Gameplay
edit
The objective is to win money at a casino. The player begins with $2000. Games include blackjack, slot machines, roulette, horse racing, Keno, video poker, and Red Dog. The player can talk to non-player characters (a feature omitted in the Japanese version), who may offer advice and clues on how to live the casino lifestyle. The game also offers $100 scratch-off tickets that players can keep scratching to try to win more money. However, if a picture of a bomb is uncovered, the ticket is void and all winnings are nullified.[3]
After playing, the player leaves in a limo, a Greyhound bus or a taxi. If the player plays too slowly, a warning pops up on the screen and if it is unheeded, the player is forced to do a certain action. When the player finally leaves the casino using the available transportation, the credits appear as road signs along the desert highway and the player has to restart the game.
