Freeverse Software is now shipping Burning Monkey Casino for Mac gamers. Burning Monkey Casino is a suite of apps designed after popular gambling games. The set includes blackjack, slots, and a Lounge act to complete the casino realism. According to Freeverse Software:
Freeverse Software announced today that Burning Monkey Casino, its electronic gambling simulator, is now shipping to retail stores.
Burning Monkey Casino features five high-stakes games of chance and skill. Players select from up to eight animal avatars, and gamble with imaginary dollars or bananas* in five addictive games:
- Blackjack - Play with one to eight decks, and try to tie or beat the dealer in this traditional casino game
- Poker - Eighteen variations of this five-card video game provide hours of enjoyment
- Slots - Pass the time with 3-slot, 4-slot, and 5-slot games, with up to two holds. Big payouts are just a pull away!
- Scratch n' Win - Players can savor the experience of scratching lottery tickets, without all of the gummy residue to clean up. Pick from two instant win games, and use six different scratchers... including a Taco!
- 3-card Monty - The classic street game of finding the Queen is brought to life in vivid color. Keep your eye on the queen!
And what Casino game would be complete without a Lounge Act and a bad Borscht-Belt comedian? Burning Monkey Casino will take your wife... Please!
Finally, as an easter egg, a basic pachinko simulator is also included. To activate it, type "pachinko", and watch the hypnotic action of the ball take your money away.
