WARNING!
When Katmandu goes cold, get the hell off it or you will lose everything!
This game can have awesome bonus rounds, but you can easily go over 1000 spins between bonus rounds when it's cold. I got an awesome bonus round in the beginning and never saw the bonus again in over 1000 spins. This happened two or three times now. First day the game was out I got 5-elephants X5 on the bonus round betting $1.26/spin for a $308.00 bonus round, and then it went south big time. I've never seen a bonus round game that can go so long between bonuses. Ironically, when the game was new, I got 5-scatters, but most of the time getting 3 seems impossible.
Regarding Katmandu this game seems to be very in favour for the Casino, together with Harveys. I base my conclution on this on the mere fact that this game very often gives winspins, not huge but you win something all the time.
Take Harveys as an example, two scatters which doubles your spin, seemes to come all the time. Looking mathematical in this this is not goot.
Take the easy calculation, we do $100 wagering for illustration purposes.
You wager $100 and get two scatters and get $200, you then spin one more time without any pay and are back on $100 again - this is typical for Harveys.
Two spins equals $200, payout $200. This is 100% payout, and if we are talking 95% payout you have already on theese two spins lost $10. Keep doing this a few more times and you owe the casino $50 without winning or loosing anything. Point is, when you have spinned say 100 spins on $5, you have already wagered $500 - and in many cases at this point you havnt lost more than say $50. In this scenario the only mathematical way you accually can win, is by hoping someone messed up and had alot of $5 dollar spins which went out the window...
I see this for both Kathmandu and Harveys, they give small wins all the time which really destroys your chance in hitting big. On the other hand, I don't like my experience from Vinul Coundtown which ate $2500 on $9 with 20 spins between each $2 win... However this only goes to show that I was wagering foolishly here after someone probably hit $5000 or so. How nice of me filling that statistical gap so that new players could have more fun,
