Las Vegas comes to your home! Now you can gamble away to your heart's content without risking a penny, you don't even have to buy the program!

Slots needs very little description to play. Just type it in and RUN it. You will be asked to wait a moment before the title display comes up and there will then be a short delay before the one-arm bandit appears. From there on, just enter your bet. There is a nudge feature that appears at random and you simply press the A, B or C keys according to which reel you wish to nudge, or W to collect. All necessary prompts are on the screen.

If you prefer to use the joystick to enter your bets, then delete lines 310, 330 and 1060 to 1140 and add the following

1060 BET=10:REM GET BET

1070 S=STICK(0)
1080 BET=BET+(S=14)-(S=13):IF BET<10 THEN BET=10

1090 IF BET>29 THEN BET=29 

1095 POSITION 2,8:? #6;BET 

1100 IF BET>CASH THEN POP: GOTO 280

1105 IF STRIG(0)=0 THEN RETURN
1110 GOTO 1070

As all the best gamblers say before they take your money - best of luck, pal!
