Lucky Reels Slot - NZ Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Nostalgia lives on with the Lucky Reels slot

When you are in the mood for a straightforward online slot game fix, ditch the flashing lights, disco music and animated graphics that are features of so many modern games and give Lucky Reels a try. This reworked classic free slots game from respected game design company Playson offers hours of fun and is perfect both for those new to slots or anyone who favours the simplicity of old-style slots.

The appeal

Lucky Reels sets the scene for its no-nonsense approach to online free slot play with its plain black background setting. It carries this through with stark white reels and brightly-coloured traditional icons.

Simple to play

With just three reels and five paylines, this game is simple to understand and to play. The main control buttons are situated down the right side of the screen, slightly overlapping the reels. Look for blue to set up autoplay, yellow to choose the max bet option, and red to spin. Along the bottom of the screen you can see your current balance, the total paid in a win, and the total bet for each spin. It is easy to feel connected to the game with these simple visual clues. If you want to change the bet from its default setting of 0.25, navigate to the menu section on the top right side, where the settings section allows you to change this and the number of lines (default five) via casino chips labelled ‘plus’ and ‘minus’. This is also the place to go to toggle the sound on and off.

Simple symbols and sounds

Only five key symbols appear in Lucky Reels. These are the vibrantly-coloured double jackpot, which acts as a substitute for all other symbols and doubles wins on lines where it appears; the icon named simply ‘blank’; the ‘anybar’; the bar - solo, double and treble; and, of course, the iconic red 7. The sounds featured in Lucky Reels are straightforward, familiar and comforting, from the ticking as the reels warm up to the clicking as they spin and the catchy tune that signifies success.

Rewards

Every player has a tidy 5,000 credits to start. For such a simple game, there are a surprisingly good number of ways to make more. The double jackpot icon is amazing, acting as substitute for any other symbol. This makes it easy to grab three in a row time and again. It also doubles your winnings and rewards you with a 5,000-credit bonus prize, which sounds like a great deal. The regular payouts are calculated in the simply way you would expect, with three matches required to trigger a win. The most generous of these comes with the bar symbols (triple bar = 100, double bar = 50, and single bar = 25). Spinning 777 equals ten, and three blanks bring up the rear with one.

Mobile play available

Play Lucky Reels on a desk/laptop or on your favourite mobile device. Both offer the same high-quality slot experience.
