Yes. UK fruit machines provide a certain amount of control over the reels by randomly giving you the opportunity to either hold one or more reels at their initial values, or nudge one or more reels to adjacent symbols to wind up with a better outcome.
Fruit machines also provide a bonus board or bonus trail feature that comes into play at random intervals. The board/trail looks a bit like a racetrack of squares that are quickly lit and unlit as though a vehicle were traveling around the track. You attempt to stop the game when the most lucrative square is lit, and are rewarded whatever bonus the lit square describes.
Another striking fruit machine feature is the cash ladder in which symbols arranged vertically are rapidly lit and unlit successively, and your goal is to stop the action when the highest symbol is lit, which corresponds to the highest real cash win.
