We players are seeing Aruze slots more and more often in the casinos where we play. And according to recent news releases, we'll soon be seeing them on Carnival cruise ships as well. This month three Carnival liners -- Carnival Pride, Carnival Fantasy, and Ruby Princess -- will set sail with two of Aruze's newest Cube-x Vertical games Tower Stack Lion and Tower Stack Dragon aboard. But you don't need to sign up for a Carnival Cruise to view these Aruze games - all you need to do is visit booth 2659 at G2E.
Aruze Gaming America
Booth 2659
I recognize Aruze games on the casino floor by their bright lights and tinny carnival sounds. They are also the games that shout out information such as the number of spins you have remaining when you are in the bonuses. Hopefully the company will tone down those distinguishing features somewhat.
Last year Aruze broadened its slot portfolio with the Cube-x cabinet, a millennial-friendly slot format designed to appeal to the younger demographic. The games had an ultra-fast processor driving intensified lighting, high def LCD touch-screen monitors and button panels, and custom LCD toppers. This year the company is doubling down in a new premium cabinet, the Cube - x Vertical. The cabinets will contain a pair of games: Tower Stack Lion and Tower Stack Dragon. I don't know, but I suspect these games are upgrades of current games Ultra Stack Lion and Ultra Stack Dragon.
Here is a picture of the new Vertical Tower Stack Dragon.

Both games use the extra-long top monitor to display three individual four-by-five reel sets, stacked vertically. The player can activate all three of the 50-line frames for 150 pay lines on each spin. Betting the Plus Factor adds a selectable play area and turns all symbols on the 5th reel wild.
Five games in the Tower Stack Feature series will be shown at G2E: Lion, Dragon, Panda, Rose, and Bison. Half a dozen titles will be displayed in the Cube-x Ultimate cabinet, the company's first stepper cabinet incorporating a mechanical bonus wheel. These six are titles in the 999.9 Gold Wheel Series - Super Vault, Diamond Desire, Money Rush, Royal Crown, Gold Legend, and Bags of Cash. They are all equipped with roulette-style reels and feature four levels of progressives won through the wheel-spin bonus.

Aruze has 15 titles on the Cube-x Innovator, a stepper platform that features Radiant Reels. Titles include Infinite 7 Diamond, Beautiful Dancing Dragon Spirit, Gold on Gold, and the Burning Hot Jackpot Series: Apex Tiger, Howling Wolf, Aztec Sol and the Great Inca. There are also two red dice games: Red Dice Wild, and Red Dice Wild Deluxe.
Their core video series of 23 title will also be on display at G2E. Highlights include several Asian-themed games such as Fu Jin and Raijn. You can wager more for more paying symbols with a feature boost ante bet in the Coat of Arms Series: Griffin, Pegasus, and Guardian. A group of four "Extreme" games (Extreme Dragon, Phoenix, Kylin, or Tortoise) include progressives won through a picking bonus. There is also a five-game Happy Festival Chinese Gods series.
Lastly, the number of e-games such as craps, baccarat, and roulette electronic tables will be increasing. If you like table games, you may want to look for Big Wheel Premium which is essentially an automated Big Wheel Six linked to five electronic wagering stations. The e-tables will contribute to a total of 180 games at the Aruze Gaming America's booth. Stop and take a look at booth 2659 September 27 and 28 at this year's G2E.
