LAS VEGAS - (PRESS RELEASE) -- Ardent Zorro fan and Las Vegas resident David Ventura became the first player to win the $50,000 top award on Aristocrat's new Zorro-themed local-area progressive
Zorro winner receiving check games. He won late Tuesday night at Santa Fe Station Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.
"I'm a great Zorro fan and was there for the grand opening when the new Zorro movie opened up," Ventura said. "I knew I had to try the new Zorro machines."
The 53-year respiratory therapist said he had invested about $50 when he hit the Grand Jackpot, which is a static $50,000 award that can be won on any Zorro game.
"I said 'yes, it's about time'," Ventura said, adding that he and his wife Nancy will use the winnings for an upcoming cruise and trip to Mexico.
Aristocrat's Zorro linked progressive combines the excitement of a four-level progressive jackpot with six bonus events and four bonus features. This rich feature set is augmented with two unique, Zorro-themed MKVI™ 20-line penny slots, amazing graphics, and hi-fi sounds.
The four-level, second-screen progressive features three linked progressive jackpots and a fourth top jackpot with a static $50,000 award that can be won on any game. The jackpots are triggered randomly and the jackpot level won is based on the player's accumulated jackpot score. Once a player enters into the second-screen feature they are guaranteed to win one of the four jackpots, providing frequent wins and added excitement to their game play.
An extra 10-credit ante bet adds even more anticipation, giving the player the chance to win one of the Zorro random bonus features. Players know they have won the Zorro bonus when Z-O-R-R-O is spelled across the reels. The Zorro bonus feature offers free credits, free games, player's choice options, match-a-coin, and multipliers.
Aristocrat has enhanced Zorro's game play excitement with two themed MKVI base games, Zorro™ and Zorro Unmasked™. Like Aristocrat's other Hyperlink products, Zorro is offered in a complete package that includes themed chairs and bases and attractive signage. The eye-catching plasma LCD sign enhances floor presence and player anticipation by celebrating wins and playing compelling, full-color story animations of Zorro's good deeds.
Aristocrat's Zorro Hyperlink is widely available in most Native American and riverboat casinos in the United States. The game is being installed in Nevada casinos in November and December
