NEW - 3Dice Slot Enchanted Spins

[aceking123]

hi , ( hijack ) question anyone know how to get picture from 3 dice gallery onto here ?

 

[ChopleyIOM]

I am beginning to think getting any decent win, on any slot or game for that matter at 3 Dice is like:

trying to squeeze a buffalo nickle until the buffalo poops.

There's nothing crazy about this slot, there really isn't.

It's definitely something a bit different by 3Dice's standards, but TBH it's very much of a muchness when it comes to medium-high variance slots on other softwares such as WMS, MG and IGT.

I can only repeat my advice earlier in this thread, unless you're happy to risk a quick bust out in the hope of hitting a big win, match your stake to your bankroll and make sure you can 'afford' many hundreds of spins.

I've had awful runs on all softwares, and I've had good runs on all softwares, 3Dice is the same as anywhere else in that regard IMO.

How much were you betting?

Either 80c or $1.20 per spin. I guess I must have got something like 300-350 spins from my $200, but what an awful slot; dead spin after dead spin, and when I did get a win it was pretty pathetic.
The pay-table is heavily weighted towards 5-of-a-kind wins and I can imagine you'd get a huge win with 3 expanding wilds & the right symbols on reels 1 and 5. Sadly though, I didn't even manage to get 2 wizards at once.

It's a high variance slot, and it does exactly what all high variance slots are capable of if you catch it wrong! I don't think it's fair to call it an 'awful slot' based on such a tiny play sample.

I've just had the deposit from hell at Unibet playing Wizard of Oz Ruby Slippers at 30p spins, £100 gone in just over an hour and I never topped 30x stake, three pick-me bonuses that gave me the wicked witch first or second pick (REALLY annoying), no other bonus rounds, few ruby slippers wilds that never did more than two reels and didn't drop in anything good etc etc. (Even 96% RTP can't save you sometimes!)

But I'm playing a medium variance slot (probably on the high side of medium), this is what happens, it's a bad run, but I'm not going to call it an 'awful slot' just because I didn't win on it this time.

No offence KK but like all high variance slots, Enchanted Spins needs some decent playtime to start to get a feel for it, once you've had a high paying bonus round (it gets pretty damn exciting once you get to Level 3 and the game is telling you what your potential win is), or you've seen those three expanding wilds in the base game a few times - it's an entirely different proposition.

I agree it can be frustrating when neither of the above are happening, but such is the nature of high variance slots. A $200 bankroll playing 80c-$1.20 per spin could have paid off very nicely for you, but you didn't get lucky and bust out. I hate busting out as much as the next man (I'm feeling fairly aggrieved with Ruby Slippers at the moment ), but one has to separate the annoyance of losing from the slot we're playing and its variance.

If you flat out think that Enchanted Spins is a bad slot because of the design, or graphics and sound, or bonus round structure etc then that's a different matter - but they don't seem to be the terms on which you're getting cross with it

Played thru a few deposits on 20-80cent spins had a few decent wins on Wizards but feature is bad!!! IMHO Slot would have been a lot better with Freespins as a bonus, especially with those expanding wilds!

No, you're right - I'm cross because a) I lost, and b) I haven't even seen the bonus feature yet!

But even so, compared to 3Dice's other High and Very High variance slots I seem to have got much less play-time on this one (because the wins I have hit in normal spins have been so rare and so crap).

I agree it looks great - so maybe I'd better throw another $100 or so at it & see if my luck changes...

BTW; a minor correction, my higher bets were at $1.40, not $1.20 as stated earlier (not that it makes much difference!)

I still like my description better! LMAO!

 

[bigjohn]

Gotta post the better stuff too!

Ok, I played a bit more today on this new slot. Got my first feature round after 154 spins, that, plus my 400 spins from the other night made around 550 spins till my first Dragon feature. Paid 32X.

Hit 3 more features in the next 200 or so spins. Highest was 85X (not bad).

My total feature stats so far; average 190 spins/feature game, average feature win 48X.

I had 3 3-reel-wild blocks that paid pretty well.

All in all, nice job on the creativity and graphics.

Medieval Moolah is still my fav at 3Dice

 

[nisosbar]

Okay, my very first real money spin, i.e., spin No. 1:



Not bad, eh? LOL - I like it - it gives you a different kind of gaming experience, it's pretty, and fun. And the potential for really good wins.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

Just a quick heads-up on this slot, if you're looking for a way to quickly 'read' the 2-3-4 stacked wilds when they come in (and they're not that rare TBH), just bear in mind that 18 of the 20 winlines finish on the same level of the reels that they start on.

i.e. If you want to know what's going to make a 5OAK passing through to the other side, simply look for matching symbols on the same level (top, middle or bottom), because with the exception of two diagonal winlines, every single winline finishes off where it started from in terms of top, middle or bottom.

The paytable is very '5OAK heavy', to the extent that you're far better off with low paying symbols making 5OAKs, than high paying symbols making 4OAKs.

I really do like this slot, it's come very close to busting me out this evening from a £100 deposit on 20p spins, but after being down to my last £2 I've rallied up to over £50, but it's going to take something very nice to get me back to where I started from. Biggest win on this session is 224x stake.

If I had to compare it to another slot or slots, it would be the medium-high variance WMS slots, in that it's weighted very much towards 50-200x stake wins with occasional bigger hits than that, and you have to have the bankroll to ride out the fact it doesn't have much in the way of trivial 'maintenance' wins.

I also like the way it's very no-nonsense, just two things to focus on, hitting those expanding wilds in the base game, and getting through to Level 3 on the bonus round (which is possible from a three scatters trigger and can yield over 1000x stake, rising to over 3500x stake on a five scatters trigger).

This is a good slot IMO, needs a bit of patience and needs some spins lumping through it, but it's got a solid excitement factor IMO because you know it can hit big out of the blue on the expanding wilds, and even a basic three scatters trigger can pay big.

Of the new 3Dice slots, I hate Scatterville Skunks, think Kyoko's Quest is alright, Arctic Treasure is pretty good - whereas this is a fine 3Dice slot and will join Super Suits +, Medieval Moolah and Payola as one of my favourites there.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

Not long after that last post I hit a nice 225x stake win that nearly put me back to my starting point of £100. (£45.00 from a 20p spin.)

(Four scatters trigger, if you look at the pick history it could have been very nice but it all went a bit wrong on Level 3.)

Played on for a little bit after this but couldn't top my starting point of £100.

(Win has not yet been added to balance in the screenshot below BTW.)



Having caught up with last night's Newsnight on the BBC iPlayer, and with it coming up to time to think about bed, I decided to try and quickly get back over £100 by betting red on roulette.

From a balance of £97.50, a single win on a red £3 spin on roulette would do the job. (Obviously each loss required a double-up for the next spin.....)

£3 bet lost to black, then £6 bet lost to black, then £12 bet lost to black, then £25 bet won on red, for a £50 win, which put me back over £100.

Needless to say I was past the point of no return and I would have done a £50 spin on red next, and then the rest of my bankroll on red if needs be......

As it is, the spin came in, and I'll call it there for the night!

 

[ChopleyIOM]

Just as a little coda here, although not entirely related to this slot.

My last £100 deposit at 3Dice lasted me three evenings, mostly playing Enchanted Spins but did decamp off to my old favourites Super Suits + and Payola, plus a bit of Medieval Moolah and a couple of others IIRC.

After three evenings of play (not ENTIRE evenings of play, just the amount of play I wanted to do ), I found myself in a position to withdraw £282 last night, a tidy £182 profit after many thousands of spins.

On one level I was inclined to leave my balance in there, but I'd had a nice run, I also already knew I'd need a bankroll to do my daft 'one spin on every MG slot' session - Link Outdated / Removed - and I was kind of thinking I'd probably be wanting to play some WMS slots at Unibet.

That was last night, (3Dice paid in about six hours overnight, their usual exemplary service), fast forward to this evening (and before the start of Saturday night proper!), that £282 has gone.

£100 lost on my 'play a single spin on every single MG slot' escapade (achieved a 65% RTP, finished with less than £40 from a £100 deposit and blew the rest).

£100 gone at Unibet playing Oz and Ruby Slippers on 30p spins, hit a Super Big Win on Oz but other than that it was all pretty crap, never in profit and always heading towards a bust.

Final £82 back into 32Red for some random play on the MG slots that had caught my eye on my 'every slot' playthrough, did get some reasonable playtime in all honesty but never once looked like being in profit and it was basically downhill traffic all the way.

(And this is on top of a not-great run on the WMS slots at Unibet recently too, plus the absolute horror show I had on them at Jackpot Party in March - that's one thousand pounds I'll never be seeing again....)

Now I realise it's not exactly headline news that it's possible to win and lose on all softwares, but I do IMO see 3Dice getting unfairly maligned sometimes, but to my mind they're as good (and potentially as bad ) as any other software out there.

I honestly have no problem ranking 3Dice's fairness and randomness alongside any other software in existence, I've seen incredibly good runs on all softwares, and their counterpart incredibly bad runs - 3Dice rolls the same as any other software in that regard.

I was going to make this post to this thread but it was closed by Bryan (and with good reason TBH) - https://www.casinomeister.com/forums/threads/how-in-world-does-anyone-win-at-3dice.55675/

My point here? No real point I guess, except to say that in my book 3Dice are pretty cool, and they certainly shouldn't be seen as some sort of 'US only casino', because I think they have a lot to offer all players, plus the engagement of Enzo here at CM is rivalled only by Chris (binary128) from Galewind.

 

[weplant]

I agree and it is nice to see someone be open minded about 3dice..You have good and bad runs on all software..It is gambling..Sometimes 3dice
can be quite stubborn, but they are the first to admit their slots are higher variance, thus the chance for some nice wins..They are mine #1 go to
casino.. Being in the USA, I am quite limited..I enjoy the games, the customer service is outstanding and you know you will get paid..A very large plus in my opinion..I have been playing for two days on my deposit there, I have had the opportunity to withdraw, but I choose to keep spinning, so if I do not
make a payout it is thru no fault of 3 dice..

 

[bigjohn]

One thing is for sure, the merest mention of 3Dice around here is guaranteed to generate page after page of passionate responses. Players just feel different about 3Dice than most other casinos. Despite some of my past comments I am still a regular player there and will likely be for quite a while.

I agree! They are a big in my book. I view it as entertainment and
I get my entertainment value from this casino. Highs, lows, big wins, big losses;
3Dice just has that magic touch that makes me come back for more. Gotta love that!

 

[skiny]

I found something I don't like about this slot.



This should say YOU are here. Seriously.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

Ack!

I got absolutely spannered by this slot last night, a £130 deposit totally demolished on 20p spins, and it didn't take very long either.

Hit the three wilds ONCE but they didn't make any 5OAKs and one of the stops on reel one was taken by a scatter.

Had the feature a few times but IIRC it didn't top 30x stake.

No complaints as this slot has been good to me up to now (and I've had a great run at 3Dice overall), but like all higher variance slots, catch it on the downswing and it'll kick your arse into the gutter.

Then I watched Day of the Dead on Netflix 'cause that was the sort of mood I was in.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

Well I did at least get some play time today, but the end result is very similar, £100 gone at 20p spins.

Managed a couple of decent wins (nothing over 200x stake though), but never got back over my starting balance and it was pretty much downhill traffic overall. (The three wilds turned up a couple of times but refused to make anything substantial.)

And now, according to my super-mega Excel spreadsheet of profit/losses, I'm now at the tipping point whereby my next £100 deposit will, in real terms, put me into a loss overall for the last twelve months. (This is my profit/loss including Neteller fees.)

I could go for the 'politician approach' however, and not count the fees as actual losses, which still gives me a buffer of over £200.......

The problem is that I don't have the land-based AWPs to subsidise my online losses any more. This is down to two factors:

1) The selection of machines in my town at the moment is crap (only a small selection of AWPs are 'doable')

2) I can't be arsed trudging around the pubs

Quite scary to think that I've deposited over £10.5K over the last year though..... That's actual cash deposits into Neteller, and doesn't include moving money around casinos. i.e. A withdrawal from 32Red and then redeposited into 3Dice won't show up in that figure, it's purely money that I've loaded my Neteller account with from my gaming credit card. (Even for a low-roller like me, it all adds up.....)

Well, at least you're probably one of the few that's up! Now you are back to square one, as is usual in gambling. You are at start, beginning over again, and are risking YOUR money. You are the player casinos hate at the moment, using bonuses as best as possible, w/d winnings and not losing. well only losing to 'casino neteller' lol.

That's only for the last year remember, my online history overall is very much in negative territory!

It's just that since I moved 100% to Neteller for all deposits/withdrawals, it's been a lot easier to track. (You can export everything from Neteller as a .csv file, which of course is very easy to manipulate in Excel.)

I'll see how I feel going forward, I was pretty free and easy with it all when I knew I was basically just playing out of profit, but without the AWPs to bolster things on the baseline, I'm left playing random games with a house edge, and that's a one way ticket to Loseville......

Neteller fees

Wouldn't it be cheaper to deposit and withdraw directly to your credit card instead of having the Neteller buffer between you and the casino? I withdraw all the time on my credit card, it's not instant but there's no fee and once it's credited, I see it as real money instead of "gaming tokens" (unlike when I've got money in online wallets).

I don't want to do that for two reasons:

1) It increases your risk profile with the card provider.

and

2) I do like to have the ability to move money around quickly, so for example if I withdraw from Unibet one evening, I know the cash will be available to redeposit elsewhere the next day (or indeed later on the same day).

 

[ChopleyIOM]

364x stake this evening - £72.80 from a 20p spin.

Determined to crack 1000x on this at some point and get a screeny into the 1000x or better thread

This is a nice three wilds drop in here though, the book is one of the top tier symbols and has made a good number of 5OAKs, the Jack somewhat less so, but its 50AKs are still as good as the best paying symbol's 4OAKs.

I did have a bad run on this slot (as documented above) but in true 3Dice fashion there was a generous free chip in my account when I logged in this evening (no WR and no strings attached). Unfortunately the free chip was consumed by the ENCHANTED SPINS MONSTER, but on my subsequent deposit I've done somewhat better.

I shall continue with my work on this slot, until it either drops the big one or it drives me insane like Fortune Falls did :axeman2:

 

[bigjohn]

It sounds like you found a slot you are really enjoying! It does not get any better than that. Give 'em hell Chopley!

 

[ChopleyIOM]

Here's kidgloves hitting a 5-scatters trigger.....

Pays a rather disappointing 336x though, I was hoping that the 5-scatters triggers, being as rare as they are, would propel the player into 1000x stake or better territory.

Nice Accent!!!

 

[ChopleyIOM]

New high, 545x from a four scatters trigger.

Was hoping this would be 1000x stake or better but it all went a bit wrong after the two upgrade picks, still a nice win though.

My current stats on this game are 21654 spins and an RTP of 98.77% - so clearly I'm due for a bruising run at some point....

[bigjohn]

Here's my best to date. Rolling a little higher trying to make some dough. $.60 per spin hit for 393X. In the dragon bonus I can't find a fire for nothing.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

New 'high score' on Enchanted Spins for me.

630x stake off the expanding wilds. There was a wizard on 2 and 4, which expands to cover 2-3-4, and crucially I've got two of the top paying symbols on 1 and 5 on the same stop level, the chap with the fine moustache and beard up the top. (Nearly all the winlines on this slot start and end on the same stop.)

£126 from a 20p spin.

Asked Anna for my stats on this slot:

LAST 30 DAYS - 31569 spins, RTP 100.19% <<<< That's some pretty good stats right there, anyone who thinks 3Dice slots can't roll fairly and nicely over an extended period really needs to look no further than that.

heres a few spins on the new slot when i first played it within 20 spins or so low bet 60p high for what i had on bank roll , one for choppers !

850x stake, that's a very nice hit!

You get a screeny of the end of the picks round itself?

I really do wonder why people are lumping away at the shit that Netent are churning out these days (and losing good money in the process!), when there are seriously good slots like this to play at 3Dice, which genuinely have some proper decent hit potential in them.

Seriously, I don't think I've seen a screeny of over 500x stake on any Netent slot except DoA and JATB.

to be honest i like 3 dice i dont play there to often , but ive had cracking wins there ive 5 or 6 wins well over 500x times my bet , but i dont play like most people there , mainly you guys seem to play on bank roll , i dont , if i feel like dropping in 30 quid i shall play at whatever stake ,sometimes pays off other times doesnt.

screeny at end was done mainly because i had just started playing it didnt look at what anything paid just hit the button got 4 dragons in the got to stage 3 where i hit 5 times the total ,was a nice hit on 60 p yet to beat my 1000x times plus on artic game with 5 scatters & hit the queen doubt i shall ever see a hit like that again there .

my problem machine without doubt with realy poor rtp% is squirrel pike its below 70% after 1000s of spins

i find better play on netent but stakes are low ive had some great sessions mainly at redbet , my worst sessions without doubt micro gaming , i can win on netent then pop over to micro gaming & blow the lot (

Well I decided to give it a shot, after 200 spins or so I got my first 3 expanding wilds. Only 69x though. It really acts like a scary high variance slot, holy shit so many dead spins. Is the bonus round rare? I didn't get it yet.






Edit, got my first bonus round:

I wouldn't say it's 'scarily high variance', but like a lot of 3Dice slots (very similar profile to WMS IMO) they do away with the vast majority of those shit (but bankroll maintaining and time-passing) 5x stake or less wins and 10x stake or less wins and transplant that RTP further up the paytable.

What you'll find once you get well into this slot (I think I can speak with some degree of authority since I've put over 30K spins through it in real money this month and at least the same again in free money mode ), is it does like to kick out regular wins in the 50-200x stake range, but just like with WMS slots, you want to be making sure that your bankroll 'buys' you enough spins to see those come in.

You can of course bet big relative to your bankroll and as you can see from the screenshots, it definitely has the potential to pay off, but the flipside of that is catch it on a bad run and you'll bust out in no time.

Off the top of my head I've gone about 350 spins without it hitting a 20x stake stop trigger or a bonus round, and it could just be a minimum paying 15x bonus round at the end of the that dead patch - that's the kind of suction that can really hurt if you're betting 1-2% of your bankroll per spin. (My autoplay settings are to stop after 200 spins or 20x stake or a feature, and it will hit 200 spins without hitting the stop trigger pretty regularly.)

The other thing with 3Dice slots is that they don't fanny around with a load of pointless animations and crappy little wins, for example The Dark Knight is a high variance beast of a thing, but it disguises it to an extent with the Joker or Batman showing up on a regular basis to kick back 5x stake or something, complete with a relatively long animation. (Or IR and its tumbling reels bonus round, which if nothing else passes a bit of time on.)

3Dice slots don't do that, and TBH I like that about them, but some people won't. Whatever game I'm playing I put in turbo mode with the autoplay triggers as above, and they really do rattle along at a fair old rate, to the extent that Enchanted Spins can whack through a £100 bankroll at 20p spins in about an hour, but I'm fine with that.

As for the expanding wilds on Enchanted Spins, you'll quickly get your eye in for it, obviously you're watching for all three wizards dropping in, or the wizard on 2 and 4 which then expand the same as if all three had dropped in.

As soon as you see that happen, it's then a case of looking to 1 and 5 and seeing what 5OAKs (if any!) you're going to get. The thing you're really looking out for is matching symbols on the same stop level on 1 and 5, since 18 of the 20 winlines terminate on the same stop level that they start on.

For example in the 630x stake screenshot above, as soon as I saw the wizards drop in on 2 and 4 I knew they would expand to cover all three middle reels, and then a quick scan at 1 and 5 shows that I have the top paying symbol on the same stop, so I immediately knew I was in for a very solid win.

This slot is all about two things, the expanding wilds in the base game and getting to Level 3 in the bonus, there are other reasonable pays in there, but that's where the big hits come from - it's a proper no-nonsense video slot with solid pay potential but it is high variance and it won't muck you about with endless tedious animations and crappy 'semi-bonus' rounds like high variance slots from other providers tend to do.

Whether or not that's your bag is a matter of personal taste

EDIT - Even the three scatters trigger has good pay potential (over 1000x stake), but you need 'perfect picks' to get it, as soon as you miss an upgrade the max potential for the round halves, and if you miss twice it's basically all over, even two upgrades on the trot after that can't save the round. On the other hand, getting to Level 3 pretty much guarantees a reasonable pay, and if you've already got a decent win and you're after the 5x pick - that's really quite exciting

I got to level 3 for 95x stake.

Played around a little... I think my favorite 3Dice game is SuperSuits, followed by Enchanted Spins. Didn't enjoy the other slots much so far. One thing that irritates me in certain games (such as Artic Adventure and Kyoko's Quest) is the mandatory pause in between spins even for the tiniest win. Thats a big design flaw.

310x stake from a three scatters trigger, I was actually on course for the maximum 1050x pay on this feature right until the very last pick, when I wanted the 5x symbol instead of a cash value. (See screenshot below, I had perfect picks until the last pick.)

Compare and contrast however with the 199x stake mega-disappointment I had on a five scatters trigger last night - https://www.casinomeister.com/forums/threads/5-scatter-5-wilds-screenshots.14243/

If you get to Level 3 with a couple of picks or more left, decent pays are always available.

Kind of makes up for the kicking Arctic Adventure gave me earlier today

Nice sreenshot! you must be a pro..

Hey Chopley, with all the spins you have taken on this slot (30,000 or so) do you have a stat on about how often you hit the three wilds bonus? You seem to be pretty good with the stats.

For me that has paid at least as well if not better than the dragon bonus.

That's a good question John and TBH I couldn't give you a decent answer off the top of my head.

Certainly my expectation on a £100 deposit playing 20p per spin (i.e. a bankroll of 500x my stake) would be that I'd see them a couple of times at least.

You have to remember of course that not all three wilds are equal, if there are no 5OAKS then they can pay pretty poorly.

Next time I have a session on Enchanted Spins I'll record a few stats to get an idea of feature and wilds frequency, although TBH Enzo is usually very forthcoming with such information so we could just ask their support

182x stake isn't too bad for the three expanding but what's done you in there is the lack of matching symbols on the same level on 1 and 5. The top paying lady elf symbol will have made one 5OAK on the diagonal winline but other than that they were all 4OAKs.

If you'd have had the lady elf on the same level (top, middle or bottom - but preferably middle as that has the most winlines starting and ending there) - it would have been up at around 600-800x stake.

Very true.

Its almost a screenies that suck contender too.

Personally, I think anytime you win a nice chunk of your money back it's not a screen shot that sucks. In fact with this slot any winning spin at all is something to get excited about.

I played this in tournament mode at max bet yesterday and it dropped from 2500 to 2000 then wizards brought it up to 3000 and then down to 1500 and wizards brought it up to 2200 and then all the way to zero. I didn't see 3 dragons once. That's all pretty normal on a high variance slot but while it's spinning I like to watch how often the symbols on the first reel line up with the symbols on the last reel to give all those 5oks. Even without the wizards to trigger it those spins are pretty rare.

And I don't think I saw any spins where the first and last reels lined up to give more than 2 different 5oks. Maybe they're set up not to.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

Gawd, hard to imagine a shittier 3-wilds spins than this!

One 5OAK with the Queens on the diagonal, everything else 4OAKs on the shittiest symbols.

 

[ChopleyIOM]

213x stake off a three scatters trigger.

I don't know why people play NetEnt's junk when 3Dice have slots on their books that have far saner paytables, even if the RTPs are a bit lower.

Give me any of 3Dice's output over fucking Egg-O-Matic.

As you can see I levelled up on the first two picks so had all three picks for the last level, but unfortunately the multiplier eluded me!

This starting to look like a pretty nice withdrawal for a £40 deposit! (Win hasn't been added to the balance in the screeny below.)

 

[ChopleyIOM]

£264 was my high point on this session (as per screenshot above), Enchanted Spins didn't kick out much more of interest (100x stake was the best it managed) but played alright overall and I finished my 1000 spin block with about £220 left.

Moved over to Super Suits at very modest 15p spins (a very effective way to counter its high variance and potential meanness with bonus rounds), and saw out the rest of the wagering there. Rather unusually it was in a generous mood with bonus rounds, but they all paid pretty crap! (It's generally the other way around on that slot.)

Finished wagering in a position to move £203 over to my safe (not bad on a £40 deposit), with the odd few pounds left over (not enough to make it up to the next withdrawal point of £213) I went over to Double Dough on 20p spins, got lucky enough to hit the wheel a couple of times and was able to add another £10 to my safe - for a final withdrawal of £213 from a £40 deposit on a 100% match.

Best bit of all, the money was in my Neteller account in exactly 19 minutes, and that's on a Sunday. So I can go over to an ATM right now and withdraw £210 in cash Funny to think that the same withdrawal at 32Red would be sat as reversible until tomorrow morning.....
