progressive associated to it. This year we’re going with the double stand alone progressive where you have your boss and your capo and we also have a third level or a top leveled mystery jackpot associated as well. That is a random hit. Player will never know when it’s going to happen or how it happened. Just again more added reinforcement to the play.

Nicci Pucci: Great, tell us why Aristocrat really went after this show in particular bringing it to the casino?

Darnell Johnson: Exactly. Sopranos itself is probably an icon in the United States right now and we really want to go ahead and try to associate itself to that. And working with the HBO, it’s been – it’s great experience. All the actors associate to this show has been very kind and gracious as well.

Nicci Pucci: Great, well it’s a wonderful game. Darnell thanks so much. For Game Watch, I’m Nicci Pucci, you’re watching Players Network.
