Despite the current gambling industry crisis in the state of New Jersey, the Tropicana Hotel and Casino is working on full throttle. It has recently announced that a new type of 3D slot machine is to be debuted at their casino. It is designed and produced by the Italian company – GTECH, which is a major supplier of a variety of offline gambling machines and systems.

Two of the bonuses can be won in the base game and the other five in the Sphinx Bonus selection. If a player receives three sphinx characters he can enter the Sphinx Bonus selection. If he started with a high bet, the bonuses will be bigger.
Sphinx 3D has a unique eye motion tracking device which follows the movement and posture of the player and modifies the visuals of the game. The slot machine does not require 3D glasses and uses the amazing AXXIS cabinet – an innovative auto stereoscopic analyzer which makes images jump as if closer to the player, with a feeling of deeper distance and higher resolution particles. The players can immerse into the game enjoying the brighter and more fluent features and visuals.
GTECH has conducted a variety of user panels, asking slot machine players about their preferences and opinions with the aim of providing the best player experience. The game has already won three industry awards for innovation. GTECH was originally established in the U.S. and was afterwards bought by the Italian company Lottomatica around ten years ago. Recently it has started the procedure of acquiring IGT – International Game Technology and is about to become one of the biggest producers of gaming machines.
Grand Fortune – Slotland’s New Slot Machine
This month, Slotland Casino is launching its new slot game called Grand Fortune. Grand Fortune has retro-style, 5-reel slot and uses a classic slot machine box with clear graphics and lucrative attributes.
Growing Jackpot
There are fifteen paylines with players having the option of betting between $0.15 and $4 with up to a sixty dollars maximum bet for each spin. Anyone who bets over twenty dollars may play for the Slotland’s growing jackpot which often times goes over a hundred thousand dollars. To win the jackpot, a player must simultaneously get 5 ‘bar’ characters on a single payline. Those who hit four of those characters get a 100x multiplier.
Grand Fortune’s Features
The way Grand Fortune works is the following: hitting three characters of the same type on a single spin gets you free spins, which also grant a multiplier with every consecutive spin. So, anyone who wants to enjoy the game to the fullest must aim for those three identical characters (at least). Another feature that should be kept in mind is the wild characters – those symbols fill the spot of missing symbols by expanding and overtaking adjacent slots.
For the next few days the Slotland casino will be giving away match bonuses for up to forty five percent which grant additional play time on the slot machine.
Grand Fortune Tournament
The casino is also going to organize a Grand Fortune tournament where the highest scoring players will be given the total amount of $2,500. There will be an overall of 40 winners, the first of which gets $250.
