Games like this really miss the mark in creating a positive player experience. If this had been my first time at a casino and I lost my money on such a high-volatility, low-engagement game, I’d probably never have come back. It’s frustrating to see the industry leaning so heavily into high-volatility games, which can quickly drain a bankroll and leave new or casual players feeling shortchanged. While there’s certainly a place for riskier games, this trend risks alienating newcomers who want a more balanced and enjoyable experience. For me, this game earns a D- for entertainment value and an F for bankroll building. I think it’s time players push back a little and make it known that we want games that keep the excitement alive without forcing us to take on such high risks for sub par bonus rounds.
@@JackpotWarrior you nailed it! I used to love playing the new games but now I stay away from pretty much all of them. It’s not fun to blow all your money so fast and have no bonus or a crap one. I’m definitely losing interest and I used to love it so much
Well, thank you for being the sacrificial lamb on this one! I think I'll avoid this if I see it in my casino. It just doesn't have good line hits, and the bonuses aren't very good compared to the bets. 🤷🏾♂️
I like the one with numbers much better, it seems to give more playback. I love watching your videos, as I can relate so much better to your budget amounts. I also love your tips and slot knowledge overall. I can’t wait to try some of the games you play!
I can’t wait to try this game! At least once on each version! We fly up from Hawaii on Monday and I appreciate all of your content we have been watching you like a movie at dinner time soaking up all the knowledge ❤
Sorry off topic but I just got off a cruise ship others might want to know this 1. There were so many hand pays happening that there were multiple pays at the same time 2. The progressive jackpots are smaller than land based slots no $100k or million dollar jackpots Several $10k jackpots up to around $14k 3. Same games are available however there was only one double top dollar and one pinball 9 line $1 denomination and of course more huff and puff planet mola mo mumy several link games and triple red hot seven games 4. I meet a couple who has sailed 80 free cruises by gambling on cruise ships they rarely go home and only for a few days I hope this will excite you and your guests for your upcoming cruise can’t wait to see your video
@@donnaparsons500I didn’t witness a grand jackpot hitting but I did notice that there was a slot machine that looked like it did hit as the jackpot was only a few dollars above the starting jackpot of $10k The hand pays range was from $1200 to $2300 that I saw several times The casino was packed right after the ship left port
I like the 3rd one..entertaining video. I just started playing in the casino. Watchng them spin calms my anxiety. I can always hear ring of the bells even when im at home.. i think im getting addicted 😂
I usually like igt games, but this one I am not a big fan. Tbh I love playing the newer version of Samurai888 with the wheel, just seems more fun. ❤️ I always enjoy playing that game. Kinda surprised it’s not as popular as other high volatility games. Anyway love your videos and keep up the great work Brentley! 🙂🎰
We just got this in Niagara falls last month of Canada.... It's a fun game I didn't get Max my budget would not allow it and I still came out on top,, lucky me..>. It seems like a highly volatile machine but I wish you would give me some input on the rules of play... Since I didn't bring my glasses at that time..... Thank you great vids always informative any edge that you can get is helpful. Lol cheers .. [class of 61]
Everytime I get the itch to play slot machines I watch your Vids (or Vegas Matt) and save my money for the Craps table. Would love to see your P/L for just the $ wagered over the course of a year on your Vids.
Can you do a video on the “firestorm bull”? I played last week while on a cruise on the Sun Princess and I won $848 on a $1.75 bet. I know a lot of people say that cruise casinos have terrible odds, but i witnessed over 20 hand pays in 7 days. Last day of cruise i saw a couple get a $19,000 hand pay! I have never seen this kind of winning on a land casino.
I mean the volatility doesn’t really bother me, I know what I’m willing to lose on whatever machine I sit down at, it just seems like your bonus hunting though, not much in the way of line hits, doesn’t seem engaging ehnough for me to try it. If I did randomly sit down and not know anything about it I would probably do $5 nickels for $200 and not have more than 5 mins of gameplay and would never go back to this machine.
I like this game and have played it at both the Nugget and Red Garter in Wendover. I only put 20 to 40 bucks in though and am okay to give it a chance. The Tiger and Dragon together are a great bonus.
we played this at Choctaw casino. EVERONE was winning. We walked away over 2000 dollars playig 1.50, 2.50 and 5. The lady next to us was playing 150 and she had her machine to 700 and over at at times. it's a FUN machine
I’ve only watched you and Vegas Matt play this game. I haven’t been too impressed with this game. I’d probably never play it after watching, but if I did I’d play the second version. More paybacks.
The first time I played this was at Caesar’s Palace and won $700 on a $5 bet. It was on the version with the gongs on top. I’d say it was luck that first time because after that it’s been hard to win on that machine.
We played this one recently at our local casino in the high limit area. It started out well, but took everything in the end. It’s not as fun as I hoped it would be.
I don’t understand why anyone would play this game. It’s one of those “double/triple pop” type of games that just eat your money, and every once in million spins give you a good kickback. Yeah, that’s a strong hell no for me.
It seems so imporssible to get a natural bonus at this games. Plus when the luck has arrived with double bonuses you would think it would pay at least over $200 . but overall I enjoyed watching however I don't think I would play this if I ever see it at my local casino.. It seems so hard to win something big..
I played this game for the first time last week while visiting Borgata in AC. I won over $400 the first day within a short period of time playing $2.50 bet. I played the same machine again the next day betting the same amount and it cleaned me out. 😅
Just wanted to say that I love that you sell the lock cash boxes (especially the small one) on your website. I kept mine in my purse and was so glad I had it. Will be taking it back to Vegas in February and any other time going foward.
I went to Wendover Saturday afternoon and played Fire Link By The Bay and I put $20 and betting $0.50 I won on bonuses and free games over $250 but cashed out at $200.
I had better luck with this new machine with same treasure chest visual, but d I sent have multiple I ers but instead has a Crandon interim bonus with numbers on the screen that combine if vertically next to each other
what I noticed is that the panel changes for each bet choice - I don't care much for that either.. my motto is this: No pays, No plays get up and walk away . If a machine I choose does not pay me to play it and stay a spell I get up and move on. I have seen this greediness in games way too much especially after 2020. It is also sad to note that the few casinos I have been in do not even have the joyfulness of the staff or the joyfulness of the players like they used to prior to 2020. They do not publish the winners and barely announce them. I prefer to play a "real" slot in which I can change my bets at will and my screen does not flip to an entirely different game though it looks the same. And it took way too long after your 95.00 win - rediculous.
It can be very lucrative when its hitting again and again but most often your just feeding it just like Lion Link Flaming Pots etc. I think these slot makers are making a big mistake with putting all the wins in one bonus verses bigger line hits and bonuses. This why I like dragon link lightning link and firelink way better than any other slot game. Most casino goers can not afford a max bet budget and we are the majority of casino clientele and we dont go to the casino mainly to have fun. We go to try to make extra money first and enjoy it when we do 😅
If it was me, I think I'd get off that game at three hundred if I got down 23 hundred I would move cause there's no bonus games and again the line pays are too low

Thank you for featuring this game. It's extremely volatile. Added to the 'do not play' list 😀
Great video Mr.Cowboy! I can always count you being entertaining! Keep them coming!❤️
No bonus for how long ? Put this on my do not play list
For reals
Totally agree with you that if you receive a "luck has arrived" feature, it should be a bonus. Not a line hit that you can get at anytime.
I’d probably play the 2nd version seemed to have more kickbacks. Good video. 🎉🥳
What I think about this machine? I would put a restraining order on it. Stay 50ft away from me!! 😂

I've actually had some relatively good luck on this game. Hit bonuses fairly often, if the multipliers hit right, they can pay pretty well. I like it.
No bueno!😢 Goodnight enjoyed it. See ya next Sunday. Stay safe.
I got a bonus after putting almost $200 in it and on 2.50 and gave me $39. So it’s a no for me
I love your Chanel such great advice come home from wendover a winner most of the time ❤
Very entertaining session 👏 thank you 😊
Kudos to you for your patience with these games 😂 I wouldn’t have stayed that long. But thank you for showing us the features

Is the casino open when you're filming?
I don't seem to ever see anyone?
Thanks - love watching you
The casino is always open. We go to smaller remote casinos. This isn’t Vegas
@CowboySlots yep I know . But just seems like no one is there
this casino is super spread out. tons of floor space between some games...which is my favorite thing about this casino. Personal space. 😁

Way too volatile for my budget. Seems more volatile then Dragon Links

Tried it and found myself chasing it! Ugh! Hate when I do that!!!!
Vegas matt and crew were just playing this the other day
So glad u hit that double bonus.
Ive played it multiple times. I got both to pop i like the game when i win
Bigger denoms for this game do seem a lot more fun. Ive played this a few tomes and anything 5cent denom or over does feel like a better time
What does the shake look like?
Great job. I have played the tiger at low bets it was ok.not great
haven't played it and judging by your video, never will. thanks for insight on what slots to avoid!
Might try this game.
If I see this game at the casino. I'm going to run the other way lol
Just wanted to say that I love that you sell the lock cash boxes (especially the small one) on your website. I kept mine in my purse and was so glad I had it. Will be taking it back to Vegas in February and any other time going foward.
Thank you for trying this one. Too expensive, too few line hits, too long til bonus IMHO.❤
I went to Wendover Saturday afternoon and played Fire Link By The Bay and I put $20 and betting $0.50 I won on bonuses and free games over $250 but cashed out at $200.
Good luck 🍀
I think I would change to a new game after that bonus. Especially since it was a double pot.😖
I would walk right by this one in the casino
I'm filing this under "machine to avoid". Enjoyed and liked the video tho.
I always had luck on this game,Very fun.When it hits it likes to keep hitting,But when it’s dead it’s dead from my experience.
Good luck! 🤑
Cowboy i played these game next to someone i swear she had about 10 bonuses b4 i got 1
It did keep you going 😊
Hello from Seattle
I played it i like the tiger
Soon as I hit the like 👍🏽 u hit
Thanks for playing, sorry to say it looks like one to avoid.
Go!!!!🎉
I play enough HV games on-line. l cant imagine doing this in the casino. 😢
I won $500 on this took it to top dollar and made 1400 🎉🎉 both new to me
I don't know about this game awfully hard to get anything.
I like the second version better
I had better luck with this new machine with same treasure chest visual, but d I sent have multiple I ers but instead has a Crandon interim bonus with numbers on the screen that combine if vertically next to each other
Played it today was fun lost $100 lol 😂 but fun got the ransom three times but still not a huge win played $100. And biggest was $67
After seeing you play this game I would never play this game. I would like you to cash out and save the rest of your money. 😊
I would not go near it 😮
Cash on reel one for me

You can actually see when their coming out
You could have gotten a lot more gongs if you used the stop button
Sando. I wouldn't play that game with your money! LOL
I like it
I think you need to play higher denomination on that dragon game
Sure not a game that I would enjoy. This is one for Slot Queen!
If it was me, I think I'd get off that game at three hundred if I got down 23 hundred I would move cause there's no bonus games and again the line pays are too low
My opinion is from watching you play that it very high in vitality and very difficult to get a bonus
Let’s go!!! ✌️🇨🇦
Seems like a high volatility game
Anytime a game gives me zero on 5 or 6 spins in a row I bolt!!
This game testing my patience and I’m not even playing 😂. Like what’s with all the change. I need dollars. This games is giving mostly Pennies.
