Ruckus Roulette description

Gambling in a casino are associated much more with the classic roulette than with the "one-armed bandits" and the more craps, so the appeal of Villa Crespo Software to this kind of entertainment is good, especially when you consider that computer incarnations he has surprisingly little.

For the implementation answered Terry Hastings (along with members of his family, Andrew and Jane, who performed a large part of the graphics), and then, from the "Ruckus Roulette" you can expect a detailed picture, dominant in the appearance of bright colors and a fun and sociable virtual opponents. Those now twelve, including the dealer (and their biographies, this time in a separate menu item), but for the game of roulette can be seen only from zero to four characters (whose identities will be determined randomly) – not counting our own protagonist that appears next to them in the form not the robot, not from head to toe encased in armor of a knight. Despite the fact that the lion's share of the screen with EGA resolution of 640×350, as in "Casino Craps", is covered with a green cloth table with marked on it the field bet, the prospect has clearly improved: the camera is moved from position "strictly top" in position "on the side and just above human height," and at the stage of arrangement of the chips functional part of the surface markedly increases in size, not allowing us to miss.

The rules of the game of roulette it is hardly necessary to explain in detail: they are not only well-known and quite clearly reflected in the guidelines to the game, and is much simpler than in the case at craps. By the arrangement of the chips on the field need to guess what number will come up next on a rotating wheel with different cells and running freely in the middle of the bulb (clearly displayed at the bottom right of the screen). You can bet on a specific number (from 1 to 36; the payment in case of victory will be as much as 35 to one), and a group of numbers (odd / even, first, second or third dozen, the first six digits and so on: the odds of winning will definitely increase but the size of the prize will please less). There are also two colors – red and black, which are in turn assigned to each numbered cell wheel; a third color – green, distinguishes only one number, 0 or "zero": when the loss rate other burn. Unlike "Casino Craps", all attempts to test your luck and guess the result is disposable: after spinning the roulette wheel and the announcement of the dealer of the bet result win or lose (although they can always leave for the field and for re rounds).

In addition to the image of a table with a field tape measure and a ball on the screen - at the top - located and convenient window with information about the progress of the current round and our property; to arrange the pieces need to be in the Central menu to navigate through which to issue commands preferred by the mouse. After selecting the desired category, the screen cursor will jump to the enlarged image of the playing field, where you will need to specify your "unknown number" or a group of numbers. From settings, in addition to the inclusion of replicas of the virtual characters that is not a default sound that can be reduced to simple signals, as well as enhanced effects of presence in a real casino, pleasing the owners of Sound Blaster, it is worth mentioning the possibility of changing value of chips (which defaults to ten dollars) and two pure-play options: "European Wheel" disables present on the default field, the second, the American "zero", 00, thereby more increasing the chances of winning players and "Surrender" reduces by half the loss rates of the level of one-to-one if any of the two possible zeros.

Help though is available by pressing F1, but informative content at this time is no different, and the need for it no special: as already noticed, the rules of the game of roulette is relatively simple and is given in the user manual. But the usual Villa Crespo a function of counting statistics has evolved from a magazine of real rounds in a special mode, "Simulation": here you can specify any number of "blank" launches roulette - as with interest rates, and without them, and almost instantly obtain a summary table of the probability of falling numbers and win of different combinations, without risking your precious chips.

As a result of "Ruckus Roulette" gets a fairly positive assessment: nothing extraordinary, just a very comfortable and cute simulator roulette.
