About New Year Slots

New Year Slots is part of a series of seasonal/holiday slot games published by Ultisoft, Inc.  Halloween and Christmas Slots are also available and others will be released soon.

This is a one payline slot machine game.  Up to five coins can be bet on each spin.  Winnings are based on the symbols on the payline.  A payline is only active if there is a coin bet on it.  A rocket up or down feature is also built into the game to increase your odds of a win.  There are also several bonus features which make New Year Slots very fun and also adds an element of skill to the game.

The game will detect the number of colors available and will use either True Color (24-bit) graphics or 256 color (8-bit) graphics depending on your graphics card's capabilities.  The game will also adjust to your current resolution and will take up the full screen.

Bonuses

Pick a Letter

There is a bonus game in New Year Slots.  You get to the bonus game when the time line on the right side of the game screen becomes fully lit.  You light the 12 parts of the time line by collecting points which appear on some of the slot symbols.  These range from one to three points.  For every point collected, another hour on the time line is lit.  Only symbols which appear on the active payline count.  Below is an example of a symbol with a point on it.

You lose all your collected points if you get a slot symbol with an "X" on it (see below).  When this happens, your time line will become completely unlit, and you must start over in your efforts to go to the bonus game.
