I recently joined 32red casino and would like to know some slots that have a decent bonus and hit often(ish). I usualy stick to gold factory for the two level bonus, but can anyone tell me if this is a good slot to play odds wise? relatively speaking of course.

Or can you guys suggest some that might be better? my main objective is to take some of the bonus on offer out of my casino account.
 
Well Gold Factory has a theoretical Return To Player (TRTP) of 97.0% - which is above average for online slots.
But the most important thing about slots is the variance (or volatility):
An extremely low variance game would be boring to play as you'd likely never hit any decent sized win.
But equally a very high variance game can be frustrating as it can go for AGES giving you next to nothing, but with a small chance of a monster hit.

Different players like different things. Personally I prefer low to medium variance = more play-time, but can still often be profitable.
Gold Factory is medium variance - fun to play, but very frustrating if you don't make the right picks in the bonus round. :(

I only have stats for a few dozen MG slots, of those, the ones which the bonus features hit frequently on are:
Dogfather (and it's clone Halloweenies): Free-spins one in 76, Pick feature 1 in 84.
What on Earth: 1 in 78
Moonshine: 1 in 88
Ho ho ho, Twister and the other clones: 1 in 94
Most of the 9-liners (like those in the post above): 1 in 143 spins.

Of course, the more frequently the features hit, the less likely they are to pay BIG - you can't have it all ways!

Good luck :thumbsup:

Thanks for the reply, i couldnt find dogfather on 32red but are you able to tell me how you find out the variance levels of different slots? and how often bonuses hit or are these just your personal findings?
 
If you play Net Entertainment games someday there are some games where the bonus happening often, for instance Reel Rush and Steam Tower

Although I believe it is possible to calculate the variance of a game, I don't know how it's done and I think it is mostly subjective based on each player's own experience. I have found the variance guides given by software suppliers themselves (e.g. RTG or 3Dice) to be way off - so I use my own judgement.

The chances of hitting bonuses I calculated many years ago when I started my SlotBeaters website. This was done by plotting out the reel strips and calculating the odds - a very long process. It was so time-consuming, and the site not popular enough, so was forced to give up doing it.
The stats I published can be found here:

I find the free spin bonus on Jurrasic Park is relatively easy to hit. It's rare I don't get at least once with a $100 bankroll betting $2.40 per spin. It's my go to game when my funds are low and routinely gets me out of trouble.
 
I usually play Adventure Palace when I play at 32 red, I get the free spins often but a I also try a lot of the other games mixing it up a little to see what they like.

One day I went through all the games 25 spins on each game and found my winner lol that day was a lucky day for me :)

Good luck and hope you find your lucky slot :)
 
Assuming bonus means free spins these are the MG slots I usually play (my stakes are never higher than $1)

- I sometimes give league of fortunes a shot for around 50 spins - I have a decent hit rate of landing the bonus but after 50 spins if I'm not close to my starting balance I am out of there!
- Fat Lady sings - I sometimes give this about 100 spins either 0.25p or 0.50p - Quite a few times I have had bonus rounds in quick successions and I really like Fat Ladie's bonus round its like a bonus feature + free spin round in one.
- Playboy - Out of the 243 ways med/high variance themed slots (Immortal Romance, Thunderstruck 2, Finer reels of life, Jurassic Park, Playboy) I have had the most luck landing bonus rounds on playboy. Does not mean I'll get anything good out of it (which is typical of MG slots for me) but in terms of frequency landing bonus rounds I get it the most out of Playboy. I still prefer to play Immortal romance though the bonus rounds are much more fun.
- Girls with Guns - Frozen Dawn

Games I would avoid if you need a land a bonus round to save your life :-

- Bust the Bank - sometimes can take forever to land
- Deck the halls
- Alaskan Fishing / Lucky witch - I have had with over 12 months of play now landed multiple bonus rounds on these games and they each have paid crap all !!! Your luck may be better than mine but if it wasn't for the base game being kind of nice I would not play these 2 for the bonus rounds
- Sweet Harvest - I don't really like this slot - its frustrating to say the least

Good luck !!!
 
I like fairly frequent bonus rounds too. You rarely hit monster wins, but I'm happy with 20 - 40 times bet if they happen relatively frequently.

Cashanova is a good one for that. You can hit pretty poor rounds, but not usually that 3x stake crap. Has a bonus pick feature and and free spin one.

Arianna seems to hit relatively frequently for free spins, but they are often dismal.

Mermaids Millions is a decent older game with a bonus round which pays fairly low, and a free spin round as well, which pays okay or better.

Ho Ho Ho is a favourite of mine.

The Dark Knight, Mega Moolah progressive, is actually not that hard to hit a bonus round on. Hard to hit a decent one though, and like all progressive slots a big chunk goes into paying a million plus jackpot.

Battlestar Galactica seems to hit fairly often, but often you can hit 7 bonuses in 200 spins and end up down.

Pure Platinum and/or 32Red's branded I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here (clones), rarely go a huge length of time without a bonus round, and good hits are possible during base game too.

This slot has serious 'mood swings'!

My record is 19!!!! features over a couple of hours (was at Casino Luck) went to bed and hit it another 3-4 times when I carried on the next morning!

Last night I did over 1,200 spins and didn't hit it once!
 
I find it easier these days to hit bonus rounds on a regular basis on Netent slots.
Mostly every 100-150 spins on average on most of them. Sometimes they come in quicker and sometimes it takes a bit longer but in general this is the way they roll for me.
They have NOT the mood swings that MGS slots have where you can hit 5 bonus rounds within 50 spins or having none in like 2000 spins.
Personal record is about 2.5k spins! on Game of Thrones 243 lines, and then when I hit it to reward me with a 21x bet win. :D

Also I like WMS slots like Kronos, Amazon Queen, Jungle Wild amongst a few others to "farm" free spin rounds.

Can't be the same Jurassic Park that I've got cos when I play it it never triggers.

more frequently triggering games I know of, (no numbers to back me up just from play experience)
Loaded, Sneak a peek planet exotica, Big kahuna snakes and ladders, Witches wealth, Tomb raider 2, Munchkins.

but more frequent triggers means lower wins, if you want screenshot quality wins you have to play the higher risk money eaters, Immortal romance, Thunderstruck 2, Terminator 2, Leagues of fortune, Jurassic Park, basically anything with "way" wins and/or stacked wilds.
 
Slots from different vendors that come to mind are:

  • Lancelot WMS(only 2 scatters/wilds needed)
  • Pharaohs Fortune IGT
  • Ghost Pirates and Victorious(Net-Ent)
  • Eastern Dragon(wild on reel 1 and 5 to activate)
  • Wild Spirit fairly often feature reel 1 and 5(playtech)
  • Pharaohs Secrets hits fairly frequently and can retrigger(playtech)
 
Not a MG slot but wild north by play n go seems to hit the bonus most often. But you do only get 1 to 3 spins in this features which often pay very low or even nothing
