Demo play not the same as real - GameArt slots

There is a game called Thunder Bird from GameArt.

I like the game, played some in real with mixed results.

But the past few days, I've been playing in fun mode at VideoSlots. I've tried both desktop and mobile platforms.

This game in demo mode hits the bonus like crazy. Rare to go fifty spins without one. Less than 10 spins is common. I've only once gone over 100 spins.

Took me less than 1/2 hour today to get my balance, starting with 500 and $10 bets to over 100K, with max bet of $40. The other day it took me nearly an hour :p

Only once have I lost the initial stake of $500, and I think I started with max bet that time.

I will say that I think the bonus rounds pay similar to real mode, generally being 40 to 150 x bet, with a very few under 20x, and again a very few over 400x.

It's always been my understanding that demo mode must pay the same as real mode as a licensing requirement.

The Game Payouts on the VS pages show a RTP in line with what should be expected.

I'm going to try some of GameArt's other titles in demo mode as well.

Wondering if anyone knows of other casinos running their games? I would not imagine that this is isolated to VS.

I've sent Dan a link to this thread.
 
While I do appreciate a speedy reply, there is no way you could have spent any time at all investigating my claim. I realize lucky streaks happen, but day after day to over 1000 - 2800x bet size in short periods of time?

Probably "up" 400,000 in about 6 hours of demo play. Hit frequency for the bonus round on an average of approximately every 25 spins?

I'm hoping a few more players will try this and see if they have similar results.
 
Shall play now with demo, and try it out. Perhaps make a deposit and compare it to. With lowest bet in demo and real if it come to that i deposit ofc.

Played that game now in demo, got 4 features in less than 100 spins, lowest bet. went from 40euro to 100 euro, increased bet to 0.4 lost it all with no feature still in demo mode. Have to try it with real money later today. But felt like the real deal, lowest bet = win increase bet lose it all, LoL.
Dan, does the bet size affect the slots in some way, or is it just what it feels like sometimes? I mean if you playing at the lowest bet, you can get feature after feature with decent wins, then increase it from 0.2 to 0.4 and feature hunt is on, but win from those can be higher? So do that in some way determine how often features will trigger and payouts? Or is it just me that have that feeling? :rolleyes::lolup:

There have been occasions where a game or even all the games of a specific provider have become unavailable at some casinos, due to server problems or whatever.
But the demo versions have still been playable.

I remember one occasion years ago at Jackpot Joy, when the games server went down, there were loads of people complaining in the chatrooms.
Then someone mentioned that all the demo versions were still playable. The reply from the chat host, after consulting the management, was that the demos were run from a separate server.
Whether it makes any difference, I don't know
 
Just a thought but could the demo mode not reflect a 'hot streak' like it will do at times with cash play?
 
Bored so googled the slot and gave it a try on demo at some site not VS tho.

2nd spin on $1 bet bonus paid $224 . 8 spins later bonus again paid $338 .
More than doubles 500 starting balance in 10 spins. That said it all.

Decided to be a high roller lol raised bet to $10. Balance went down to $890 about 15 spins and got another bonus paid $1410.

So demos totally fake on this slot.

For me 150 spins, 6 bonus round catched (first one after 63 spins). The lowest I got was down $18 from starting balance. Ending balance +$162.25 from start balance. All bets $1. Pretty hot game, I must say !

Link to GameArt official website for anyone who want to try the game in fun mode: Old / Expired Link -- let's everyone play 15-20 minutes for 100-150 spins and share results ?
 
I remember years ago I used to play at "888[dot]com Casino-on-net" (the woman said that as you opened the client). Only ever in demo mode, and used to win MILLIONS... it really was so easy.

Finally made a $200 deposit one day and it was a different casino entirely. Every game was ice cold.
