Bit different to the Adders& Ladders i know?. ADDERS & LADDERS VIDEO’ is a mid tech Arcade / Bingo MULTIPLAYER comprising of 4 themed playing stations.Leading onto the plasma main feature game where all 4 players compete at the same time.
SNAKES & LADDERS symbols award 27 way feature entry
(3 symbols on win line awards ‘Invincible Mode’)
FEATURE MOVEMENT
Movement during the feature game is via the dice mechanism (1 – 6 )
CASH POSITIONS
The player may collect the value displayed on the cash position.
LADDER POSITIONS
When one of the playing characters lands on a ladder position they climb to a higher level on the board.
SNAKE POSITIONS When landing on a Snake position the active character slides down the snake to a lower position on the board.
If the value is a cash or winspin position the player is forced to collect this value and the feature is exited. If the position is a ? then the mystery is awarded to the player which may result in the continuation of the feature game.
WINSPIN POSITIONS
Winning spins are awarded on the base reels of the players station. Each win accumulates an the total winnings are displayed on the alpha.
BOOST POSITIONS
Boost advances the player to a higher board position.
JACKPOT + RESTART POSITION
Reaching the final position on the board awards jackpot + a restart chance.
The player will choose if the next roll of the dice will be an odd or even number. The dice is rolled and if the player has chosen correctly the feature game is restarted.

The thing [apart from hardly touching machines these days] that puts me off machines like that is I know it will take AGES to get a board entry... it won't be like a hi-tech where you can expect 3 boards for a tenner - I reckon 1 board per £20 is about right. Plus it'll no doubt just roll JPs in and deny you the game anyway :)

I have played this machine too... though, don't use a plasma screen.. it has a giant light up board for the feature. (about 8ft wide by 5ft high) It's better when all 4 players are present cos you can all sit back and watch each other play the main feature and cheer em on! :)
I've played one in Tivoli arcade in Margate, and in Playtime in Leysdown.
See you all down there!
This machine is much more fun to play than those cruddy Party-Time offerings.... and Adders & Ladders seems to play the feature more often than PT too :)

The pic below is the machine i'm on about, though the ones i've been on have 3D ladders and snakes glued on to the board.... this pic looks like they are just drawn on.

Vivid have made 2 Adders N Ladders Sit Down machines, one about a year old with a yellow light up board, and this version with a Plasma display.

A random Party Time.

Lol, not only should you expect to spin in £2 (like the £25er) you may not even get the 1st win (being RANDOM and all that).
