Thank you for posting this. I am aware of Ainsworth, but I personally have only seen them at Pauma. Joey I believe has played them at the Borgata. I thought of creating a forum for them but not many people have seen these slots so I thought it might be wasted space. Since it is part of Aristocrat it was perfect to post here. At Pauma they have several titles of these games and I will admit that I have only played them one time. I wasn't that impressed BUT remember I am starting to venture out more so next time we go to Pauma I am going to try more of the Ainsworth games for sure! I think they just might have some potential!!!

I see Ainsworth machines every once in a while, and usually play them because I seem to do pretty good on them. The graphics and sound is really lame on the ones I've played, but their fun, and the bonus seems to come up often enough.

I SO love these new (to us?) games! I didn't realize Ainsworth was a spin-off. Way cool!

I like how the wild dolphins also count for the moon bonus...sorta like how the wilds count on Great Wall. Sometimes I can't get in and I love a lil boost now and again! The first time I played it, I looked up and had 82.00 and I was like...how did I do that? Oh, got five turtles. A lot of the newer games don't pay out very well for line pays so I was pleasantly surprised by that! Every time I've played this game, I've about doubled what I put into it. I'm sure that will change, but for now, it's definately a contender for my "must play list"!

Dragon Power has a fancy multiplyer on the bonus round. I need to actually play it more to see how good it is, though. The graphics are quite nice, though! It must be really good, because I can't get on it since the first time I played it...it is always camped!!

Well, will report more when I know more!

Yads, planning some research at 5 am...

Got to watch 8 hours of gameplay on a bank of these the other day. Looked fairly hard to get in, but once they did, some of them went Hog Wild...and the bonuses kept retriggering a lot. Saw a lady take 1000 out of one.

Also saw a lot of people sitting there for longer than they should, not getting anything.

Looks fun, though. I really like these new Ainsworth games.

Saw a lady take 1500 out of a bank of these the other day. Gave me even more incentive to try them again! You get a LOT of spins on the bonus and it seems to pay fairly well, also.

Thanks for the website info! Here's the link to this one.

Thanks Yads, next time we go to Pauma (the only place I have seen these slots) I am going to see if they have Paradise Moon. They have several banks of these Ainsworth games. I have seen several in animal themes. I will definitely pay more attention

I noticed this manufacturer's machines in Greektown Casino the last time I was there, but didn't play them. Well, now that I see that Len Ainsworth founded Arisotcrat, I'll most DEFINITELY be spending some of my money on them. They might be the "souped up" alternative to Aristocrat's "just the basics" line of games. If they're fun and they play well, Ainsworth might be a manufacturer to watch!

Here's a link to the Ainsworth website, with a really interesting and detailed account of how Ainsworth came to be:

Even better, Ainsworth's website provides players with extremely helpful information about its games. The ones in Greektown are the Fire Strike series. Click on any of them and you'll get good, solid info, including how volatile the game is. They also provide demo videos so you can preview each game's particulars.

Hi Kali:

I am watching out for them ... I still have not seen them.

So I was tired of polishing liquor bottles this early morning and watched about 4 hours of people playing Aztec Fortune.

It takes awhile to get in...longer than you would expect with purple gemstones on every reel...BUT. All but a couple of oddball times, people retriggered 4, 5, and SIX times! There's more ziggaurats (wilds) and gems in the bonus...and only in the bonus, the ziggaurats count as both!!!

I saw a lady take another couple of thousand out of them. She was quite deliberately milking them. It's easier to do on Fairies, but if you have that sort of sustainable bankroll and any sort of luck, it seems doable...especially when tens of people give up, and then you wait it out.

It's sorta like Russian Treasures...contrary to the grinding theory...yes, it's a grind *but* if you know your game, you can mitigate your losses...

Like dude keeps telling me...Know Your Game!

~Yads, wishing she had that sort of bankroll
Oh, and the patience to play 10 to 12 hours every Monday morning...rofl!
