Question SLOT OF THE YEAR 2018! We need YOUR choices!

[mellody]

It was hard to find 5 games but here are my choices, Blueprint Megaways get my vote, also their new Vikings Unleashed which isn't on the list. Much prefer these to the original BTG ones.

1. Blueprint - Buffalo Rising Megaways
2. Blueprint - Diamond Mine Megaways
3. Play n Go - Rise Of Olympus
4. Red Tiger - Totem Lightning Power Reels
5. Yggdrasil - Baron Samedi

Tosser - Play n Go - Hugo Goal (so tedious)

 

[speedescu]

Tricky one but this would be mine:

1. Buffalo Rising Megaways
2. Napoleon
3. Jammin' Jars
4. Wolf Gold
5. Wild Heist

Tosser - Book Of Gods. The book just annoys the hell out of me turning every spin.

 

[eizei]

1. Genie Jackpots Megaways
2. Jamming Jars
3. Lucha Maniacs
4. Goonies
5. Vikings

Tosser: Book of Gods. Massive misstep from BTG in my opinion even though I love their games.

 

[Reelsoffun]

Haha, one man's meat is another man's poison...

1. Donuts - BGT
2. Who Wants to be a Millionaire - BGT
3. Legacy of Egypt - Play 'N' Go
4. Napoleon - Blueprint
5. Halloween Jack - NetEnt

Tosser award goes to Book of Gods - BGT

Worst game this year is Donauts like the idee but it dosnt pay

The fact that donuts is appearing in so many top 5's would suggest you just been unlucky so far on it..... for me its far from worst slot this year! lol

 

[Lauren Boyle]

book ra 6
lucky lady 6
jurassic gaints
book of dead
magic mirror

 

[SteveBr]

I've noticed quite a few people have picked Book of Dead, but hasn't that been out a couple of years now?

 

[dunover]

book ra 6
lucky lady 6
jurassic gaints
book of dead
magic mirror

These are all old games, the idea is to pick new games released for 2018, of which there is a list at the start of the thread! Thanks.

Yes, Novomatic's Play'n Go's book of dead was the inaugural winner back in 2016. If people don't use the list I'll just discard the invalid choices, but to be fair very few have included any ineligible games.

 

[deanparkr]

Here are my choices:

1. Lakes Five (ELK)
2. Extra Chilli (BTG)
3. Diamond Mine (Blueprint)
4. Legacy of Egypt (PnG)
5. Hotline (NetEnt)

As for the Tosser slot it has to be: Jingle Spins (NetEnt)

 

[mcgameboy]

I have to go purely on what I have played. There's probably about two dozen games on that list that would have had a chance of making my Top 5, had I even tried them just once (Afterlife Inferno, Book of Ra Magic and Legacy of Egypt being among them).

My Top 5

1. Genie Jackpots Megaways (Blueprint)
2. Napoleon (Blueprint)
3. Laser Fruit (Red Tiger)
4. Eastern Emeralds (Quickspin)
5. Wild Heist at Peacock Manor (Thunderkick)

Just missing out - Jammin Jars and Spinal Tap

TOSSER - Poke The Guy. I've never played it, but it just looks so wrong on so many levels.

 

[Roedgaard72]

Don`t agree with opinons about WWTBAM. I didn`t hit 1000x plus, but that is not my criteria for reviewing a slot. I like the fact that both base and bonus has potential. Not that brutal imo.

1. Diamond mine (Blueprint) not as brutal as Bonanza -still great potential
2. Primal (Blueprint). Great excitement in both base and bonus.
3. Jamming Jars. Very volatile and haven`t seen a 200x plus myself, but still..
4. Who wants to be a millionaire I really like it. Just as you are swear about getting 10fs "only", it throws in 200-500x. Think it is pretty balanced.
5. Vikings (Netent) -Finally a decent slot. Can be a sucker to get the bonus, but it is so thrilling, when you get it.

TOSSER: Book of god. Terrible!! Shite basegame and even the bonus is not getting me off my chair. Poor math model. Expected more.

Merry Christmas folks

Since looking at these I've played a bit on Legacy of Egypt and Napoleon. I won't change my top 5 but these two are very good games.

Massive late shout for Baron Samedi by Yggdrasil. Really great game that I've enjoyed playing over the last couple of weeks. If you look at the title name really quickly during play, it looks like it says Bacon Sarnie, which is even better! Might get the frying pan on in a bit...

Now I really feel that the worst slot of the year prize goes to Book of Gods. BTG wanted to make their own "book of something game" but unfortunately the end result was a pile of sh*t. And what was the thing with their other releases. Two Bonanza clones per year. Really? Come on @Big Time Gaming ! You just have to do better with the fresh new ideas next year. Blueprint was a way head of you during this year and they are making interesting slots for the player with your Megaways license at the moment. It's time to wake up.

I personally like the most Queen of Riches (cloning reels feature), Dragon Born and StarQuest type of megaways slots but I have a bad feeling that we're not gonna see "that kind" of games anymore. Slower spins for the bigger wins was exciting and good idea, when BTG made StarQuest and Dragon Born (it's just not the same feeling with Book of Gods). When you get that slower spin with bigger bet size on StarQuest, it really makes my heart beat faster. You don't get that same emotion on Book of Gods. The feeling is more like "meh, it doesn't pay anyway. No need to be excited". A slot is well made when you get that extra excited feeling during a feature or one single slower big win spin. Great graphics are just extra plus, not the main thing (IMHO).

Yeah, I said that in my video review - Samedi is a very good and interesting game, glad some other agree!
The voting is over shortly. Grand result tomorrow....
