Introduction

Welcome to Spin & Win a Microsoft Silverlight Game created for the MIX09 10k Challenge.

Spin & Win is a multimedia slot machine game that starts with an initial credit balance of 500. The game keeps a record of your current balance so you can start it again and continue from where you left off.

Just select the amount you want to bet and press the SPIN button to begin, Good Luck!

Game Description

Initially as the game loads, it will display a loading text with a percentage complete. Once the game is loaded the loading text will disappear and the game will start.

Once the game has been started by clicking on SPIN you can use the Enter key, or change your bet & spin again.

There are 3 horizontal lines can be played with the default being line 1 only. You can change either the number of lines to place a bet on or the credits per line by clicking on the buttons at the bottom of the game. The selected amount is indicated by a lighter grey button.

If a play line is not selected it will be greyed out to indicate that it will not be included in a win.

Example: Line 1 Selected, All Lines Selected

If you want to "cash-in" your virtual credits you can click on the PAYOUT button. This will reset the credits total to zero and ask you if you wish to play again.

Win

In the example below 3 lines have been selected to play, with 10 credits per line.

On the top line there 3 apples. The total win amount is 3 Apples (10 Credits) x 10 Credits Per Line = 100 Credits.
