Like Interactive Bonbons, Grand Casino of Fortune presents you a bunch of minigames. While Interactive Bonbons had plenty of technical skill on display, this game is a little more low-key in this department, offering a couple of gambling minigames with less razzle dazzle. Still, there are a number of interestingly designed minigames here, along with RPG elements such as characters you can speak to to unlock certain bonuses (if Lady Luck happens to smile on you), as well as multiple levels of progression.
The first floor is easy enough to pass with patience and mindless tapping. Subsequent floors present games which will require some brainpower to complete. Still, I gave up at the fourth (penultimate) floor as the minigame there was just way too hard for me. (You need to win the minigame three times in a row to pass). The ending is interesting, but may or may not be worth the pulled hairs to reach it. (I just opened up the code.)
I liked a couple of things here, such the various floors, the ability to borrow cash and the other folks you could speak to for lore or bonuses in between the gambling games. That said, you’ll need better luck than me if you want to complete this legitimately, and going by the number of omnibus ratings, not many folks made it past the fourth floor. Still, it’s something enjoyable you can play around with.
