Great 88

How to play

Located below the colourful reels of this slot are a set of buttons. BetSoft Gaming haven’t exactly gone out of their way to develop a unique look and feel for those buttons. They are just kind of stuck in there. Those same buttons can see you choose coin values, betting levels, place maximum bets, double up, or check out the paytable.

Coin denominations range from a low of $0.02 up to $0.10 as is customary for a BetSoft slot, and you can wager up to 5 per payline. None of the 30 lines in this slot can be adjusted. In which case, you’re going to be wagering anything from a floor of $0.60 per spin, up to a ceiling of 15.00 per spin. That’s not too bad a wagering range, all things considered.

Features

Lucky Boxes: All of the special features in this video slot are doled out via Lucky Boxes. When 3 or more Lucky Boxes appear anywhere on the reels, players will pocket great rewards, which can include the following:

Top symbols: The best paying icons in this slot are hidden inside the Lucky Boxes. Revealing the dragon and lion symbols will unlock larger wins as you play in this slot.

Instant wins: Lucky Boxes may also contain between 1 and 3 bronze coins, and these symbols can offer you instant wins, which range from 3x up to 15x your total stake.

Firecracker wilds: Firecracker wild symbols may also be pulled out of Lucky Boxes. These symbols can then go off, and spread to 1 or 2 other symbols, turning those into wild icons, too.

Free spins bonus: If your chosen Lucky Boxes contain jade coins, then you will land a free spins bonus. Landing 1, 3 or 5 jade coins will determine how many free spins you win. It is possible to win between 3 and 25 free spins in total.

Bonus wheel: Lastly, a Lucky Box may contain golden dumplings. When they do, you will be taken to a bonus wheel. A quick spin on that could see you win 8 free spins, or 5x, 10x, or 20x your total stake. You could also win a spin on the Mega Win Wheel. This secondary wheel offers you the chance to win either the Mini Mega, Big Mega, or Giant Mega jackpots.

Maximum pay-outs

Even though there are 3 big jackpots to be won in the Mega Win Wheel bonus, they aren’t actually progressive jackpots. These Mini, Big, and Giant non-progressive jackpots include wins of 100x, 750x, and 6,000x your total bet,, respectively. In total, you could win as much as 4,500,000 coins in the Great 88 slot.

Summary

This new slot has already been launched, and should be available at all good casinos offering BetSoft Gaming software.

Even though Great 88 may look no different than other Chinese luck themed slots developed by this software provider, the special features take it above and beyond anything we’ve seen them from before. For those reasons alone, Great 88 is certainly a winner, and well worth a look.
