Oh I do hope it's something that happens for like, a week every month. Only having a crown sink like this show up twice a year wouldn't be too helpful.

Regardless, I'm excited to see what it has to offer!

Prizes that I've seen are various levels of crown rewards.

Numbers I've seen: 50 crowns x2 x3 x4 x5 x6 x8 x10 x14 x20.

Hearts and hearts x2 are available in tier 2. These can be awarded while at full health.

Tier-appropriate vials are given too, and can be won while at full consumables but do not grant you any item in that case.

Someone else in my guild is reporting kleptolisks but I haven't seen any yet.

It seems like the machines have certain payouts per machine?

There's a kleptolisk "double or nothing" machine, in that it has 50crx8 or a kleptolisk as common rewards. Another machine has 50crx2 as a common rewards and varying levels of crowns after that. Other machines have hearts and crowns equally, and another has vials and crowns equally.

I have seen jackpot machines but no special item yet. However, I will say that I'm loving the care put into the design of the casinos. Royal Jelly bartender? Yes please!

Highest cr payout I've seen so far is 50 x 125: http://i.imgur.com/apoGVOv.png

The slot machines seem to vary slightly, and not every Casino seems to offer every machine. The first Casino I found had four machines: one for crowns, one for crowns/hearts, and two for crowns/items - but it didn't have the double-or-nothing machine.

The slot machine tooltip mentions reward items unique to the Casino itself. Wonder what those rewards are, and if it matters what kind of machine you're using...

A real disappointment, do I buy coins to high price for this? I lost 500kcr and win like 2kcr .....

Highest payout I've seen so far was x200 cr.

the special prizes for the casino machines, do they just mean hearts and pickups, or is there an actual special prize like some sort of accessory or costume? because so far nobody seems to have gotten anything like it.

I like the idea of sparks/fire crystals from the slot machines. The fire crystal star could depend on the depth you're at? Perhaps also an exceedingly rare chance of getting a random item (i.e. weapon, armor, etc.) from the wheel as well? It'd be cool if the star level for that was tied to depth too. xP

what we would like to see in the casino could probably fill a whole thread. personally, I dont care about the small stuff. what I would like to see is some rare items like a coin aura. possibly also reuse old items, like putting in gold items from steam and the now unobtainable (other by trading with other people) golden laurel. maybe add the unused gold dragon set too?

also, make the different machines distinguishable without first having to give them a few rolls.

That's mildly disappointing, but overall it doesn't affect me much.

However, I'd like to point out that a Mewcat sitting at one of the tables said to me "Can I borrow your weapon?" Aside from the either fridge logic and/or brilliance of the fact I was using Acheron at the time, being asked for a sword in the middle of a casino is just a LITTLE disturbing. Just how bad was that Mewcat at poker? Or dragon poker, as the case might be?

Question for Cronus

"Including unique items not available anywhere else!"

Are these unique slime-only items active yet, and if so what are they? I'd love to gamble and find out but that seems like a great way to get burned.

Suggestions for the wheel

I'm gonna be real with you. The wheel is really boring largely because I don't exactly have actual gambling issues for you to milk and just give you money so that you can make more gameplay and eat and pay rent and do whatever else you humans do to live. So perhaps you could make a nice trade-able prize that I can buy off of someone else so that I don't have to stand there in the casino gambling for 200 hours straight? Something that isn't 100% unique but is still slime casino themed that would be nice. I'm thinking cool gear reskins, meaning exactly 100% like the original in terms of function but now with cool sounds and pictures and whistles and bells.

If you're more open to ideas (like, open to actually implementing something) you could do something like...

1. Add unique slime themed gear pieces to the casino in lines... You'd get-
-The 2* for it, commonly in S3.
-The recipes up to 5*, at appropriate slime casinos. So 3* = S4, 4* = S5, 5* = S6
-Materials to craft it up, i.e. special materials.
-No one of these parts would be incredibly rare. All in all it would require a lot of gambling but never all or nothing.

2. Dead end players so that they can't just gamble forever.. You could win-
-A party-wide trip to the next floor!
-A one way ticket to Apocrea!
-A transfer to a different gate!
-The level being reset!

3. Totally unique reskins!
-Take a piece of costume/accessory and give it a random color scheme
-Force prismatic aspects to be of colors other than your knight's

4. Make players actually do something interactive besides press a button
-Teleport them to an arena and make them fight! Fights could include bosses (with tokens) etc.
-Open up new areas of the map
-Open up danger rooms for players

5. Handing out crowns is an umm.. "interesting" crown sink
-Hand out 1-3 slime coins instead! = more plays
-The various forge/primal/grim sparks would make nice placeholders

6. Encourage crafting with this?
-Hand out recipes for random gear, and bind them to the player.
-Orbs, fire crystals, stuff like that would also help this along.
-Entire weapons, especially with UVs would be huge

Anyone found an ideal place to grind for these Golden Slime Coins? I've been running Terminal Meltdown's first level for these, unsure if Tiers affect the drop rate for coins.

In reply to GM Cronus I would probably suggest that you don't have anything temporary as a potential prize. Crowns are a good start but anything involving Vials, Vitapods, etc. would be best removed or added to their own independent lotto.

You already find a lot of the aforementioned items while exploring the clockworks it seems to be a bit of a letdown to find more of them.

Sort of feels meh that you get all the casino's experience from one room and that's it.

If it's a limited time event it should be more or less sought after rather than overlooked. As of right now I'm having fun with the slots but I'm the same person who spent literally a minimum of 3 entire days farming the last black kat event, so amusing me doesn't take much.

It would be neat if every type of machine had a different sort of "grand prize". A good thing to use would be the contents of forge prize boxes (fire crystals, orbs, sparks of life, and UV tickets).

If we were to have entirely new wheels however, I would recommend having a "material" wheel, where prizes can have various materials as higher prizes. Another wheel may have something like a "jackpot" wheel, where you have a bunch of kleptolisks and extremely good jackpots at low odds. Something like shadow keys, prize boxes, etc. A "rarity wheel", where we get low star and single rarities for lower prizes, and higher star and numberous rarities for higher prizes. Imagine something like a single cracked fire crystal as a lower tier reward, 15 glowing fire crystals as a mid tier reward, and 25 radiant fire crystals for a high tier reward. I would play the wheel for that.

From the looks of it, people were spinning the wheel mostly for unique rewards. This casino would be a perfect time to implement an overcharged mixmaster into the game more naturally as a jackpot reward from stratum 6 casinos. If a "jackpot wheel" were implemented this would be a grand prize in it.

Oh and don't take our criticism the wrong way, we're just endgamererers or whatever you want to call it. We have all the stuffs but for newer players the event is pretty much set. Lets say you're doing jelly king and you find a bunch of these coins well you can redeem them for whatever the expected value is + some hearts, vials, whatever. That's a pretty sweet addition to the jelly kingdom rewards especially, and to add to that a bunch of T3 players like myself are going to flock there for that little bit of extra something because lets face it there's no reason not to do that. Generally a good little event to stir the pot a bit, it's just missing the big get.

I highly doubt they'd make jackpots based on your distance from the slot machine

They currently don't show up in the chat logs when picked up, or on the end-of-level/mission report screen. Can we expect this to change in the near future?

Please let us be able to actually sit in the free chairs.

You have no idea of how much I want this.

A very rare chance of some kind of accessory or Costume (Not Grand Toppers and whatnot). Maybe some new stuff, Casino exclusive stuff. Also another very rare chance for "Guaranteed UV Tickets" which could give you a certain UV (Any kind of UVs, sometimes you get lucky with an ASI VH one lol) which you just take to Punch and get a specific UV. These tickets could be tradeable, which can help standardize a price for UVs.

This stuff can't be like 1% drop though, it's gotta be WAYYYYYY less, like Darkfang Shield rarity so it doesn't overload the market with expensive items.

I would also love a chance to get past prize boxes (everything back to Surge) with the same chances as the other UV Tickets and special Accessories.

OOORRRRRRR... you could just have a Casino Prize Box in there that has these kind of things in it, like:

.5% chance to get the Casino Prize Box (or maybe even less)

And then inside the box it could be like a Surprize Box with some other crap added in like:

.5 or 1% chance to get some special Casino exclusive Aura/Costume/Weapon/Whatever
5-10% chance of getting Guaranteed UV Tickets (all kinds of them...as it becomes Higher like High, VH, High, Max then they become less common)
The rest of the chance would be getting a past prize box (every single kind of Prize box, excluding Hallow and Frosty and Anniversary of course)
