What are the most volatile (high variance) Pragmatic Play slots?

Posted on 26 January 2016 by Wolfie

In the last couple of years, we see a clear trend where players are seeking slots that massive payout prizes.

They seek prizes that can be as high as a million $€.

Why are players suddenly looking for those kinds of wins? Their hunger for big-paying slots is fueled by social media, where more and more streamers are boasting their enormous wins. Streamers get tens (or even hundreds) of thousands of likes and shares, and before you know it, everybody is talking about getting those incredible mindblowing wins.

Whereas, a few years ago, a player would be happy with a win of say 100x or 200x the bet it is now a consolation prize only. Nowadays, players aim for a win of 1,000x the bet or even 5,000x the bet. Or even a monstrous wins of 20,000x the bet!

Are these massive wins possible and realistic with Pragmatic Play slots?

Of course, chances of landing these extraordinary wins are not so big, but it is possible. The streamers have proven it, and on the internet, such incredible wins are often recorded.

So, this is what real gambling is all about, not about getting small wins but about getting massive wins.

The million-dollar question is, whether these wins are possible with Pragmatic Play slots. We see that Pragmatic Play has released more and higher variance slots.

The picture below confirms this. The red coloured parts of the bars represent the high variance slots and the orange coloured bars the mid-high variance slots.

You can see that the number of volatile slots released by Pragmatic Play, has increased spectacularly, especially since 2018.

The top 10 high variance Pragmatic Play slots

Below we list our top 10 most volatile Pragmatic slots.

In contrary to the famous slots as Book of Dead (Play ‘n GO) or Dead or Alive (Netent), the Pragmatic Play slots do not have such a track record.

For starters, these Pragmatic Play slots are not as popular and, as a result, less played. It is not surprising that not as many massive wins have been recorded.

Book of Dead or Dead or Alive are slots that were already released some five years ago when you could count the number of really high volatile slots on the one hand. These slots, therefore, became well know and were played often. As these were played often, many massive wins were recorded. As this happened, more and more gamblers were even more keen to play these slots. It’s like a rollercoaster. The result is that these slots are seen as very volatile.

It does, of course not mean, that the Pragmatic Play slots are less volatile. It’s just that these slots are not widely known and, therefore, still need to make ground.

Curious to know the most volatile Pragmatic Play slots? Let’s not wait any longer!

1. Buffalo King – a bullish top prize of 93,750x the total bet!

Payout rate: 96.06%

Variance: Extremely High

Maximum win: 93,750x the bet

Minimum bet: $€0.40

Maximum bet: $€60

With Buffalo King, the game is played on a 6 x 4 grid, with 4,096 ways to win. Here you can get up to 100 free spins. Imagine getting such a large number of free spins and (almost) a full screen of high symbols.

If you manage to get buffaloes on all reels in combination with 2 or 3 wilds with multipliers (2x, 3x or 5x), then you can get ready for wins of hundreds or even thousands of times your bet.

Of course, chances of bagging a win of such magnitude are improbable. But maybe not the wins of say 5,000x the bet. Time will tell, but for now, we dare to put this “beast” on our number 1 spot!

The maximum stake is $€ 60 per spin, but many casinos will most likely reduce that. The exposure would otherwise be way too high. If you spot that the casino reduces the maximum bet, you know that the slot is extremely volatile.

2. Extra Juicy – Pragmatic Play knows how to make slots juicier

Payout rate: 96.52%

Variance: Very High

Maximum win: 60,000x the bet

Minimum bet: $€0.10

Maximum bet: $€50

Extra Juicy was released in 2019 and Pragmatic Play is clearly following the 2019 trend of releasing insanely high volatile slots. This slot has a maximum win of 60,000x the bet.

The slot, a simple fruit slot, looks very simple. Many fruit slots players perhaps missed the variance of those kinds of slots. So, here is what they have been looking for!

The slot has progressive multipliers up to 60x, and it is possible to win up to 60 free spins.

3. Peking Luck – A maximum win of 180,000x the bet is entirely surreal, isn’t it?

Payout rate: 96.50%

Variance: Very High

Maximum win: 180,000x the bet!!!

Minimum bet: $€0.25

Maximum bet: $€125

A 100% surreal maximum win of 180,000x the bet. That is, in a few words, what this slot is all about.

With Peking Luck, you can get yourself up to 38 free spins, and these can be retriggered. Then you can win multipliers up to 18x. If you have a high multiplier and manage to get a screen of wild symbols? In that case, you got your life-changing win.

Ready to find out?

4. Triple Dragons – or should we say dragon blasts fire?

Payout rate: 96.51%

Variance: High

Maximum win: 1,000x the bet

Minimum bet: $€0.05

Maximum bet: $€50

Triple Dragons was released in 2018 and also relatively new. Here, Pragmatic Play opted for a simple but highly effective slot.

The slot is played on 3 reels with 3 symbols (like the old fashioned slots), and there are 5 paylines. Three wild dragons yield you a win of 200x the bet. A full screen, therefore, yields 1,000x the bet (as there are 5 paylines).

Now you may wonder why we have selected this slot in our top 10 list. For starters, Pragmatic Play has earmarked this slot as a high variance slot (5 out of 5 for volatility).

But more importantly, the variance is not only about the maximum potential win, but also about how often these wins are paid out. We have every reason to believe that the dragons are in a good mood, more often than you can imagine!

It helps that these dragon wilds are stacked, of course.

5. Triple Jokers – like Triple Dragon, very volatile, as high wins are paid out relatively often

Payout rate: 96.47%

Variance: High

Maximum win: 1,000x the bet

Minimum bet: $€0.05

Maximum bet: $€50

Triple Jokers (released in 2019) has, like Triple Dragons, a classic fruit slot machine setup: 3 reels with 3 rows of symbols and 5 paylines. The symbols are classic as well: BAR symbols, 7’s, clocks.

This slot is mathematically more than similar to Triple Dragons. Also, here the maximum win is 1,000x the bet and also here, we expect that the maximum win is paid out relatively often.

Instead of stacked dragons, you have stacked jokers. Worthwhile having a go?!

6. John Hunter and the Secrets of Da Vinci’s Treasure – the maximum win is as impressive as this slot’s name

Payout rate: 96.53%

Variance: High

Maximum win: 48,000x the bet

Minimum bet: $€0.25

Maximum bet: $€125

With Da Vinci’s Treasure, you need to be adventurous and patient. But if you are, you can get yourself the progressive Multiplier Free Spins, which is where “where the magic happens”.

Here, you start with 12 free spins, and the starting multiplier is x1. After each free spin, the multiplier is increased by +1, up to a maximum of 60 x. As it is possible to retrigger the free spins, it is possible to get 60 free spins and, therefore the maximum x60 multiplier.

If you are, then, able to get yourself a full screen of John Hunters shows up, you’ll win the maximum prize of 800 x 60 = 48,000 x your bet!

Surprisingly, the maximum stake is still $€125. With the maximum win of 48,000x the bet, you are talking about a potential win of $€6 million! Most casinos have a lower maximum stake though.

7. Ancient Egypt – one of the first releases in 2018 that set the tone in terms of variance

Payout rate: 96.51%

Variance: High

Maximum win: 5,000x the bet

Minimum bet: $€0.10

Maximum bet: $€50

Ancient Egypt has 5 reels with 3 symbols and 10 fixed paylines. The symbol you are looking for here is the Cleopatra symbol. She is the most popular person in this slot, like she also was in the ancient Egyptian time.

In this slot, the expanding scatter symbols give you a helping hand. If you manage to get 5 scatters on all 5 reels, you have a full screen of scatters. If these scatters change into the lovely Cleopatra’s, you got your maximum win of 5,000x the bet.

8. Panda’s Fortune – when you get yourself a screen of Panda’s you know that something special is going on

Payout rate: 96.17%

Variance: High

Maximum win: 20,000x the bet

Minimum bet: $€0.25

Maximum bet: $€125

Panda’s Fortune has massive potential when it comes to winning high prizes. Pragmatic Play qualifies this slot as a high variance slot (5 out of 5) and it helps that the maximum win is a dazzling 20,000x the bet.

With the maximum possible bet of $€125, it is possible to bring home a win of $€2.5 million! If you are talking about life-changing wins…

How do you achieve this? Well, you need to win 25 Jackpots (of 800x the bet) in a row. It is theoretically possible. Chances are, of course, extremely minimal. But maybe you settle for 5 Jackpots in a row?

9. The Dog House – every dog has its day, especially in this high variance slot

Payout rate: 96.51%

Variance: High

Maximum win: 6,750x the bet

Minimum bet: $€0.2

Maximum bet: $€100

The maximum win on The Dog House is a more than impressive 6,750x the bet. With a maximum stake of € 100, you can get a win of almost $€675K.

The game is played on 5 reels with 3 rows of symbols, and there are 20 fixed paylines. It is possible to get up to 27 free spins, and wilds have in-built multipliers. In combination with some premium symbols (the dogs of course), it can go sky-high very very quickly.

Of course, your balance can go down very quickly as well. It is, in the end, a very volatile slot.

Who let the dogs out? Woof, woof, woof, woof, woof!

10. Pirate Gold – Are you the next King of the seas with a win of over 30,000x the bet?

Payout rate: 96.50%

Variance: Very High

Maximum win: 32,270x the bet

Minimum bet: $€0.4

Maximum bet: $€200

With Pirate Gold, it is about:

Getting a jackpot (up to 1,000x the bet)
In combination with multipliers (up to 5x)
Spinning the multipliers more often

If you manage to do these 3 actions at the same time, you can really get yourself ready for a massive and incredible payout.

The maximum win is 32,270x the bet, and with a maximum stake of $€200 (if any casino is willing to take the risk), it is possible to be the King of the pirates and bring home a treasure of almost € 7 million!

Conclusions – time will tell if Pragmatic Play has released the most volatile slots

We listed our top 10 high variance Pragmatic Play. The list shows that the maximum wins of most slots are ridiculously high. We say ridiculous as these wins are potentially enormous, massive, sky-high (you name it) but perhaps also surreal.

Time will tell if it is indeed also possible in practice to get these wins. Or is it possible in theory only? No human person is going to do a trillion spins….

Will streamers show some of these incredible wins in the (near) future? Or will we all wake up and realize that it was all a dream?

We will find out sooner or later! But for now, we should give Pragmatic Play the benefit of the doubt. For sure!

What are the 10 most volatile (high variance) Play ‘n GO slots?

Posted on 20 January 2016 by Wolfie

Fact: players are more and more eager to play high variance slots.

In the last 2 to 3 years, we see that more players are looking for slots that payout wins that are more than just massive. Players are searching for life-changing wins.

When streamers get such a massive win, it gets lots of attention and likes. Immediately afterwards, larger groups of players want to play the same slots.

Why?

Because everybody wants the same massive wins that these streamers are winning.

Players understand that some slots have more potential for such massive wins than other slots. The slots we are talking about are the so-called high variance slots: slots that payout wins of 1,000x the bet. Or 5,000x the stake. Or even more than that.

The chance to bag a win of hundreds of thousands of $€ appeals to many players. And who can blame them?

Play ‘n GO is one of the leading providers and is one of the first providers to have understood this phenomenon. Consequently, they released quite a few high variance slots.

Look at the figure below. The red coloured parts of the bars represent the high variance slots and the orange coloured tarts the mid-high variance slots. You can see that the number of high variance slots has increased spectacularly, especially after 2019.

What are the top 10 high variance slots of Play ‘n GO?

Below we list our top 10 Play ‘n GO high variance slots.

Take, for example, Book of Dead. It is an iconical slot that is played so often. It is released in 2016 and one of the first slots with the stamp “high variance.” It is no coincidence that this slot is extremely popular. As it is played so often, more and more massive wins are recorded. As the gambling public knows these wins, so more and more players play this slot. It is like a rollercoaster. Once it has established a name, it continues to leverage from it.

But many of the other slots we mention below are at least as volatile as Book of Dead. Some of these slots did not get into such a rollercoaster, though. It is partly because several slots are still new and are just released in 2019. Therefore, these slots still need to make ground.

Our message is to tell you that there are plenty of other high variance Play ‘n GO slots.

Ready to find out which ones? Here we GO!

1. Firefly Frenzy – prizes above 5,000x the bet is not unusual

Payout rate: 96.59%

Variance: Very High

Maximum win: 10,000x the bet

Minimum Bet: $€0.3

Maximum Bet: $€90

Firefly Frenzy is not the most famous Play ‘n GO slot, but it is the most volatile one.

We have all the reasons to believe that this is Play ‘n GO’s most volatile slot, as we have seen several massive wins topping 7,000x the bet.

That is even higher than the maximum win of Book of Dead, which is capped at 5,000x the bet.

The colourful slot with flowers and fireflies might give you a different impression, as the theme looks quite soft. But if you think that is the case, you are completely fooled.

Thanks to several multipliers that can increase rapidly with this slot, you can quickly get into wins exceeding 1,000x the bet — even exceeding 7,000x the bet!

The downside? Your balance can evaporate in a whisker!

2. Book of Dead – Play ‘n GO’s most famous slot has kept its promise when it comes to massive payouts

Payout rate: 96.72%

Variance: High

Maximum win: 5,000x the bet

Minimum Bet: $€0.1

Maximum Bet: $€50

Yes, Book of Dead (released in 2016), is the most played Play ‘n GO slot. By far.

It is so popular as it was one of the first slots of which it was known to have such massive volatility. And remember that in 2016, most slots were low or medium variance. There were not so many alternatives available, apart from Netent’s Dead or Alive and Jack and the Beanstalk.

But we have seen many screens full of Rich Wilde symbols, leading to wins of 5,000x the bet. This slot has a proven track record when it comes to staggering wins.

3. Reactoonz – a top-rated grid slot with high volatility

Payout rate: 96.51%

Variance: High

Maximum win: not specified but 5,000x the bet

Minimum Bet: $€0.2

Maximum Bet: $€100

Reactoonz is a grid slot with the cluster pays mechanism. Several extra boosters give you a helping hand to get higher wins: top prizes are very often in the range of 1,000x to 1,500x the bet.

You may ask yourself why we have put Reactoonz on the third spot.

We have done so, as Reactoonz pays out massive wins relatively often. Variance is not only about the size of the maximum potential wins. It is at least as important how often these wins are paid out.

If you want a pretty good chance of getting such a massive win (and are happy to settle for a lower win in exchange for increasing your chances), Reactoonz might not be a bad idea at all!

4. Ankh of Anubis – the Play ‘n GO slot with the highest maximum win (15,000x the bet)

Payout rate: 96.20%

Variance: High

Maximum win: 15,000x the bet

Minimum Bet: $€0.1

Maximum Bet: $€100

This slot was released at the end of 2019 and is, therefore, relatively new. It shall not be a surprise that we have not yet seen so many massive wins.

What is striking, though, is that this slot is the first Play ‘n GO slot to have a maximum win exceeding 10,000x the bet. This slot has a maximum win of 15,000x the stake.

Time will tell if this slot pays out massive wins often or not. For now, Ankh of Anubis deserves the benefit of the doubt, and therefore we include it in our top 10 list.

5. Pimped – released in 2015 and still popular because of its high variance

Payout rate: 96.51%

Variance: High

Maximum win: 10,000x the bet

Minimum Bet: $€0.1

Maximum Bet: $€100

Pimped is all about the extravagant rap scene where gold, diamonds, diamond watches and rings, dollar bills and beautiful divas set the stage. There is nothing subtle about it: Pimped is as in your face as an online slot can be. It makes a lot of sense that such a theme is associated with a high variance.

And indeed, according to Play ‘n GO, Pimped has a very high variance.

We must acknowledge that the top wins are, in most cases, below 1,000x the bet. Only very occasionally have we seen wins of 5,000x the bet.

6. Holiday season – a massive win helps you to book yourself a big vacation for Xmas

Payout rate: 96.51%

Variance: High

Maximum win: 10,000x the bet

Minimum Bet: $€0.1

Maximum Bet: $€100

Have you ever dreamed of booking an extraordinary Christmas vacation? Go to Canada and watch the ice bears, or go to Norway and get yourself on a sled with husky dogs?

Maybe you will if you play this exciting Christmas themed slot.

According to Play ‘n GO, the variance is very high. We have seen wins in the range of 500x to 1000x the bet pretty often. Wins over 1,000x the bet are also possible here, and the maximum win is an astonishing 10,000x the bet!

7. The sword and the grail – released in 2019 but already popular thanks to high variance

Payout rate: 96.53%

Variance: High

Maximum win: 10,000x the bet

Minimum Bet: $€0.1

Maximum Bet: $€100

In this beautiful high variance Play ‘n GO slot, the golden grail is the wild symbol and contains multipliers up to 100x and King’s Arthurs Sword is the scatter symbol. These symbols can help you to get a day you will not forget quickly. Wins exceeding 1,000x the bet are not exceptional, and we expect that wins of 5,000x the bet or even more are also possible with this slot.

It is one of the few Play ‘n GO slots with a maximum win of 10,000x the bet.

8. Doom of Egypt – very similar to Book of Dead

Payout rate: 96.21%

Variance: High

Maximum win: 5,000x the bet

Minimum Bet: $€0.1

Maximum Bet: $€50

Doom of Egypt is technically a clone of Book of Dead, and the features are the same. The main difference is the (slightly) lower RTP, but not a reason to ignore this beast.

According to Play ‘n GO, a “very high” variance slot. Why not have a go at it and see if you get the ultimate reward? It is possible with Doom of Egypt!

9. Honey Rush – a thoroughly entertaining cluster pays slot but don’t let the bees sting you

Payout rate: 96.5%

Variance: High

Maximum win: 9,000x the bet

Minimum Bet: $€0.2

Maximum Bet: $€100

You might get the impression that Honey Rush, released in 2019, is a bit of a softy. The bees theme might give you that impression. But believe us, your balance can move very rapidly (downwards or upwards) and Play ‘n GO rates this as a very high variance slot.

The idea is to make clusters, and of course, the bigger the group of identical symbols, the bigger the prize. This slot has the avalanche mechanism, so winning combinations disappear and make way for new symbols. That way, you can get multiple consecutive wins with one spin.

It also leads to you winning sticky wilds, and if you are lucky, the mega big Queen colony. This is what you need to do to get the massive wins of at least 1,000x the bet.

Worthwhile to mention is the maximum win of 9,000x the bet, which is almost twice as high as the maximum win of Book or Dead!

10. Cash Pump – when you cruise along Route 66, you are in relax mode. Not with this slot!

Payout rate: 96.86%

Variance: High

Maximum win: 10,000x the bet

Minimum Bet: $€0.2

Maximum Bet: $€100

Cash Pump is a stunning slot that gives you the Route 66 feeling — cruising along the beautiful South West of the US with t’s unique landscapes.

What makes this slot original are the four sets of reels. What makes the slot have the potential for some incredible payouts are the wilds and the multipliers.

Cash Pump is a new slot, as it is released at the end of 2019. We hope, though, that this slot gets the attention it deserves. Not only because of the original theme and gameplay, but also because it’s highly volatile.

The maximum win is 10,000x the bet.

Conclusions – especially the last two years have been exciting in terms of high variance slots

We listed our top 10 high variance Play ‘n GO. The list shows that there are plenty of options if you happen to like to play volatile Play ‘n GO slots.

Especially in the last couple of years, Play ‘n GO has released many great high variance slots. We expect that 2020 will not disappoint the large group of players, seeking those high variance slots.

There is much more to play and to try than just Book of Dead if you love to play high variance slots.

And maybe you will be the next player, landing a sky-high win of 5,000x the bet. Or even more than that.

Which Netent Slots have the highest and worst Return to Player?

Posted on 14 January 2016 by Wolfie

Netent has always had a reputation for creating online slots with a high Return to Player.

Netent, one of the top online slot providers, is well known for delivering slots with a better theoretical Return to Player (RTP) than most of the other providers.

Yes, you can say that Netent slots are lacking innovation lately. You can argue that their slots are lacking volatility, but you cannot disagree with the fact that most of their slots have a pretty good RTP.

Especially compared to other providers.

Why a higher Return to Player matters

The higher the RTP, the better it is for you as a player. If, for example, the RTP is 96%, it implies that (in the long run), you will lose $€4 after every $€100 you have wagered. But is the RTP would be 97%, you would “only” lose $€3 for every $€100 you have wagered.

You can argue that the 1% difference is not so significant. But it does matter — more than you think. You could, for example, have a balance of €100, but wager in total €500 (you play with your winnings as well).

If the RTP is 96%, you would expect to lose: $€500 x 4% = € 20
If the RTP is 97%, you would expect to lose: $€500 x 3% = € 15

You can see that the difference is already more substantial. And it becomes larger and larger, once you start to wager higher amounts.

The RTP has nothing to do with the volatility (or variance) of the slot. Variance says something about the variation of the sizes of wins.

High volatility slots pay out more top prizes (but less often).

Low variance slots pay out smaller prizes but do so more often.

The top 30 Netent slots with highest RTP

Below the top 30 list with slots with an excellent (or high) RTP. We have looked at all Netent slots up to (and including) 2019.

At the end of 2020, we will revise the list, if of course, Netent has managed to release new slots with such an excellent RTP.

Rank	Name	Year	RTP
1	Mega Joker	2011	99.00% (up to)
2	Blood Suckers	2013	98%
3	Secrets of Atlantis	2016	97.07%

28	Hooks Heroes	2015	96.82%
29	Who’s The Bride	2019	96.82%
30	Arcane Reel Chaos	2019	96.81%

The best-paying Netent slot is Mega Joker, with a theoretical RTP of 99%!

That is, of course, exceptional, and the RTP can only reach 99% if you play according to a certain way. It is a pretty old slot and not up to the 2019/2020 standards we expect from slots nowadays.

Other slots that are worthwhile mentioning are Blood Suckers (RTP of 98.00%), Guns N’ Roses (RTP of 96.98%), Reel Rush (RTP of 96.96%), Jack Hammer (96.96%), Dead Or Alive 2 96.82%) and Dead Or Alive (96.82%).

You can see that even immense popular slots are on the list, as well as slots with extreme volatility such as the Dead or Alive slots.

The 20 Netent slots with the lowest RTP

Even though Netent slots generally have a pretty good Return to Player, it is not the case for all Netent slots.

Below is a list of Netent slots with a poor RTP, and there are some real stinkers on there, with theoretical payout rates that are not up to par.

We have looked at all Netent slots up to (and including) 2019.

And yes, it is also good to know which slots you can better avoid.

Rank	Name	Year	RTP
1	Super Lucky Frog	2011	92.90%
2	Jackpot 6000	2011	95.00%
3	Excalibur	2011	95.08%
4	Ghost Pirates	2013	95.28%
5	Hall of Gods	2010	95.30%
6	Arabian Nights	2009	95.62%
7	The Reel Steal	2011	95.90%
8	Mega Fortune Dreams	2014	95.90%
9	Strolling Staxx	2019	95.95%
10	Gonzo’s Quest	2011	95.97%
11	Spellcast	2011	95.98%
12	Koi Princess	2015	96.00%
13	Mega Fortune	2009	96.00%
14	Wild-O-Tron 3000	2018	96.01%
15	Elements	2012	96.02%
16	Temple of Nudges	2019	96.03%
17	Vikings	2018	96.05
18	Archangels: Salvation	2018	96.08%
19	Starburst	2012	96.09%
20	Finn’s Golden Tavern	2019	96.10%

You can see that most (but not all) of the slots on this list are either “very old” and released in the earlier years OR are pretty unknown. And several slots did not become well known, simply because of the low RTP.

But you can also see that 2 of the most popular slots (certainly top 5 Netent slots of all time) are on this list as well: Starburst and Gonzo’s Quest.

Why are there so many differences in the RTP of slots?

Netent tends to have a pretty considerable variation in the RTP. Why do these vary so much? It is not crystal clear why there are differences, but the main reasons we can think of are:

Generally, Netent needs to make a margin on slots. If they would “only” provide slots with a high RTP, the margin would not be high enough on a total level
Sometimes, players are not aware that there are so many differences and play a slot, as long as the RTP is at least 96%.
Providers try and see how far they can go with lowering RTP’s. If players accept slots with a lower RTP, why not trying?
Netent sometimes needs to make a considerable investment, in particular, for very attractive slots (think of slots as Vikings or Planet of the Apes). These are slots with enormous investments, that need to be earned back
Pressures from competitors differ over time. If there is more competition, it could imply that the RTP os slots improve. We do, however, see that the RTP of several providers has worsened throughout 2019. So if more providers lower the RTP’s, Netent has more “room” to do the same. And for several slots they have.

The picture below shows the development of the RTP of all netent slots from 2012 till the end of 2019.

You can see that almost all slots have an RTP between 96% and 97%. But also that more slots released in 2018 and 2019 are closer to the “lower” 96% than was the case for slot released in the years from 2015 to 2017.

And indeed, more providers are releasing slots with a lower RTP.

Conclusions – Most Netent slots have a pretty good RTP, but not all of them

We conclude that Netent slots generally have a better RTP than most other providers. But there are substantial differences, and you should always check the RTP of a slot before you start playing.

There is no need to play slots with a poor RTP (96%) if there are plenty of slots with high RTP (or close to 97%).

You don’t have to throw away money out of the window if there is no need to do so!

Top 10 best Elk Studios slots

Posted on 20 October 2015 by SuperBigWin

Elk Studios is a smaller slot games developer, who haven’t released many slots yet. On the other hand, they clearly live the adage “quality over quantity”; the ones they did produce are of very high quality.

While many game providers release new slots like a dime a dozen each year, Elk Studios prefers to take it easy. Around 2-3 new slots per year, that’s more than enough for them.

And yet they have been quite successful so far. Almost every self-respecting online casino has included the slots of Elk Studios in their game offering.

As said quality over quantity, that’s the credo that drives Elk Studios. Rather one well-produced, original slot than three moderate clones or poorly designed slots.

Elk Studios slots almost always have several recognisable features:

They have fun and innovative bonus features
You can play with fixed betting strategies
Very skillfully produced, with beautiful design
Original themes
Smooth spinning reels

We like to play slots from Elk Studios: they are very entertaining and can usually yield nice prices.

What are the 10 best Elk Studios slots?

Elk Studios is a well-respected casino games provider from Sweden with a small but impressive portfolio.

It wasn’t easy to make a top 10 of the best Elk Studios slots. And not so much the selecting of the names, but rather the sorting of them in the right order was painstaking. As far as quality goes, their slots are incredibly similar to one another.

Anyway, we finally put together a top 10 that we can live with.

Are you ready for it?

These are our ten favourite Elk Studios slots:

1. Wild Toro

When Elk Studios released the Wild Toro slot, they finally had the big hit they were looking for. With slots like The Lab, Taco Brothers and Electric Sam, they already managed to attract attention, but Wild Toro was their real breakthrough.

This slot, which is played on 5 reels with 4 rows of symbols and 178 paylines, focuses on a wild bull and the somewhat scared bullfighter.

The free spins bonus can generate huge payouts due to the extra wilds and respins.

Graphically it all looks stunning, and it feels great to play a slot where the bull is in charge in the arena for once.

[flytonic-button text=’Check out Wild Toro now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

2. Ivanhoe

“Ivanhoe, Ivanhoe, Side by side,

We’re proud to ride with Ivanhoe.”

Who wasn’t a fan of the black and white television series with Roger Moore, about the brave knight Ivanhoe?

The Ivanhoe slot was for us complete love at first sight. This slot mixes old retro-style gameplay with a modern video slot, and the result is phenomenal.

At the top of the slot, you see a led screen (just like those old pinball machines), and on that, you see win animations, movies and payouts. It all runs like clockwork: it gives this slot a classic feel, with all the advantages of a video slot.

The free spins bonus has multiple levels, and the further you get into the game, the higher the potential. There are also tournaments where the knights duel against each other, introduced by the sound of trumpets and resulting in multipliers up to 6 x.

Ivanhoe is not only one of the best slots by Elk Studios, but perhaps one of the best slots ever created.

[flytonic-button text=’Check out Ivanhoe now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

3. Vegas Diamonds

With Vegas Diamonds, Elk Studios continued the successful crossover concept between Ivanhoe and Route 777. The focus of this slot shifted from the Middle Ages to the Las Vegas strip and treated players to all the glitz and glamour that Vegas is so famous for.

The bonus features are equally standout: respins, free spins and a fortune wheel bonus with three levels provide excitement and fun at the same time.

We are huge fans of Las Vegas and downright love of a bit of gambling. It’s no coincidence that we couldn’t resist the Vegas Diamonds slot, time flies with this slot, that’s how much we liked it.

[flytonic-button text=’Check out Vegas Diamonds now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

4. Poltava

Where Elk Studios, in the beginning, was always known for cheerful slots, full of craziness and cartoon-like graphics, with the Poltava slot they turned a more serious direction.

Set on the battlefield of Poltava, this beautiful slot features marching soldiers, imposing cannons, and fearless horses claiming the lead roles.

The free spins bonus has sticky wilds on the middle three reels, and for each new wild it gives you an extra spin. The further you get, the more money you earn.

Poltava is beautifully developed, has excellent bonus features and can result in big cashouts. If that doesn’t that sound like the recipe for a top-notch slot, we don’t know what will?

And Poltava is just that!

[flytonic-button text=’Check out Poltava now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

5. Route 777

Route 777 is yet another hybrid slot from Elk Studios: classic slot machine elements interwoven with a modern video slot.

Let the fun begin with this slot, where you travel by motorbike across America. A kind of route 66, but with the chance of landing big prizes.

Feel the freedom, the wind in your hair and the adrenaline of Route 777:

A pounding ZZ top soundtrack
Respins with locked reels
Free spin bonus
A fortune wheel bonus
Win up to 1,000 x your bet

When you play Route 777, you get that “Easy Rider” feeling. Great!

[flytonic-button text=’Check out Route 777 now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

6. Lake’s Five

Lake’s Five may be a bit of a controversial choice for this top 10 list. We don’t know many players who like this slot. The theme is a bit strange (a furry bunch of animals that are going to commit a heist), the bonus round is complicated, and it all comes across as a bit too busy.

And yet Lake’s Five is worth playing for sure, at least as far as we’re concerned. During the free spins, you can save several bonus boosters on top of each other, plus the necessary extra free spins.

And then, as long as you get far enough in the free spin bonus, you may bring several big payouts in a row. The Moving wilds, Climbing wilds, Sticky wilds and extra multipliers can all make sure of that.

[flytonic-button text=’Check out LAKES FIVE now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

7. Ecuador Gold

With the Ecuador Gold slot, Elk Studios jumps on the bandwagon of the high variance slots.

This beautiful slot has an adventurer theme reminiscent of Temple Tumble and Gonzo’s Quest, but it also has some unique features.

For example, Ecuador Gold has dropping symbols, an increasing number of ways to win (up to 262,144 ways to win), a mystery (Ghost) wild bonus and a lucrative free spin bonus.

And oh yes, you can win an enormous amount of money on Ecuador Gold: up to 2,500 x the total bet.

[flytonic-button text=’Check out Ecuador Gold now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

8. Wild Seas

Well, shiver me, timbers! With the Wild Seas slot, Elk Studios has released a video slot with a beautiful female pirate in the lead role.

Go into battle against the established order, defeat the official fleet and drag in big treasures. Of course, you can also shout “Yarr!” “Dirty scallywag” and “Yo-ho-ho” in the meantime. After all, you are a pirate, and they talk like that.

Wild Seas looks stunning and has a very nice bonus feature with moving wilds, extra spins and roaring cannons.

[flytonic-button text=’Check out Wild Seas now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

9. Taco Brothers

Taco Brothers was our first real acquaintance with the Elk Studios slots. This cheerful and romantic video slot is set in a sleepy Mexican village that is completely startled by the arrival of a real bad guy, Captain Diaz.

He has forbidden eating tacos, and that’s something the 3 Taco Brothers can’t live with of course.

The brothers Pico, Pepe and Paso fight Captain Diaz and at the same time try to conquer the heart of the beautiful local beauty.

The bonus game consists of free spins with extra wilds, captured brothers who can escape and multipliers.

In all, a super fun and original slot.

[flytonic-button text=’Check out Taco Brothers now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

10. Hidden

Hidden is one of those typical Elk Studios slots: unique features, a bonus round that can pay out a lot, and a well-developed theme.

The Egyptian/explorer theme is reflected in the design, but also in the gameplay. The features are mysterious and surprising: you never know what lies ahead.

There are 178 paylines, divided over 5 reels with 4 rows of symbols. There are also stacked wilds, free spins with special symbols and mystery respins.

[flytonic-button text=’Check out Hidden now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

With Hidden, we round off this list of the top ten most amazing Elk Studios online slots in style.

10 awesome Las Vegas must do’s

Posted on 9 October 2015 by SuperBigWin

Las Vegas is unique in the world and visiting this glittering city in the Nevada Desert is on the bucket list of many people.

If nothing else, you should experience Las Vegas at least once in a lifetime.

Las Vegas is very much alive and is always buzzing and renewing itself. Nowhere else will you find such an exciting mix of the best entertainment, beautiful mega-resorts, magical neon and immensely large casinos.

Our top 10 of Las Vegas must-do’s

For everyone who is about to visit Las Vegas, or has plans to do so, we have put together a top 10 of must-do things.

And no matter how overwhelming all the impressions in this magnificent city are, these ten things will make your trip unforgettable.

10. Spend the night in a mega-resort on the Las Vegas Strip

The Las Vegas Strip (Las Vegas Boulevard) is the heart of Las Vegas – this is where it all happens. The Strip is a wide street with a length of almost 4.3 miles / 7 kilometres, with gigantic Hotel-Casino Resorts on both sides.

Las Vegas Boulevard is home to 29 of these Mega Resorts, which can have as many as 5,500 rooms and are equipped with all modern conveniences: swimming pools, entertainment, casinos and restaurants.

The most luxurious Mega Resorts are Wynn, Encore, Venetian, Aria and Cosmopolitan. Superb hotels with lavish, ultra-luxurious rooms and the very best service.

Other iconic hotels include Belaggio (with its world-famous fountains), MGM Grand (the largest hotel on the Strip), Paris (complete with an Eiffel tower at exactly 1/3 scale) and the Luxor, with its Pyramid shape.

9. Take a long walk on the Strip and take in the sights

One of the best things to do in Las Vegas is an afternoon of strolling around on the Strip and just enjoying everything around you. The hotels, the abundance, the madness and the people. What a great way to spend the day! You will discover new things over and over again.

Starting with: “Look, the fountains are starting” and “The Mirage Volcano is about to erupt” to “Did an Elvis with a bride really just walk by?” and “Come, let’s have a cocktail of 2 feet (over 1/2 a meter) in height in the shape of the Stratosphere Tower”.

8. View the Belaggio Fountains

For many years, the Belaggio Hotel was the most beautiful hotel in Las Vegas. Its gorgeous fountain show, which can be seen several times a day, is a unique and quintessential Vegas experience. The dancing fountains, accompanied by the beautiful sounds of Andrea’s Bocelli’s “Time to Say Goodbye” are a sight to behold.

Enjoy the small explosions that push the water tens of feet/metres into the sky and try not to cry with the beautiful final eruption of each performance.

A MUST in Las Vegas.

The Belaggio Fountains are entirely free to watch, a rarity in Las Vegas. I’ve been to Las Vegas over 30 times, but I need to see this fantastic spectacle at least once, every time I visit.

7. Eat at an All-You-Can-Eat- Buffet

Las Vegas is also known for the enormous diversity and high quality of its restaurants. And what goes more hand in hand with Las Vegas than the famous All-You-Can-Eat-Buffet?

Eat as much delicious culinary delicacies like Crab Legs, Sushi, Luxury Salads, BBQ, Steak, Sliders and desserts as far as the eye can see, as you can. The best buffets can be found in Caesar’s Palace (Bacchanal Buffet) and Cosmopolitan (Wicked Spoon Buffet).

6. Visit the High Roller

The High Roller is a Ferris wheel that is located on the LINQ promenade, an area in which you can shop, stroll around and eat. Step into one of the 28 huge pods that will take you up to almost 555 feet / 170 meters in height – enjoy stunning views over the Las Vegas Strip.

In addition to the regular rides, you can also book special experiences in the High Roller: from a Chocolate Tasting Experience and a Yoga Experience (really!) to an Open Bar – drink as many cocktails as you can during the 30-minute ride.

5. Gamble in a real Las Vegas casino

Of course, you can’t visit Las Vegas without taking a chance in one of the many casinos. Whether you like slot machines, Blackjack, Roulette or maybe even the dice game Craps, in Las Vegas you can gamble 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

The ideal place to try out your best roulette strategy!

In Las Vegas, you’ll find the most modern slot machines, with the widest variety of themes. Megabucks and Wheel of Fortune slots with a progressive jackpot remain popular, but Hollywood-themed slots such as The Walking Dead and Game of Thrones, are just as much a hit with slots players.

An additional advantage, the cocktails are free while you’ re gambling. Of course, don’t forget to tip the cocktail waitress $€1 to $€2 per drink – if you want her to come back with more free drinks.

4. Visit Downtown Las Vegas

Downtown Las Vegas is about a 10-minute drive from Las Vegas and has an entirely different atmosphere compared to the Strip. In Downtown Las Vegas all casinos are within walking distance – a big contrast with the where everything distances between hotels on the Strip. The table limits are lower, the atmosphere is more relaxed, and the rules are a lot more favourable for the player.

You can find the best bars, eateries and restaurants throughout Downtown, such as Pizza Rock (the best Pizza in Las Vegas), Eat (delicious breakfast). If you are feeling romantic, Hugo’s Cellar (inside the Four Queens) is an excellent choice. The ladies get an old-fashioned red rose, and salads are prepared “table side”, on the spot.

Most casinos are located on Fremont Street, where you’ ll find a unique music and light show on the ceiling several times a day. But there is even more, Fremont Street regularly features rock bands for free. And these are often superior cover bands or even (fairly well-known) artists like Vince Neil of Motley Crue/Poison.

If you are thinking of booking a luxurious room in a lavish hotel with a decent swimming pool like the ones on The Strip, then you are out of luck in Downtown Las Vegas.

However, a new urban project in the making, Circa Resort & Casino, aims to change that when they open their doors December of 2020.

3. Ride the tourist attractions on top of the Stratosphere Tower

On top of the Stratosphere Tower, just past the end of the north side of the Strip, at a height of 1250 feet / 350 metres, you will find several attractions for the real daredevils among us. The Big Shot will take you even higher up in the air, at a speed of 43 miles / 70 kilometres per hour. Open your eyes, if you dare, and enjoy breathtaking views of the Las Vegas valley.

Other attractions include the Sky Jump (a controlled freefall alongside the tower), Insanity and the X-Scream. The latter is a kind of roller coaster-like attraction that takes you almost 10 metres over the edge of the tower.

2. Go sky diving from a height of 16,000 feet / 5,000 meters with a view of the city

Just outside Las Vegas, it is possible to make a tandem Sky Dive with an instructor, from a height of 16,000 feet / 5,000 meters, with the Las Vegas Strip in the background. After you jump out of an aeroplane, a 60-second free fall follows before the parachute will be opened, and you will float back to earth as if in a dream.

From our own experience, we can tell you that Sky Diving in Las Vegas is both the scariest and the most fantastic thing we have ever done in our lives and probably will ever do. Fan-tas-tic!

1. Sail through the canals of Venice in a gondola

In the Venetian Hotel, you will not only find true to nature copies of the Rialto bridge and the famous San Marco square, but you can also take a Gondola tour through the canals of the hotel, with or without singing Gondolier.

This is all Las Vegas stands for: total madness in the middle of the desert. It’s not really possible, but it’s possible in Las Vegas.

And most important of all, make sure you have fun

Las Vegas is a city where everything is possible, and everything is allowed. Make sure you enjoy all that this beautiful city has to offer. And don’t forget, what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. That’s the best part: nobody needs to know what adventures you’ve had when you were half drunk. Be crazy!

Visit a show, a concert or the Craps table. Throw $€20 into the Big Bertha slot machine, where no one ever wins. Wear a crazy outfit. It’s all part of the Vegas experience.

Will it take too long before you’re in Las Vegas to gamble? Please note that you can of course also visit a trustworthy online casino to suppress those gambling cravings a bit.

These are the top 10 best Quickspin slots

Posted on 5 October 2015 by SuperBigWin

The Swedish slots game developer Quickspin has a clear mission: to create the world’s most awesome video slots.

And they are pretty well delivering on their promise!

Quickspin creates slots that look great and are packed with unique bonus features. No Quickspin slot is the same, and they’d rather release four excellent slots a year than 12 mediocre ones.

So their games are very popular, especially with players who love to be entertained while playing. Quickspin slots often have lower variance and great payout rates.

Who’s Quickspin?

Quickspin was started in Stockholm, Sweden, in 2012 by several former Netent employees. Because of all their experience, they decided that they could do better themselves.

The first slot, Supernova, was released in 2013, but with came their big breakthrough.

Treasure Island and Goldilocks contributed to further growth, and now Quickspin is one of the most important and respected game providers among online casinos. In 2016, Playtech bought Quickspin.

What are the 10 best Quickspin slots?

Quickspin has built up quite a large catalogue of dozens of different slots. They release a new title about every two months: quality over quantity.

To help you find the best Quickspin slot, we have created our personal top 10 of the best Quickspin slots.

Are you ready?

These are our 10 favourite Quickspin slots:

1. Pirates Charm

Although Pirates Charm is not one of Quickspin’s best-known slots, we love it to bits.

The 243 ways to win slot looks incredible, is perfectly designed and pays out very well.

We also love the fact that you can win at least as much (and sometimes more!) in the mini bonus feature as with the main bonus feature.

As far as we are concerned, Pirates Charm is the very best Quickspin slot.

[flytonic-button text=’Play Pirates Charm with a 100% bonus’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/slotsmillion’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

2. Sevens High

In second place of this top 10 list of best Quickspin slots comes Sevens High. Not everyone will agree, but we oke with that – after all, it’s our list. We immediately fell in love with this retro-style slot, where you can win a unique free spins bonus along with an increasing amount of wilds.

Sevens High is a kind of hybrid between a classic slot machine and a modern video slot, and it all works very smoothly. Spin 3 disco gramophone records and you win the free spins bonus.

You can now try to unlock as many wilds as possible, and in the meantime, you can get extra free spins as well.

[flytonic-button text=’Play Sevens High with a 100% bonus’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/slotsmillion’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

3. Big Bad Wolf

With the Big Bad Wolf slot, Quickspin has definitively earned their place in the online casino world. This slot is based on the famous fairy tale of the Wolf and the 3 Piglets. Everything is just right about this slot: the timeless story, the game mechanism with dropping symbols and extra wilds, and the free spins bonus, in which you can reach extra levels.

To top it all off, Big Bad Wolf also has an incredibly high payout rate of 97.29%. The slot Big Bad Wolf has already won several of the most prestigious awards, but the most important of all is, of course, is being on our list.

If you’ve never played Big Bad Wolf before, then it’ s time to change that.

[flytonic-button text=’Play Big Bad Wolf with a 100% bonus at Slots Million’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/slotsmillion’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

4. Goldilocks

Goldilocks is another video slot based on a fairy tale. This time it’s the famous story of the cheeky Goldilocks, who eats the porridge of the bear family.

This slot is almost perfect as well: graphically it is superb, the bonus rounds are very entertaining, and the payout rate over 97% is exceptionally high.

The only minor drawback is the very low variance, which is a well-known fact with the titles of Quickspin. But you don’t play Goldilocks to get rich; you play Goldilocks to get high-quality entertainment for your money.

[flytonic-button text=’Play Goldilocks now at Slots Million’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/slotsmillion’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

5. Crystal Queen

Crystal Queen is one of our personal favourites. This video slot has an ice queen theme that is lightly based on the movie blockbuster Frozen. It also has a unique game mechanism with dropping symbols that allow you to “defrost” frozen reels by making winning combinations.

Add extra multipliers and free spins with all paylines, and you have a top-notch video slot as far as we’re concerned.

We love Crystal Queen, and we still play this beautiful and unique game regularly.

[flytonic-button text=’Play Cristal Queen now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/slotsmillion’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

6. Sakura Fortune

If we had to describe the Sakura Fortune slot machine in two words, we would say: breathtakingly beautiful.

But Sakura Fortune, with a gorgeous Asian theme, is much more than just a dazzling design.

This 5 reel slot with 4 rows of symbols has 40 paylines, expanding wilds, respins and even sticky expanding wilds.

The variance is quite high: with Sakura Fortune, Quickspin targets gamblers who don’t mind taking a little more risk, in exchange for higher possible payouts.

[flytonic-button text=’Play Sakura Fortune now with a 100% bonus’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/slotsmillion’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

7. Hidden Valley

Hidden Valley also looks excellent and has many remarkable features. This slot takes you into the magical world of a hidden valley, where sky-high multipliers and extra wilds are waiting for you.

The slot design is a bit different compared to most online slots. The reels are set up 3 x 4 x 4 x 4 x 3, and there are 40 paylines. The different bet levels will determine the maximum multiplier, which can be up to 10 x.

The bonus game injects an extra shot of adrenaline in our system: you can unlock extra stacked wilds and the further you go, the more likely you are to win a lot of money.

Hidden Valley is a very nice slot that is very popular with high rollers.

[flytonic-button text=’Play Hidden Valley now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/slotsmillion’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

8. Sticky Bandits

Quickspin goes on a cowboy adventure with Sticky Bandits. And these are not cowboys who will watch a herd of wild horses and cook brown beans by the campfire at night.

These are crooked cowboys, who prefer to rob trains for a quick buck. Luckily, these bandits also help you by handing you some gold now and again.

When you win the free spins bonus and luck is on your side, you’ll earn sticky wilds by spinning the bandits on the reels.

If you collect enough sticky wilds, every spin could be a Super Big Win!

[flytonic-button text=’Play Sticky Bandits now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/slotsmillion’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

9. Mighty Arthur

Mighty Arthur is another classic Quickspin title. It has a beautiful design, down to the last detail, and the reels are spinning smoothly.

The bonus rounds are also cleverly put together in this medieval video slot that revolves around King Arthur and his famous sword Excalibur.

Both in the base game and the free spins bonus, you can earn a lot of extra wilds in two ways, allowing you to get very nice payouts.

Mighty Arthur is tough, handsome and unpredictable. And a damn nice slot machine.

[flytonic-button text=’Play Mighty Arthur with a 100% bonus’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/slotsmillion’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

10. The Wild Chase

Following Mighty Arthur’s tough guys, we have reached the final slot of this top 10 list: The Wild Chase.

The Wild Chase follows a few jet-set thieves, who aim for rich people living at the French Riviera. So think of fast cars, smart minds and costly jewels.

This slot works with the spin-as-long-as-you-win principle: as long as there are new winning combinations, you earn free respins.

Meanwhile, you save extra wild multipliers and bonus scatters.

The Wild Chase is stylish and exciting: it could just be the name of a Hollywood blockbuster.

[flytonic-button text=’Play The Wild Chase now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/slotsmillion’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

Try Quickspin slots for yourself

The Wild Chase closes this beautiful list of the 10 best Quickspin slots.

We hope they have inspired you and we would advise you to try them. You can play Quickspin slots at any casino that we recommend on this page, both for free and for real money.

These are the top 10 best Thunderkick slots

Posted on 28 September 2015 by SuperBigWin

Swedish casino games developer Thunderkick stands out from the crowd thanks to its unusual, quirky and unique online slots

While many slots providers focus mainly on reproducing what has worked well in the past, Thunderkick takes a slightly different approach.

Their main objective is to develop slots which are different in all respects from what has been done before.

In a world where slots providers continuously ‘borrow’ the most successful ideas and game mechanisms from each other, is Thunderkick a real breath of fresh air.

Incredibly entertaining slots, however, are the primary reason for their success.

What are the 10 best Thunderkick slots?

Since their start in 2012, Thunderkick has built a strong collection of more than 20 online slots. As you can tell, they’re not known for their high productivity as they release only about 3 to 4 titles per year.

Thunderkick always aims to introduce original slots and to add genuine value to the online casino world.

Their releases are always a bit quirky, unusual and above all, unique. Thunderkick slots often have a polarising effect: because of their distinct characteristics, either you’re crazy about them, or you don’t like them at all.

We’re part of the first category and love Thunderkick slots and everything they represent. So it wasn’t hard for us to pick 10 of our favourite Thunderkick slots. What was challenging, however, was to put them in the right order. After all, we’re excited about all of them.

Are you ready?

Those are our top 10 favourite Thunderkick slots:

1. Flame Busters

In our humble opinion, Flame Busters is absolutely the best Thunderkick slot ever made. It’s no surprise; Flame Busters won the SuperBigWin prize for the best online slot of 2017.

What makes Flame Busters so much fun? It’s a mix between a classic video game (you know, those Sega, Atari or Nintendo games) and a video slot.

With 243-ways-to-win and superb retro-style graphics, sounds and animations, Flame Busters is a feast for the eyes and ears.

The bonus feature is not only cool but one of a kind as well: free spins with mystery symbols, increasing chances to win and retriggers. Pretty awesome.

Flame Busters is not only the very best Thunderkick slot but also 1 of the best online slots ever created.

2. Fruit Warp

In second place of this top 10 of best Thunderkick, we have Fruit Warp. It is not a video slot in the classic sense of the word. There are no reels, no paylines, no free spins bonus, and you don’t know in advance how much you can win. Wild symbols are also missing.

Sounds a bit vague? It is. But man, Fruit Warp is such a great Thunderkick slot.

During each spin in the bonus game, you can try to get at least one symbol which initially activates the bonus. If you manage to do so, then the bonus game continues. If you don’t, then you’re out.

In the meantime, you collect cash prizes and extra multipliers. You can even earn lifesavers, provided you get far enough.

As strange as it is entertaining, Fruit Warp is an absolute must!

[flytonic-button text=’Check out Fruit Warp now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

3. Luchadora

Luchadora is a Video slot about Mexican wrestlers. In Mexico, people worship these masked tough guys like movie stars.

This slot is perfectly executed down to the last detail: colourful graphics, spicy bonus features and mystery features.

Collect extra wild symbols during the free spins bonus by unlocking different wrestlers. Do you manage to unlock all of the four wrestlers? Then the massive La Luchadora wrestler enters the ring and brings extra stacked wilds into play.

Thunderkick’s Luchadora was a huge success. For many other game providers, it was also an inspiration to create their Mexican wrestling slots, like Yggdrail’s Lucha Maniacs.

[flytonic-button text=’Check out Luchadora now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

4. Esqueleto Explosivo

Esqueleto Explosivo was our first introduction to Thunderkick, and we got hooked straight away.

It is an insane video slot which completely ignores all unwritten online casino slot rules.

For example, all symbols consist of skulls, which drop from the sky and onto the skeleton trunks. Furthermore, the skeletons form a full-blown Mariachi band, which produces beautiful vocals and trumpet sounds.

What to make of the golden Elvis skeleton? It is wild and can also blow up other symbols. Why not, right?

You can win multipliers of up to 32 x, and the big win animations are a true spectacle including an explosion of fireworks and sounds.

[flytonic-button text=’Check out Esqueleto Explosivo now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

5. The Falcon Huntress

The Falcon Huntress is 1 of the Thunderkick slots we play the most.

This high variance video slot is a kind of Book of Ra like slot including wilds, free spins and expanding symbols.

During the free spins, all winning combinations expand automatically, allowing you to win prizes of more than 10,000 x your bet.

Falcon Huntress is simple, fast and insane.

[flytonic-button text=’Check out Falcon Huntress now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

6. Arcader

Thunderkick’s Arcader takes you back to the arcade games of the 80s. Remember going to the snack bar with a tenner of pocket money and spending it on games like Galaga, Pacman and Space Invaders? Oh, we cherish these good old times.

Arcader may not be the same as Galaga, but it is damn close when it comes to giving you this nostalgic feeling.

Futuristic sounds, a robot voice, fast gameplay: it’s like you’re back in those beautiful 80s — the time of souped-up mopeds, the Random Runner slot and flashy aerobics outfits.

Arcader has two great bonus features: a pick-and-click bonus and a thrilling free spins bonus, which can earn you up to 9 sticky wilds.

[flytonic-button text=’Check out Arcader now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

7. Pink Elephants

We can best describe Pink Elephants as Thunderkick’s version of Raging Rhino.

Be prepared for high variance, almost unlimited potential and of course some crazy Thunderkick surprises.

During the free spins bonus, it is essential to collect as many “orbs” as possible. These will award you extra free spins and, more importantly, extra pink elephants.

These Pink Elephants are stacked and can result in huge payouts. For instance, in combination with the wild symbols. Prizes of 1,000’s of x the total bet are quite usual.

[flytonic-button text=’Check out Pink Elephants now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

8. Birds on a Wire

Strangely enough, when we played Birds on a Wire for the first time, we didn’t think much of it.

Graphically it seemed somewhat unfinished, with peculiar square birds and mat colours. We also had to get used to the game mechanism, including flying symbols and winning combos which make way for new symbols.

On top of that, the bonus rounds were a long time coming. But in the end, the penny dropped. With free spins, multipliers of up to 20 x and the possibility to form winning combos over and over again, you can make bizarre amounts of money with Birds on a Wire.

We’re talking high variance with a capital H.

Besides, if you can grab a payout of 500 x your bet or higher, then suddenly this slot turns out to be great fun. What’s also cool: the Winfinity Spin guarantees you can finish the bonus round with a winning spin.

[flytonic-button text=’Check out Birds on a Wire now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

9. 1429 Uncharted Seas

Released in 2014, 1429 Uncharted Seas is one of Thunderkick’s first titles. Especially when it comes to graphics, 1429 Uncharted Seas is a revelation: the stunning style of maps from centuries ago catches the eye.

Furthermore, there is an exciting free spins bonus with expanding wilds (again with beautiful animations of ancient monsters), and the payout rate is absurdly high: 98.6%. Unprecedented!

1429 Uncharted Seas is beautiful, eye-catching and cool.

[flytonic-button text=’Check out 1429 Uncharted Seas now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

10. Frog Grog

We conclude this top 10 of best Thunderkick slots with Frog Grog. Now, this choice will probably cause some frowns of disapproval.

Frog Grog is not Thunderkick’s most famous slot. Besides, the opinions on Frog Grog are not entirely positive. Boring, no real bonus game, difficult to grasp and tedious, are just some of other players’ remarks.

Still, we are Frog Grog fans. It has a mysterious atmosphere, and you can pocket some serious cash thanks to disappearing symbols, extra wilds and multipliers up to 7 x.

Graphically, Frog Grog is a success as well, and you’ll recognise Thunderkick’s unique stubbornness.

Frog Grog is a strange video slot, that’s for sure. But a delightful one, at that.

[flytonic-button text=’Check out Frog Grog now’ linkurl=’http://superbigwin.com/play/casumo’ size=’med’ icon=’check’ bg_color=’green’ text_color=’lgt’ ]

Try Thunderkick slots yourself

With Frog Grog, we wrap up this selection of 10 incredibly awesome Thunderkick slots.

If the list includes titles you haven’t played yet, then it’s high time for you to discover them.

You can play Thunderkick slots to your heart’s content at any of our recommended online casinos. Either for free or with real money. For players who make their first deposit, there are nice welcome bonuses available which can win you hundreds of dollars.

10 smart casino gaming tips that will make you a better gambler

Posted on 27 May 2015 by SuperBigWin

A man is walking along the Las Vegas strip, after a long day of gambling. He has arranged to meet his wife in front of the MGM Grand casino. He has a face like thunder. When he spots his wife, the following conversation develops:

Husband: “Hi.”Wife: “Hi, honey. And…? Tell me, how did you do?”
Husband: “I lost $ 2,800. You?”
Wife: “I lost $ 300.”
Husband (furious): “How could you lose that much money!? How could you be so stupid!?”
Wife (outraged): “Why are you mad at me?? You lost almost 10 x as much money as I have!”
Husband: “Yes, but you don’t know how to gamble!!”

10 Smart casino gaming tips: Use them to your advantage.

Emotions can do strange things to you when you are gambling. We have listed ten smart casino gaming tips. So, you can become a better gambler, unlike the man in the well known Las Vegas story above.

Gaming Tip 1. Use the welcome bonus to its maximum potential.

Fact: every reliable online casino gives away a welcome bonus when registering a new account.

Fact: Not all welcome bonuses are created equally attractive.

Fact: Not every player uses the welcome bonuses to the maximum of their possibilities.

And that is a crying shame. Because you only get one chance to use your welcome bonus. By not maximising it, you leave money on the table.

For example, Turbo Casino has a very nice welcome bonus that hands you 100% of your first deposit up to $€ 151. Pay attention: your 1^st deposit. So, the optimum amount to put down is $€ 151, to trigger the maximum bonus amount of $€ 151 and set you up with a starting balance of $€ 302 (151 deposit + 151 bonus).

So, our first tip is: shop around for the best welcome bonuses and use them to the maximum of their possibilities. We wrote a handy post for you, on how welcome bonuses work so you can have the most amount of fun for the least amount of money.

Gaming tip 2. Only play casino games with real money if they are from a reliable game provider.

It is essential to only play casino games from reliable companies. Because with an online casino, you always play on external servers owned by the game provider, and for that reason, these have to be 100% trustworthy. Reliable slot providers include Netent, Play’n GO, Microgaming, Thunderkick, Quickspin and Big Time Gaming.

The casino games of these gaming providers are regularly tested for fairness, independence and payout rates. That way, you can be sure you have a fair chance to beat the casino.

Gaming tip 3. Want to withdraw funds several times a day? No problem!

Sometimes there are those days when everything is going your way. When you don’t want to get paid out just once, but maybe 2, 3 or even 4 times. Then it is certainly helpful that you are playing at an online casino that actually allows this, without making you feel like you are breaking the rules.

There are numerous casinos where you cannot withdraw more than once per day free of charge. Some casinos require a payment (!), and some don’t allow it at all. If you figure this out, quickly move to another provider who will treat you respectfully.

A casino like Casumo excels in fast payouts, even if you want to do more than one per day.

Gaming tip 4. Check your payout percentages (RTP)

With many slots, you can check the payout percentage (Return to Player, or RTP) before you start playing. The payout percentage is that part of the bet which (calculated over a long period) is paid back to the player on average. The higher this percentage is, the better it is for the player.

Our 4th and also at the same time one of our best casino gaming tips is, therefore: before you try a game, always quickly check the game rules to see if you can find the percentage.

With the guideline below you can immediately see if the number you found is on the right side of the spectrum.

What does the payout percentage mean (for online slots)?

below 95%: low
from 95% to 96%: average
from 96% to 97%: good
from 97% to 98% very good
above 98%: excellent

Here you’ll find a top 10 of highest paying slots.

Gaming tip 5. Avoid slots with progressive jackpots

Let’s be clear: we’re not saying that slots with progressive jackpots are wrong. Absolutely not. And if you want to go for that life-changing, multi-million jackpot, go for it. There have been many overnight slots millionaires that have preceded you.

But what a lot of people overlook is that those big mega jackpots have to come from somewhere. And that means fewer payouts in the regular game. Just like that, it can matter a few percentage points. That may not seem like much, but in reality, it merely means that you lose your money (much) faster.

If you hit that big jackpot, you won’t care about that at all. But for most of us, playing a progressive slot means that your chances of having a winning session are small in any case, much lower than if you were playing on a non-progressive slot.

Gaming tip 6. Playing Blackjack or video poker? Practice the right strategy

The right game strategy can make the difference between winning and losing in Black Jack and Video Poker in particular. These are two casino games where the player has a direct influence on the outcome of the game. With Black Jack, you can buy, pass, split and double. In video poker, you can hold cards and get dealt with other cards.

By playing the right Blackjack strategy, you substantially increase your chances of winning. So, it’s worth practising these two games for free, until you have sufficient insight and technique to play for real money.

Make use of so-called “cheat sheets”. These will show you precisely what the ideal strategy is for you in each game situation.

Gaming tip 7. Stop in time and not only when losing!

Our 7th game tip sounds simple but is often overlooked by many players. Set limits. Make a deal with yourself before you start playing: what is the maximum you can lose? But also: at what amount of profit do you call it quits? If you can discipline yourself to stick to both agreements, then you can be sure of two things:

You never lose more than you want to lose.
You will stop in time before things start going South.

Be realistic in expectations and act accordingly. Don’t fall into the Gamblers Fallacy trap. This Gambler’s Fallacy makes you believe that your odds of winning increase the more you lose. How often do you think: there has been seven roulette spins in a red pocket, now black must drop? Or: I’ve pumped so much money into this slot, it has got to start paying out now.

Both thoughts are wrong.

Every spin on the slot or round of roulette is random and independent. Results from the past have zero impact on future outcomes!

As a result, “hot” and “cold” sessions are nothing more than a myth, even if you might feel like they do exist.

Gaming tip 8. Choose the right types of games

Every player has his favourite casino games. For some, it’s Blackjack, for others it’s Roulette, and for others still, it is slots. That’s cool. But check out the variant you are about to play.

If you choose 6:5 Blackjack (a Blackjack pays $€ 6 for every $€ 5 wagered) instead of the usual 3:2 variant (where Blackjack pays $€ 7.50 for the same bet)?

The percentage that the casino earns from you at 6:5 Blackjack is almost double, compared to 3:2 Blackjack!

Calculation example

On average, 1 in 21 hands is a Blackjack. If you play around 60 hands in an hour, you will have about three blackjacks on average.

At 3:2 Blackjack and $€ 5 bets per hand these Blackjack payouts will get you 3/2 x 3 x 5 = $€22,50.

At 6:5 Blackjack with the same bet you win 6/5 x 3 x 5 = $€ 18.

A difference of $€ 4.50 per hour.

Long story short: Always play 3:2 Blackjack.

American Roulette (with two zeros) is also much more to the disadvantage of the player than European Roulette (with one single zero). Here as well, your odds of winning are significantly lower. Check out our Roulette Strategy post for the optimal strategy for you, and this can save you a lot of money, guaranteed!

Gaming tip 9. Big or small player? Choose a casino with a good (VIP) player program

Let’s be honest. Sometimes you win at online casinos. And sometimes you lose. Over a more extended time, you usually lose more than you win. The bigger players among us would do well to play at a casino with a VIP Program. Then you know for sure that you will be eligible for nice extras, regardless if you win or lose. That way, even if you lose, you come out on top.

Are you a somewhat smaller player? Even then, there are plenty of casinos that regularly give something back. Slots Million is an excellent example of this with weekly free spins for regular players, extra deposit bonuses and many more promotions.

We would also like to mention Playamo Casino. At this casino, you accrue coins by playing, and those can be exchanged for great prizes.

Number 9 of our top 10 best casino gaming tips: choose a casino with a customer appreciation program.

Gaming tip 10. Choose a safe and reliable online casino

Before you start betting real money at an online casino, make sure that the casino is safe and reliable. There are several things you want to know:

that both your money and your private data are 100% secure;
that the games offered are fair and random;
that the casino owns a valid license issued by a trustworthy authority;
that the terms are transparent, honest and unambiguous;
that you’ll be able to get your winnings paid into your account quickly and hassle-free;
that you’ll get excellent customer support if you have any problems or questions.

Therefore, only choose the casinos that we recommend to you. We have thoroughly tested all the casinos on SuperBigWin ourselves, for real money and with real accounts. We have also extensively tested the games on offer, the speed of the payment into your account and the helpdesk. Make sure you are well informed so that you can gamble at a reliable online casino at all times.

These are 5 of the most reputable online casinos, all of which we have tested ourselves with real money. 19EN16a22

What are the 10 best WMS slots?

Posted on 24 April 2015 by SuperBigWin

WMS is an American casino games producer that is especially popular in land-based casinos.

If you’ve ever visited a brick and mortar casino near you, perhaps even a casino in Las Vegas, and played a video slot there, chances are it was a WMS slot.

WMS slots were simply head and shoulders above the rest for years. Their slots had well thought-out and equally well-executed themes, innovative bonus features and always a high entertainment factor.

In one way or another, WMS slots are almost always unique and extremely entertaining. The company is even responsible for the very first video slot with a bonus feature: the classic Reel Em In, which was released in 1996.

In recent years, WMS has lagged somewhat and is finding it more challenging to fulfil the role of the absolute trendsetter.

WMS is part of the mighty Scientific Games and releases online versions of their best-known titles under the Williams Interactive name.

These are the 10 best WMS slots

Since the release of the slot mentioned above, Reel Em In, WMS has released hundreds of video slots.

Many of these titles can be found at online casinos, although unfortunately, they haven’t transferred all of their best slots to their online platform. Case in point, we are still waiting for an online version of our favourite slot of all time: The Princess Bride.

Fortunately, many classics of WMS can be played online. Whose heart doesn’t start to beat faster with epic WMS titles like Raging Rhino, Bierhaus and Kronos?

We still regularly play the slots of WMS at a reputable online casino.

Are you ready?

These are our ten favourite WMS slots:

1. The Princess Bride

If we could make one wish come true (except for a world without war and hunger), we would opt for an online version of The Princess Bride.

This video slot, which is based on the fantastic, funny, smart, sweet and brilliant film of the same name (yes, we are fans), is unfortunately almost nowhere to be found anymore.

It has been removed from every landbased casino and can no longer be found in Las Vegas either. Believe us; we’ve searched every nook and cranny of every Las Vegas casino.

So, we have to make do with the memories. The mystery bonuses with the giant, the infamous poison cup swap bonus, the Swamp bonus with the sticky wilds and other bonus boosters.

This slot was not only a perfect example of how to design a brilliant video slot; it was also a celebration of the film.

So, WMS, we beg you: PLEASE RELEASE ONLINE VERSION OF THE PRINCESS BRIDE SLOT!

Here is a nice clip with a good cross-section of the bonus features of The Princes Bride slot machine.

2. Bier Haus

Bier Haus is a hi-la-ri-ous and iconic slot from WMS, which revolves around the famous German Oktoberfest.

That means in this case: oompah music, beautiful blond and well-shaped waitresses, yodelling Gunthers and above all a lot of beer.

The free spin bonus can generate a lot of money through sticky wilds, extra wilds (the beer mugs) and frequent retriggers. Heidi! Heidi! Wunderbar!

Bier Haus was so successful that many (equally fun) sequels were released by WMS, including Bier Haus 200 and Heidi’s Bier Haus. Also, there are many clones of this slot released by other, less talented game developers.

In short: one of the nicest slots van WMS.

Check out the Bier Haus slot at Casumo.

3. Raging Rhino

Raging Rhino is what you call a real classic. This video slot has it all: super cool graphics, an equally cool free spin bonus and a high variance.

With win all ways, wild multipliers in the bonus and unlimited retriggers, Raging Rhino is a slot with which you can win an awful lot of money.

This WMS slot turned out to be so popular that in the interim dozens of clones have been produced. It shows once again what a leading role WMS has always had in the casino industry.

Check out the Raging Rhino slot at Casumo.

4. Kronos

Kronos is probably the most famous WMS slot and certainly one of the best they have ever made.

The tough Kronos looks at you almost contemptuously and makes it clear: Don’t mess with me kid.

Luckily, this high variance top-of-the-line slot regularly gives players huge payouts with the free spin bonus.

Here, with the stacked wilds and stacked Kronos symbols, you can drag in the big prizes from both sides.

Kronos is a very volatile video slot: it can make you or break you, and of course, you have to be able to handle that.

Check out the Kronos slot at Casumo.

5. Wizard of Oz Ruby Slippers

If you had to write a manual on how to make the perfect video slot, Wizard of Oz Ruby Slippers might be the subject of the first chapter.

Everything about the Wizard of Oz Ruby Slippers is spot on: the famous movie theme, the super design, the great bonuses and of course the heel-clicking red shoes.

Win free spins with bonus boosters, an exciting and potentially very lucrative pick and click bonus or grab a mystery prize. Of course, the well-known flying air bubbles, which contain expanding wilds, are present as well.

We have played on this slot for many hours, both online and at land-based casinos. A delightful dreamy slot, which takes you to a strange and wonderful world. The world of OZ.

Check out the Wizard of Oz Ruby Slippers slot at Slots Million.

6. Montezuma

Montezuma is also a popular slot by WMS that has already been copied by many other slot providers but has by no means been equalled.

The great strength of this beautifully designed “Aztec” slot is the unique free spin bonus, where you can earn extra multipliers up to 10 x, and unlimited retriggers with the multiplier that is active at that moment.

That is how it is possible to suddenly get 20 to 40 free spins with a 10 x multiplier.

And then your balance can ratchet up extremely fast all of a sudden.

Montezuma is a small masterpiece and fortunately gets all the praise it so deserves from players: this is one of the most played WMS slots.

Check out the Montezuma slot at Casumo.

7. Cool Jewels

Cool Jewels might not be as well known as the other WMS slots on this top 10 list, but certainly one of the most fun ones.

It is a video slot that was produced with the casual game player in mind. It resembles slots like Bejeweled a lot.

You play the game on a matrix of 6 x 6 symbols, where you have to make clusters of 3 or more of the same symbols. Winning symbols disappear and make way for new ones so that you can create multiple winning combos in a row.

The more winning combinations in a row, the more the symbols are worth. There are also special symbols that can change into wilds, multipliers, bombs and even sticky wilds.

It is also possible to win free spins, where you play with even more special symbols in the game, which will bring you a lot of extra chances.

Check out the Cool Jewels slot at Casumo.

8. Heidi’s Bier Haus

The great success of the original Bier Haus had to lead to several sequels. WMS soon released derivative Bier Haus slots such as Heidi 200, Colossal Bier Haus and Heidi’s Bier Haus.

The latter, Heidi’s Bier Haus, is also in this top 10 of best WMS slots. We think Heidi 200 is just as good, but three Bier Haus slots in a top 10 were just a bit too much for us.

All known ingredients will be present in this slot: Heather, the smiling Gunther, wonderfully catchy singing and lots of bonus features.

This time Heidi is prominently behind the tap and lets the beer flow generously regularly, transforming entire reels into wilds.

The Heidi slots are somewhat similar to what we have with the music (and the ladies!) of ABBA: we love it, and we’re not afraid to show it to the world anymore.

Cheers!

Check out the Heidi’s Bier Haus slot at Casumo.

9. Amazon Queen

Amazon Queen resembles the Kronos slot in many ways: a high variance and free spins with stacked wilds and stacked premium symbols.

It is, however, a slot that can stand on its own. Amazon Queen might have been released even earlier than Kronos.

Anyway: the beautiful jungle theme has been worked out in detail, and the animation of the gorilla pounding on his chest is just superb craftsmanship of the design team of WMS. Maybe it’s weird, but we can enjoy that kind of thing.

One of the things that is still on our slots bucket list is to spin a full screen of gorillas in Amazon Queen. And until that wish is fulfilled, we will continue to play Amazon Queen with great pleasure.

Check out the Amazon Queen slot at Casumo.

10. Fire Queen

On the last spot of this beautiful list, we have chosen Fire Queen.

This is perhaps the least known of all the slots on this top 10 list, and that is precisely why we have put it on.

Fire Queen is an amazingly cool slot with many innovative features, which deserves to be discovered.

You can activate the free spins bonus in 3 different ways; there are transferring wilds and the wilds in the bonus round expand all over the screen.

And man, what a beautiful sight WMS has made of Fire Queen.

Check out the Fire Queen slot at Casumo.

Try WMS slots yourself

With Fire Queen, we close this top 10 list with ten great WMS slots.

If there are titles on this list that you don’t know yet, it’s high time to discover them.

You can try out the WMS slots for free at any online casino that we recommend on this page. Have fun now!

5 perfect online slots for newbie players

Posted on 25 March 2015 by SuperBigWin

What are the best online slots for novice players?

If you’re a new online casino player and want to play an online slot, the choice can be overwhelming. Most online casinos offer between 500 and 700 different online slots games with the most notable names. There is even an online casino where you can find more than 2,000 different video slots called Slots Million.

And then there are all those various providers: Netent, Microgaming, Quickspin, Play’n GO, Thunderkick, Pragmatic Play. Plenty enough to lose your mind, especially if you’ve never played slots online before.

Of course, you don’t want to lose all your money because you happen to have chosen a slot with the “wrong“(for a novice player), high-risk profile, also known as high variance slots. But you do want to play an entertaining video slot, where your money lasts for a long time, and where you have a lot of fun too.

Superbigwin helps you on your way!

To get you on your way in the jungle of online slots, we’ve put together a top 5 of online slots that are ideal for new players:

they are video slots that are easy to understand
you can already play with low stakes/bets
they have a low variance, so a more moderate risk
they are delightful slots
they have a decent payout rate, so you win some

Five ideal online slots for novice players

We searched for a long time, tested and weighed up the pros and cons for many hours. And after long deliberation, we made up our mind: these are the five ideal slots games to play if you’re a beginner, online casino player. You can play these slots for free or with real money. We recommend you try them out for free first, so you’ll get a good feel for how the game works, the layout and functions of the buttons, and what the bonus games look like.

If you find yourself ready to play with real money, you can create an account at the online casino and deposit money. You’ll also receive a welcome bonus on your first deposit, which usually doubles your money and sometimes you’ll also receive free spins on a fun video slot.

1. Starburst (Netent)

Play at: Casumo

Betting from: $€ 0.10

Starburst is perhaps the all-time most successful video slot in the world and is the ideal entry-level video slot. It has 10 paylines, and you earn prizes making winning combinations from the left to right as well as the right to left.

Also note the Starburst stars: these expand and go wild: they act as a joker for all the other symbols. Additionally, you can earn free respins with this simple but incredibly enjoyable slot.

2. Blood Suckers (Netent)

Play at: Casumo

Betting from: $€ 0.20

Blood Suckers is another Netent hit and is still the favourite online slot machine of many slot enthusiasts. This slot is completely dedicated to vampires and has the great advantage of paying out extremely well: almost 98% of the deposit is returned to the player. In other words, this slot has a theoretical payout rate or Return To Player (RTP) of almost 98%.

But that’s not all: you can also win two exciting bonus rounds. The free spins bonus awards you free spins and all winnings are multiplied x 3. In the Bonus Game, you open coffins for extra profits. But beware of the empty coffin: it means game over for the bonus game!

3. Big Bad Wolf (Quickspin)

Play at: SlotsMillion

Betting from: $€ 0.25

Who doesn’t know the fairy tale of The Three Piglets and the Big Bad Wolf? Big Bad Wolf is a wonderful Quickspin video slot that is just extremely entertaining to play.

The piglets provide the prizes, and the big bad wolf activates the bonus game. How far will you get with the free spins, and how much money will you make? Big Bad Wolf looks stunning, and although the game mechanism is a bit more ingenious than most video slots, you’ll soon get the hang of it. Highly recommended!

4. Goldilocks (Quickspin)

Play at: SlotsMillion

Betting from: $€ 0.25

Goldilocks is another Quickspin online slot game based on a well-known fairy tale. This time it is an adaptation of Goldilocks and the three bears. And Goldilocks is a super cool video slot with low variance and a high payout percentage. The bonus round consists of an exciting free spins bonus, where you have to collect Goldilocks symbols to earn extra wilds and extra free spins.

This slot has been one of our favourite slots games for years, and we recommend everyone to give Goldilocks try.

5. 7 Monkeys (Pragmatic Play)

A few more tips for beginning online casino players

The online casino world can be quite overwhelming. You have so much choice between online casinos, and how do you know which casino to trust? They all look beautiful, and they all have a lot of casino games. The good news is, most online casinos are trustworthy.

The bad news is, there are still online casinos that are not reliable. They don’t pay out promptly, or sometimes they don’t pay out at all. And there are online casinos that work with hacked and copied software. It looks like the game belongs to a respected game provider, but in reality, you are being cheated, and they pay out far less than the official version.

To help you choose a safe and reliable online casino, we have created a top 10 online casinos. In this top 10 are only casinos that we have tested ourselves with real money and have had good experiences with.

Also, don’t forget online casinos give away a casino welcome bonus to new players. In this way, a casino doubles your first deposit, and there are even gambling sites that triple your first deposit.
