JITC was a rare machine. I used to play a dollar denom at the Four Queens when I caught play. But the MGM had this game in both $5 and $10 denom. It's a typical advantage slot, the main game being the line pays, and the secondary game being catching the jewels to get bonuses.
You can see the bonus amounts on the LCD screen at the top of the machine.
The jewels were on the reels, you can see a green jewel in the picture of the machine, on the third reel. You can also see that one green jewel and one blue jewel is lit. When a jewel landed on the line it would light one up on the LCD screen.
The standard play was to spin it off if you found the machine with 2 blue (25 coin bonus), 2 green (100 coin bonus), or 2 of the red jewels (1000 coin bonus) lit. Once you collected the bonus you made one more spin. Most of the time the LCD screen would come back blank, or maybe light up one jewel. But every once in a while it would come back with 2 blue, or 2 green, or 2 red lit.
The top line (1000 coin bonus) was hittable. Most of the time it ruined on you, but if you could float the swings that top line hit would come in. I hit it several times.
