...sucks!
I played a few spins in free mode when the game was first released, and I was under the impression that all of the lights turned the same color (50/50). It turns out (as I'm sure many of you know by now) that each light turns red or green individually.
To get paid for 2 or more scatters you need to get 2 or more green lights. To get the feature you need 3 or more green lights.
The help screen doesn't clarify whether or not the number of scatters you are paid for is the number of green lights you have - for example, if you get 5 scatters but only 2 have green lights, are you paid for 2 or 5 scatters? I assume you are paid for the total number of scatters as long as you have 2 or more green lights, and that is what my analysis below represents.
I gave RTG the benefit of the doubt that each light has a 50% chance of being either Red or Green (although based on my small sample I would say that each light has a greater-than-50% chance of being Red). But let's assume it's 50/50. The following table represents the chances of winning/losing the scatter payouts (2+ green lights) and getting/not getting the feature (3+ green lights) for each number of scatters:

So the best you can hope for is a 50% chance of getting the feature... when you get all 5 scatters!
Anything less than 5 scatters and your odds decrease, of both getting a scatter payout and getting the feature.
Combine these odds with the odds of getting 3 or more scatters in the first place and it's truly horrific. And if my hunch that each light has a greater chance of being Red than Green is correct, then it's even worse.
Imagine getting 5 scatters and 4 of them are Red: you win absolutely nothing and you get no feature.
What a fantastic game for the casinos!

Good then I am not really missing anything.
Must be one of the worst game they have! I'm not fond of "Tally Ho" either. It has very boring graphics and I haven't hit a feature on it or "Green Light." However I do like the "Incan Goddess". The only one of the three I like and will play. I don't know who comes up with some of these grahic designs but some games are just plain boring to start with due to the graphics.
RTG slots that dont pay anything? 
I dont Hate RTG, i still play on them although never again on Inetbet and no where near as much as on MG but I do like the games and slots. When they play well their fun and enjoyable. My complaint is that lately this rarely seems to happen. And then they cease to be fun and enjoyable.
