Yep! Those canny people from CodeMasters have done it again. This time, the world of gambling and trivia comes to the fore, with four superb offerings to set your eyes alight.

First up is the excellent Fruit Machine Simulator. Ok, so it's been around for a few years, but that doesn't detract from the gripping gameplay.

Starting off with just one and a half quid to your name, the idea is to make the most of the mega-holds and the skill chances to boost your spending power.

Play wisely, and you could end up well in the pink. You'll need to be quick on the gamble button however, if you want to take the high prizes. Featuring all the regulars of the real thing, you can go for nudges, cashboxes, skill runs and loads more on your way to making a fortune.

Unfortunately, like all simulators, you don't end up with any hard cash at the end of the day, so don't worry if you bomb out once or twice, as you can always start again!

If darts is your game, then step up to the oche and be prepared to take on some truly amazing opponents in Wacky Darts. There are humanoids, barbarians, aliens and even drunkards to choose from, with a choice of straight 501 darts, or round the clock races.

Getting to grips with the throwing style may take some time but, once mastered, you're going to keep coming back for more with this one.

So you think you're smart? Well, give Pub Trivia a try then. Guaranteed to sort out the men from the boys, use your wits to answer all the questions on the first quiz trail, before going on to earn some dosh on the money grid.

Remember, you only start out with a miserly 10p, so get smart and make sure you get in on the cash prizes. With a host of extra question sets included, this one should keep you busy for weeks.

Last up in this epic collection is the ultimate Monte Carlo Casino bash. Take your pick from Poker, Roulette, Blackjack, Craps and the incredible jackpot machine with a staggering $1,000,000 top payout! Guaranteed to hook you from the very start, you'll soon realise how easy it is to lose a fortune in less than five minutes!

All of these games are presented in the usual excellent Codies' style, with great graphics and sound effects and, for the price, the Quattro Fantastic collection has to be on your shopping list for the very near future.
