Arcade Slot Review

How to play

When it comes to the Arcade slot gameplay, it can't get simpler than one pay line. The single pay line is just a horizontal line going from left to right, and you need two or three symbols on this single line to constitute a win. The game also has three reels and three rows.

Since your payouts are based on your bet, you need to adjust the total stake before playing. Using the Plus and Minus buttons below the reels, you can choose your bet from €0.10 to €100. Since there is only one pay line, you can expect no bet per line. All wins are directly multiplied by the total bet.

The other controls you can use to play this game include Spin, which spins the reels once. With the Autoplay button, you can gamble automatically up to 1000 times. The game also has a Fast Speed mode for quicker gameplay.

Symbols and payouts

As mentioned earlier, the Arcade slot features mostly fruit symbols that help it stay true to its classic theme. The payouts are based on your bet.

The lowest reward you can get is when you land three Cherry symbols on the single pay line. It will give you a payout of 2x the total bet. You also get the same payout for landing 2 Berries on the pay line. 

Then, three Berry symbols offer 4x the total bet, while three Lemon symbols give 8x the total bet for landing three of a kind on the pay line. The Plum provides the same payout as the Lemon.

Moving up to higher rewards, the Pineapple and Orange will give you identical payout of 60x the bet when you hit three on the centerline.

Then, the Bell and Apple give you 120x the bet, also for three of a kind. This is the same for the Watermelon and Grapes.

The payouts get even more exciting with the Pear offering a payout of 200x the bet, while VEGAS will give you 300x the bet.

At the top of the list is the Pot of Gold, offering a reward of 400x the bet for three on a line.

The best thing about classic slots is that they compensate with impressive payouts in the base game, since they don't include standard and popular bonuses.

Best Arcade Bonus Features

Don't expect this slot to be overloaded with Arcade bonus features, although this doesn't mean you can't enjoy a great experience with what it offers. There are no Wilds, Scatters or Arcade Free Spins.

But the base game becomes more interesting with the Hold and Spin feature called Reels Blocking. After any spin, you have the chance to hold one reel in place while the others spin. The slot usually holds one randomly for you, although you can click on STOP for that reel so that it won't be held in place. You can also hold the one you want to keep in place by clicking on STOP. When the color of the reel turns from white to gold, it is being held in place.

The highlight of this game is the Mini Bonus. It’s triggered by landing a Star symbol on the reel, which in turn switches on a corresponding field in the Mini Bonus matrix table.  Once the Star Matrix is full you are awarded the corresponding payout in the next spin. 

RTP & volatility

The Arcade RTP is 96.62%, and the volatility is high. You won't land wins often because of the center pay line, but you'll be impressed when you do. With this RTP level, you can expect decent returns on your bet as you play over time.
