WMS Gaming had a big hit with "Cascading Reels" and titles like, "Kaboom" and "All That Glitters". It's that sprit of innovation that has ushered in a new concept of video slot called, "Wrap Around Pays". Basically, each 20 credit bet buys 20-lines on a starting reel. The next 20 credits buys 20 lines on the second reel, etc. These games are best played with low denominations, because they are credit intensive. If you are looking at lines that start on the 3rd reel, reel 1 become the 4th reel amd reel 2 becomes the 5th reel.

The effect is an "explosion" of payout when matching symbols blanket the reels. It's fun ... as always, more fun when you are winning.

So far ... the concept was popular with many. Traditional video slot players looked a little confused --- and others may not like the inflexability of buying the reels in chunks (you can buy 20/40/60/80/100 --- but not say, 55).

I think it is great to throw a little innovation out there. I would suggest you check it out on a 1-cent or 2-cent denom.
