I have tried most on the list, but i dont play much png slots.
Reactoonz and Boof of dead are both good slots that can give nice hits.

I have some weird hate-love relationship with Dragon maiden.
I have never hit anything over 70-80x stake, but i keep going back to it every now and then.
Would guess its low-medium volatile. Looks like the bonus can deliver good hits, but it never does.
Atleast not yet.

I've played that dragon game a few times, the bonus frequency is amazing, bloody hard to get the golden spins though, like yourself I've not won much on it but I live in hope

Yeah, in theory it should be able to dish out pretty big hit in those golden spins that you unlock in the bonus.
Throw 3-4 Maidens there and make them expand+wild, and some decent symbols around.
One day it will happen.
maybe.

I'm sure @Harry_BKK has a nice datasheet of how probable that is

Back on the NK thread normal style subjects, I was reading with interest that bill gates is not too keen on elizabeth warren's wealth tax, which could involve a 3-6% charge on anyone's wealth above 1 billion. There are also charges mooted for the millionaire class too.

Gates can never spend the money he's got already, so not sure I understand his points about the warren charge affecting the motivation to make more money, but I guess he's talking about entrepreneurs in general. 3% doesn't seem too high but after 10 years you've helped yourself to nearly a third of the original year 1 amount and probably more taking into account inflation and the billionaire's wealth increasing from investments.

Her health plan is going to cost in the region of 20 trillion dollars over ten years, so average 2 trillion a year, if she could get it into a deliverable policy, with all the figures crunched, simple and clear, maybe it will be a good vote winner across the broad base of voters?

But I think she could be trying to run before she walks, and would be better focusing on universal/low charge healthcare for certain diseases and conditions, the more serious stuff. If somebody poor gets cancer or kidney disease etc..what happens to them atm if they haven't got health insurance or can't afford to pay for the tests, treatment and medicines?

If warren was clever she could say to bill gates, what would be your alternative plan to fix our health care inequality, he might have some good ideas up his sleeve, he seems very interested in vaccines and spends a lot of time trying to vaccinate the third world.

Thing is, do i really want to see the numbers on that?
"Ah, the 500x+ win you are looking for is 1 in 48 million to hit."

Oh, but i do have a question for @Harry_BKK

You said something about Creature from the black lagoon and/or Lost island were underway to be ported to Html5 right?
Really miss those games. =)

Just a question non korea related seeing we are talking HTML versions of slots...what will happen to all the games that are not in HTML in microgaming library....I’ve come across quite a few flash games this week at quite a few casinos ...will they just stop working ...

I think the browsers will stop supporting flash, so it wont be possible to open flash-games.
Atleast thats how i have understood it.
Since it wont get any security-updates etc, it will become a liability to have it in a browser.

HTML5 games will vanish latest on 1st January 2021. Right now the browsers still allow you to manually activate. That will be removed.

And to complete it all. Here the chance to hit max win on Dragon Maiden. For comparison, BoD is one in 37.5 million

strange having played it I wouldn't place it at 10/10 volatility, maybe that rating relates to the bonus round, which does feel very volatile with most results being poor.

I feel the same.
I would rate it more medium-ish. Maybe give it a 4 or a 5/10
Basegame usually keeps balance pretty steady, and bonuses usually dont take too long to land.

Does this turn in the thread mean NK is now a new market for online gambling?

Impeachment talk is too boring.

And NK is still as it was 3 years ago.

Daamnit Harry!
You need to tell me these things!

Finnally (hah) Hoff gets a worthy opponent.

 

[mack341]

Try Wild Rails. I am pretty sure you will like it.

Thanks again Harry, gave it a go just now, a nice game with potential. Only played at 30p stake as I have a tendency to lose my wins back, which is the worst feeling. In this week alone I've jettisoned about £800 back to casinos, with bonanza to blame for half that loss at least.

what a stupid game that is for rinsing a balance, after an avalanche of dead spins you're left with no option but to plough on...if you do manage to get a bonus, going for a second feels like collecting another 40 hearts on lil devil after just doing it

It was only ever tenable on the basis of crazy type wins with large multipliers, but they're rarer than a dodo.

Anyway here are my wild rail pics, decent bonus result and good base game hit when the 3 bottom railways all went wild, equivalent wins on bonanza don't come easy, and I managed to trigger two bonuses on WR in the space of about 20 mins or less, and with no inane banjo music either

Borrowing this thread for slot-related question again. =)

@Harry_BKK
Do games have to state in the help-file if betsize affects chance of hitting something?
I noticed quite a few of the sites that have Grand spinn dont have the progressive attatched to it.
But i did not see anything in the helpfile about how increased betsize would increase chance for progressive jackpot hit.

The biggest hit on the non-progressive version is "only" 10 000x, but hitting a progressive on 4p would be closer to 150 000 - 200 000x stake. So if i have the same shot at hitting a progressive as i have hitting a measly 10 000x, then its dumb to ever play the non-progressive versions.

Edit: got a nice hit for 400x just now.

To my knowledge, game providers have to state it in the rules/paytable only if the bet size is directly relative to winning the jackpot or even just entering the jackpot bonus game (if there is one).

If there is no mention, then bet size does not matter.

However, in the case of NetEnt, they have an average number of spins at EUR€1 for a jackpot to hit, e.g. on Grand Spinn Superpot it is 1 in 1,678,284 (at €1 bet). So, if you play it at €0.02 you have to take that number by x50

On Grand Spinn without the progressive it does not matter as the jackpot is fixed. The chance to win it is 1:167,700

But is that how the advantage scales?
So someone spinning at 50p will have to do twice the amount of spins to hit the progressive on average?
I didnt think the advantage of a bigger betsize was that massive.
Not that it matters, im gonna hit the progressive on 4p anyways.

Edit: And thanks for the info! Wish they had those in the game with the helpfile.

That is for NetEnt. Don't know how others calculate it. MG/Playtech are not as generous with giving out data.

Just checking if I can find anything on Quickspin's first progressive.

Quickspin only has one sentence: "The chance of winning the progressive GRAND Jackpot correlates positively with the bet size."

Just as a reminder: You are basically playing a 87% RTP game with Grand Spinn Superpot and it is worse on Quickspin's Dragon Chase with 83%. The rest is all in the jackpots.

But apart from the "mega" you do hit the jackpots quite often.
I dont know, it does not feel like a sub 96% slot when im playing it.
Luck will probably turn soon, but as of now, i have made around €90 withdrawals from the game, all on 4p spins.
It pays really well if you get all three wilds.

 

[Kroffe]

Or wait, maybe i misunderstood.
Grand spinn superpot is the one with progressive i guess, and the fixed version is just grand spinn?

I have not played the version with progressive nearly as much as the other one.

Exactly. Superpot is the progressive jackpot version.

You caught it in a lucky moment. The game has max NetEnt volatility, so it could go the 90EUR at 0.04 both ways.
