This has a tendency to trim the overall payback a bit albeit not too much since it is just that one jackpot.īut it was also interesting to note that the number of massive jackpots being won on the ship, given the casino’s size, seemed way above what I’m used to seeing in any casino, cruise ship or not. On the ship, most machines with these progressives had their top progressive frozen. While the ship is pretty new, so it makes sense the games would be on the newer side overall, they had some very new games, including a couple I personally had never played before.Īn interesting outcome of this was a high percentage of games with multiple jackpots, including the fabled grand jackpot on games like Lightning Link and Lock it Link. I took my fifth cruise on Carnival Mardi Gras recently, and one of the things that was unusual for me compared to previous cruises was the percentage of newer machines on the cruise ship.
