&DESC-SLOTS slot machine=%tThis is a rusty old antique of a slot machine. Heavy and cumbersome, mostly of metal. Someone has slapped flat-vids onto the outside, like so many oval and rectangular decals. These show scenes from various documentaries and movies of the Titanic. The slot which once took quarters now accepts money cards and nuyen. Still, when you pull the arm, you get a satisfying clanking and feeling of gears cranking and wheels turning.
