Jackpot is a single player slot machine game. The player starts out with $20. Pressing a number key (0-9) allows the player to bet that amount. The slot machine automatically spins and if 2 or 3 numbers match, the player gains that amount. “F1” allows you to bet double or nothing. You lose when you reach $0. Pressing “Y” after all money is lost starts a new game
