Bounty Killer info

[akogare.livejournal.com]

bugackt gave me a couple of links to Japanese blog entries about Bounty Killer to gather some more information and, well, I tried. There you are.

Translated by akogare for gackt_army. Taking out only allowed with credit! Please comment before and state where it is going to be reposted.


The story revolves around two bounty hunters who have to fight monsters like Dracula and werewolves and seal them into cards. The names of the characters are Jessica Birkins/Barkins and Gide Bellecourt (thanks to bugackt again who found the correct romanization for the last name!)

edit: I just randomly checked Yahoo!Japan Auctions and saw that there's also a DVD.












Some info on the game itself:
-if you manage to get the red seven in all three slots, you'll be rewarded with 465 coins
-if you manage to get the white seven in all three slots, you'll be rewarded with 375 coins
-There are also two specials in the game called Bounty Time and Bounty Zone where you can get bonuses
-There was a lot more information on the actual game and bonuses and such but since I never even touched a slot machine and am completely unfamiliar with the terms used there I wasn't able to understand anything ^^;
-The game flow is like this: regular game (with four stages) -> Bonus -> Bounty Zone -> Bounty Time

You can watch two videos of the machine being used (one with the female character and one with Gackt) here.


Pretty much all writers (they played a demo version) said that the machine is fun and as expected, the sound is very good *laughs* as well as the graphics.
One blog said that they think even Gackt fans who are beginners (with slot machines) can play it without worries.
