Thanks for the reply,much appreciated.Think i will give them a try despite the horrific wagering on the welcome.bonus. Getting thoroughly fed up of almost every other slot these days being megaways (or so it seems) so a bit of nostalgia will make a refreshing change.
No worries mate.
One thing worth remembering re: bonuses. Yes the wagering is steep to say the least.
BUT....
the way CR's bonuses work is that you can forfeit your bonus balance and cashout your cash balance, before completing WR.
For example, you deposit £100 and take a 35% match bonus, giving you a starting balance of £135 and a £7,000 WR.
Let's say after doing £1,000 of wagering, you have increased your balance to £405.
You CAN choose to forfeit the 35% bonus money (which would now be at £105) and cashout the remainder, which would be £300.
Obviously, the higher your percentage match when taking a bonus, the bigger the dilemma you face, should you land a nice win in
the early stages of the WR playthrough.
There is also the possibility of the dreaded bonus ban if you do too well from taking bonuses.
But if you are able to look past that and stick to playing without a bonus, then that's great.
I used to love taking bonuses at CR, but once the WR was increased to 200x, I wasn't so keen.
I still take the occasional bonus, but nowhere near as frequently as I did when it was only 30 x B.
I know one thing.....Viper was what I started out on in my online gambling "career" and even though I have tried (and enjoyed) other games/providers, the pulling power of MG on Viper still remains for me today. And not just for sentimental reasons. I just always felt that they knew "how to do variance right" and that you could get a better game for your money.
I will be sad to see Viper go, whenever that day will be.
