This is a unique layout that opens the door to some fun features, some of which are carried forward from the original Money Burst line. The 2-2-4-4-4 reel set is retained for the base game, with 60 lines evaluated.
The Big Money Burst series is definitely in the latter camp, being an evolution of WMS’ classic Money Burst line of games (which previously had a sequel in the Double Money Burst). But in other cases, the game series are getting re-envisioned for a modern casino floor. So, in some cases, games have finally been getting re-released, like the classic Goldfish or Quick Hit Platinum. But some of the classic WMS games were disappearing off floors as old machines were retired. You’ll be hard pressed to find a casino without games like Buffalo or Cleopatra. Other companies like IGT and Aristocrat did a better job than WMS or Bally, for instance, of carrying their classic titles forward onto new equipment. Scientific Games has been on a tear the last couple of years, reviving a large variety of old formats, predominantly of the WMS vintage, but also from Bally, as casinos continue a major life cycle overhaul replacing many of the classic slot machines that have seen 10-20 years of service with more modern equipment, an inevitable step as some machines move beyond their serviceable lives.
