Aztec's Treasure with Feature Guarantee and fixed 25 lines

[ultra100]

Hi Meisters,


It is an interesting idea to guarantee feature after certain number of spins. We all know how it could be annoying not hitting the feature after few hundreds of spins. Of course, getting low return after finally hitting the feature, is even more annoying.

I saw this thread today, and decided to run a little test on this game. Started with around $40 balance. After few spins, I hit the feature with around 20-25x return. My "feature guaranteed meter" has been reset to 0.

Then, this nice win got me more playtime.




After a while, I hit the feature again which again reset my "feature guaranteed meter" to 0. Again, the return was around 20-25xbet. I was persistent to get the feature by reaching 100% at meter, and my balance started to decrease. Thanks to few 40-50xbet wins (including the one bellow) I managed to keep my balance between $150-$200.




Finally, my meter reached 100% and feature triggered:



Result:





And the last thing I wanted to try was the "Roulette Chance" game. When I reached 60% at meter, I activated it and won. But again, return on feature was not so great.

Result:





So, all-in-all, I have seen better result in naturally winning the feature, then by "guaranteed". Of course, this is very small sample to get some conclusions. I didn't want to experiment more. I stopped my play at $150.

@ultra1, very interesting, bcause i had the nearly same experience, but only in FUN play

started with a $100 balance and could go up to $200 and it goes always a little bit down and then again up and so on, but you have really very much playtime and the feature triggers even very often, even without the feature guarantee, although sometimes the result of the free spins is not so good, but it can also be very good, so you never know

I played in fun mode at Inetbet, did get to the 0 and was deeply disappointed at the end of the round, just one good reason i wasnt playing for real, maybe they should have this Guarantee on all the RTG games, now that would be interesting .................laurie

Thanks Ultra100 for the screenshots.

Okay I downloaded just to see this feature on fun play as well. IMO it has a plus and minus to it.
The plus: that you are guaranteed to get the bonus round.
You can also try for the bonus round on the roulette wheel before hitting the 150 spins.

The minus: There is no turbo speed to get the count down quicker.
The bonus round is the same as it would be without the feature. For having to play to 150 spins it would be nice to get more than just the 5 spins as many players will not necessarily get the extra spins during the round.

Lastly, it is a sad statement that you have to have a feature like this to gaurantee a player a bonus round. But since you have added it, then it should be on all games as they all should guarantee/give a bonus round eventually.

I think its quite a neat idea but two questions: firstly, somewhere something would have to give surely to miantain the expected return?

Simmo hit the nail on the head here, at what price to the regular payouts is this feature having on the game.

Having the extra spins for extra scatters is good, but I personally would rather wait for the free spins to come along naturally, such as getting 15 spins x7 etc on other slots where you have a shot at a decent win.

But its a novel variation and im all for that to keep these slots entertaining.

I don't know where are you playing, but this slot have certainly also the turbo speed like all another slots in all RTG casinos, except Bodog

get 15 spins x7

why 7x? it's always 3x

Ammended eu_lowroller, was the way I worded it, I was referring to other slots as a comparison.

Thanks

Yes, you're correct, found the turbo option.

I rather have $150 dollars guaranteed every 150 spin than playing feature spin.

Well, after hitting a RJ on Paydirt yesterday at Jackpot Capital, and having a little money to mess around with, I decided to give this new version of Aztec a try. I guess I'm Mr. Lucky this week because not too far into it, I hit the RJ on it! Gotta say I'm loving Jackpot Capital right now!!!
