Minigames
Dead rising Cash Me If You Can close up
 

A Minigames is a short game which Chuck can play for money or prestige points. Most minigames that require a fee to play allow Chuck to win multiple times, such as the Casino Cup. If Chuck keeps paying to play these games the cost increases but so do the potential rewards. There are fifteen minigames in Fortune City, listed below.[1]

Killer Blackjack[]

Aces are scored as either one point or 11, depending on which would be most beneficial to Chuck's hand. Kings, queens, and jacks are worth 10 points apiece. All other cards are scored at face value.

After placing Chuck's bet and being dealt his initial two cards, use the machine’s buttons to either:

  1. “hit” (take another card to increase Chuck's score),
  2. “stand” (stick with what Chuck has got), or
  3. “double down” (double Chuck's bet and take another card, then automatically stand).

If Chuck's first two cards don’t put him close to 21, Chuck has got to hit to have any chance of beating the dealer. If Chuck scored close to 21, such as a 19, stand to see if Chuck has beaten the dealer’s hand. Doubling down is risky—only do this when fairly certain that taking one more card will make Chuck's hand a winner.[1]

Double down when hand is worth 11 points
Tip icon
TIP
The best time to double down is when Chuck has drawn a hand worth 11 points. This is because there are several cards in the deck that are worth 10 points, which would give Chuck 21, and nothing Chuck could draw next could possibly cause him to bust.


Lucky Marble[]

Use the “Choose Category” button to cycle through the various types of bets, such as red/black and high/low. Hit the “Choose Bet” button to cycle through various options within each betting category, shifting from high to low, black to red, etc. Chuck can place up to five separate bets per game.

Wild West Poker Draw![]

Dead rising Wild West Poker Draw 2

Pay the game’s low buy-in to draw a hand of five cards, which light up on the wall. After Chuck draws a hand, choose which cards Chuck should keep by standing in front of them and pressing the large buttons when the “hold” command appears. Hit the draw button on the far left a second time to swap out any cards Chuck didn’t hold onto for new ones.[1]

Trivia[]

  • The official guide considers the pyrotechnic help Chuck gives Bibi in One Hit Wonder a "minigame", although it is not counted as one of the 15 minigames.[1]
