Understanding the Feature Guarantee in video slots As featured on Sloto Magazine

A passionate slot player understands that most winnings will emerge from the bonus features in video slots. Some slots have features that trigger frequently, while others are harder to get to. There can be nothing more disappointing than making hundreds of spins and emptying your balance without reaching the desired bonus feature.

Fortunately for us slots aficionado, Sloto’Cash has over 10 slots with a unique side feature that makes sure you get to the bonus feature within a limited number of spins. It is called Feature Guarantee and here’s how it works:

Above the reels you will see the Feature Guarantee meter. It will display the number of spins that can go without a bonus feature. If you don’t get the bonus feature before the number of spins displayed (usually between 100 and 150), then you are guaranteed to get one when the meter turns fully green.

But that’s not all. The Feature Guarantee comes with an Instant Trigger option. The meter above the reels will increase with each spin that doesn’t trigger the feature. It will display a percentage that will slowly climb up to 100%. At any point you can press the PLAY button to engage with the Instant Trigger. You will see a wheel shuffle red and green slots on its surface. Then an indicator will spin on the wheel and randomly stop on one of the slots. If it lands on a green slot, you are awarded the bonus feature!

Important to notice is that the Feature Guarantee is tied to the denomination you are playing. If you switch to a different denomination, the meter value from the original denomination will not be carried over. We recommend that you don’t use the Instant Trigger if the meter stands at 49% or less, unless you are running low on credits or reaching the end of your current session.

If you can't keep your hands off a slot machine, you need to learn how to treat it with respect. A slot machine is a whimsical lover; it can take you to the heights of ecstasy as quickly as to the pits of frustration.

Every slot player must learn basic rules and tips to make the most of every minute spent in the company of slot machines. Here are our suggestions for you when playing slot machines at Sloto'Cash or any other casino.

Max Bet Rule

It has been going as a rule of thumb that you must always play slots in Max Bet to get the best pay-back rates. This may be true in some land-based casinos, but Sloto'Cash does not set independent pay-out rates per denomination. If a slot machine is set to pay at 95%, it will do so in every denomination allowed.

However, do note that some slots, especially 3-reel slots, have higher pay-table prizes when you play Max Bet. In this scenario, playing Max Bet is essential to get best returns.

Play all Pay-lines

Slots allow you to select how many pay-lines you want to bet on. We recommend that you always play all pay-lines on any slot that has more than 3-paylines. This makes it easier to land winning combinations, especially in aligning special icons that will trigger the bonus features.

Pick your pay-out style

Are you someone that enjoys getting frequent wins or are you hunting for large prizes after long strenuous sessions? Identify what type of player you are and locate the slots that are ideal for you. Our games' preview allows you to read whether the game has low, medium or high volatility. The lower volatility means that the game prefers to give small to medium prizes frequently. High volatility means the game will often go through dry patches only then to release higher jackpots.

When to stop playing

It is important to set a budget for every visit to the casino. Having a fixed amount to play makes it easier for you to manage your money. If you want to play one evening with $30, you can set certain rules to your play. For example, to switch machine if you lose $10 of your original balance. This way you get to explore more games than if you keep playing carelessly without paying attention to you balance.

Every spin independent

Forget everything you have ever heard about how or when a slot machine will pay. Every spin is random and independent from the last. If a slot is tight after a few hundred spins, it doesn't mean it will loosen up. There is not bullet-proof strategy that can help you beat a slot machine; you simply need pure luck: playing the right machine at the right time.

Exploit your comps

Be sure to be part of the Loyalty Program at Sloto'Cash and play the slots with highest comp point compensation. Ask the casino host for tips on which bonuses or slots have the highest comp rewarding scheme.

Entertainment value

Let's not forget that playing slots is all about the entertainment. Modern slots have innovative bonus features that create suspense as you wait for the coming payout. Identify which bonus features you enjoy most in a slot machine. Is it Free Spins, Interactive Bonus Rounds, expanding Wilds, Scatter Icons, Multipliers or Collapsible Wilds? Once you have your list, go and find the slot games that offer those precise features and enjoy every minute

Who would play slots if they didn't have bonus features? The bonus feature is the ultimate reward when playing slot machines and most players are aware that here is where they can make a big profit. Bonus features are often found on all slots machine above the 3-reel category.

Let's have a look of all the different kinds of bonus features a slot machine can offer. Once you understand all the varieties of bonus features, then you can target your play hours to those machines that have the most profitable and fun bonus rounds.

What is a bonus feature?

The bonus feature comes as an extra chance to win coin prizes without further bets needed from the player. It can come in many forms, usually as an independent arcade-like game within the slot machine's theme.

Before you start playing any slot machine it is recommended that you give the pay-table a good read to understand the variety of bonus features offered by the slot machine.

Free Games Feature

Most video and 3D slots offer Free Games features that can be triggered by landing a set of special symbols in a single spin. During the Free Games you can sit back and watch the spins reels at no cost to you. The normal range of Free Games ranges from 5 to 20 Free Games, but some slots can offer up to 100 Free Games.

During some Free Games the pay-table payouts are multiplied by as high as 10x! Also, you can have the expanding Wild Symbol fixed on one or several reels for the duration of the Free Games - allowing astronomical wins to occur!

The Bonus Round

When a bonus round is reached, the reels are often replaced by a game-within-game window. The player may only have to watch the unfolding of the bonus round where a random prize is granted. But often, the player must interact with the game to achieve a win, either by clicking on items to uncover prizes or by engaging in a puzzle-solving or action-driven game not unlike those in arcade machines. The interactive bonus rounds are the most fun since the decisions of the player will be crucial to the outcome of the bonus round.

Feature Guarantee

Sloto Cash has some slots that offer a guarantee that a Bonus Feature will be triggered within a certain number of spins, often 150 spins. The Feature Guarantee meter is on top of the slot. Each spin that goes by without triggering the feature will reduce the figure in the meter. If no feature is randomly triggered before the meter reaching zero, then you are guaranteed a Free Games Feature when the meter reaches the end.

You can also play the Instant Trigger feature. After each spin without a feature, the Instant Trigger chance increases. It starts at 0.04% chance of triggering a bonus feature and steadily increases up to 99%. By playing this game you will make a wheel with red and green bands spin. The higher the percentage means that more green bands are included in the wheel. If the tracker falls on a green band, the Bonus Feature is triggered.

Collapsible reels

A rare number of slots have reels that collapse after a spin are done. Certain icons will explode or vanish in order to make room for the upper symbols to fall in their place. This allows for several winning combinations to appear in a single spin.

Now that you know all the possibilities we invite you to pick a promo from our Weekly Bonus Chart and let the games begin!
