To be honest charles, i've never really seen the point myself, even when
sounds are fun, unless they're part of a larger game such as the one in
Grizly gulch or KoL.

Slot machine games would be just as much fun as slot machines are, because
of their randomness. People would look for a slot machine game for the
same reason they would look for a slot machine. They're a fun little bit
of entertainment. It doesn't take skill to play them. Of course, you
won't get rich or go broke using a slot machine game, but the sounds and
the outcome might be fun.

Hi mary anne.
I thought it best to answer this on list sinse then we can have other
people's in put, and there really is little reason to discuss this
privately.
Jim kitchin on www.kitchinsincc.net probably has the closest thing to a
pure slot machine in his casino game, which also has craps and blackjack.
As they are totally random and don't really have any control on the part
of a player, it'd be a little pointless someone making a stand alone slot
machine game, but Slot machine have also however featured in many other
games, some online brouser games such as Kingdom of Loathing, torn city
and muelsfel rise of the golems (see the audiogames.net db for details),
have slots as part of the games where you can play and win in game money.
Probably the best slot machine adaptation is in the action/adventure game
grizly gulch from bavisoft, though again it's only one part of a larger
game, and really doesn't serve too much purpose.
However sinse tere is no legal way to get hold of grizly gulch anymore as
bavisoft are just about dead that probably doesn't help.
So Jim's game is probably your best bet, ---- though I'm afraid to be
honest I'm a little confused as to why your looking for a slot machine,
sinse essentially it's a random choice that the player has no ability to
control the outcome, which can make for a rather frustrating game.
Beware the Grue!
