Money Mad Martians

[Scott]

(I did 'search' before starting this topic)

Oki any tips on this?

I played a few quid through it and have all the features sussed but not really sure how well it would respond to a force? Looks like a clone of Temple of Treasure without the barcodes?


Anyways any info on this at all would be nice

[piemuncher]

Almost impossible to force surely as the machine always seems to dump a crap feature on you if it wants to kill you. I played one that was seriously backing and was forced to take £8.....
doesnt look great but then Im probably missing a trick on it!..........

played this in belfast a few weeks ago, bloke before me put bout £20 in for nothing out i put £20 for £1 back. it was backing from 2nd or 3rd quid and that pound came of a super feature. it will happily let you gamble up the cash ladder but the feature exchange its always crap.

You're right about it levelling percentage by just losing a cash gamble and forcing that win or feature on you. Best hope is to get to the £10-20 mark and keep shuffling the cash and gambling..eliminating all the features as you go hoping to narrow it down to top feature or top super feature. Remember that the ufo's transfer over so if you have a couple of ufo's on the nudge side and say a win as small as £3 is available then take it and use the ufo's on the cash gamble side. It just doesn't plain force this one.

Cheers guys will keep the info in mind next time I goto the pub with it

Also I was thinking.. if it is about to force something on you and you want to sack the board cant you just keep shuffling till you end back at £1 - lose?

I assume it auto collects on Money Mad Martians or Super MMM?

[big_bad_dan]

you cant shuffle with one nudge

[dev001]

...is take no exchanges at all until you get £4+ nudge wins available, or True Skill on the Nudge stack, then it will be happier and more ready to pay Red MMM. All other nudge wins just gamble out to lose and do not exchange, until you get to good cash feature entries. That way the machine can't dump pants wins on you (since you can't shuffle to lose) unless the Cash stack gamble is activiated, which is rare.

Then you need to get a decent win and gamble it up to about a tenner, and then shuffle until a red MMM - do not take anything less. Often the machine will only do £25 on a red MMM, with afterplay, but most MMM capable boards give you the option for red MMM instead of blue so I always go for that. Boards that do not offer red MMM, shuffle out to a pound and take that - do not take the feature as most of them start paying nicely when the machine is happy.

Also, Red MMM does not auto collect.

IMHO, this machine is not a clone of TOT and plays differently.

The machine is not that profitable but if you know how to play it, you will rarely be down, as it is good at collecting money off normal punters.

I agree its not exactly a clone but it is very similar just not quite as good :P

Thanks for all the advice I will be sure to see what I can suss out to see if this can become a profitable machine if even small profit cus it is actually quite fun to play but I dont wanna be going down that route unless it is showing at least some profit/break even for when I goto the pub it is in which is rare anyway.
