Slot Machines News

hey everyone!  today i had some time because Easter vacation is upon us, and i wanted to see if there was any Easter slot machine tournament action taking place.  so, per usual, i head on over to English Harbour.

 

well, it turns out that there really wasn’t anything happening that had an Easter theme to it.  other than the bonus i just listed, but i already have money in my player account there, so i won’t be taking advantage of that this time.

of course, there is some slot machine tournament action taking place.  one of the tournaments is using the Fat Cat slot machine.  so, i thought after playing it for a while, i’d put up a review of the slot.

Fat Cat Video Slot Machine

the slot is a five reel, video slot game.  and, like most of the video slots, there are plenty of paylines.  in fact, there are 20 PAYLINES.  you can activate all twenty if you’d like, or you can choose to just activate a few of them.

of course you need to wager a coin on each line in order to activate it.  the game only let’s you wager one coin per line, so you won’t ba able to say, set the coin size at a nickel and then wager 3 coins per line.

speaking of coin size, you can change the coins from one penny up to $5 per coin, which at 20 paylines means wagering $100 on each spin.  of course that’s beyond my bankroll for playing for cash.  but, it’s nice that the machine let’s you “swing deep” like that in a tournament.

the machine has some basic symbols on the reels (”card ranks” of 9 through King), and a few more powerful symbols.  the WILD symbol is the FAT CAT symbol.  it’ll substitute for all but the scatter symbol.   

the Scatter Symbol is the Dollar Sign, and if you land three or more of them you’ll unlock the BONUS GAME.

I’m not sure how to describe the bonus game.  it’s a screen with 8 money bags, and you pick bags to reveal the prize behind them (in them?).  but when i unlocked it, i simply chose one bag at a time until i picked  them all.  so it’s not like there was some game-stopper symbol that i was trying to avoid.  or as if i could only choose three and was hoping to find the ones with the really big prizes.

i’m ok with it though because when i unlocked the bonus screen it turned into really quite a prize haul, so that was nice.

here are some picts of the machine . . .

and one with the reels . . .

i tend to play Vegas Technology games at English Harbour, but you can play them at Superslots or V.I.P. Slots as well.
