Sugar Rush 1000 - another bonus buy only super bonus from Pragmatic Play?

[goatwack]

Good to see the software being so thoroughly, erm, 'tested' with the scatter ringing sound that does diddly-squat.

117,000 ways to win, and one sure-fire way to get tinnitus

Judging by her appearance, she doesn't strike me as someone to mess with

She actually looks happy, so we could even write her a letter concerning Big Bass, Sugar Rush, etc, and ask Dunover to give it to her personally at the next iGB gathering in Barcelona.

I asked a specific question - is this going to become a trend for Prag games. I know the reasoning behind a super bonus as that is obvious. My question wasn’t specific to just this game, but this game is an example of an emerging trend.

If you don’t think that being able to reasonably access the maximum potential of a game due to it being limited to certain sectors of the market then that’s your personal choice. Not everyone shares this view.

I asked a simple question and got a marketing spiel instead, and was asked if it helped.

Well, it clearly is going to be the standard way they go. But equally, I’m thoroughly of the opinion that the “potential” isn’t impacted by the type of bonus. You’re just as likely to get a max win from one bonus or another. You’re just as likely to get a 1x bonus from one or the other. You’re just paying the extra for a few extra bells and whistles.

(The worst thing Pragmatic have done recently in my opinion is adding BET MAX to the stake pop up, which on mobiles can be tapped very easily in error and then reveals the spin button. Shitty design, whether deliberate or not. Though thankfully I never have enough balance for a max bet anyway.)

From what I’ve seen on a Twitch channel I watch regularly, they get bigger wins in terms of x base bet, and certainly more max wins when buying super bonuses. Regardless of whether or not they are real money streamers, they play with the same RTPs we do (and often on second tier RTP versions of games).

I haven’t seen the max bet button on a Prag yet but I got caught out on a Novomatic a couple of years ago. Did a £70 spin on an £80 balance that I’d increased from £50 doing 20p spins…

Here's another 'super bonus' buyer lol



The 'Even Deeper' (in the shit) bonus is a joke. It throws in loads of useless multiplier wilds so the multiplier rises to the endgame target before you can win anything.

Haven’t posted for a while as, to be honest, my rant against modern slots would go on for a week and take up 172 pages but I think I may have spotted something bloody dodgy on this slot unless my eyes are playing tricks.

The instructions show the odds of winning a gamble for then feature, for example to get to 15x, is around 45% for each step, give or take.

So how the bloody hell does the wheel have 4 “winning” sections and only 3 losing?

If I could be bothered to go back a few years to a post I made about how eventually what is displayed on screen will totally not reflect what the likelihood of something happening in the slightest, and that is occurring with pretty much all new slots, but this is complete BS.

Make your gamble look weighted in the players favour unless they look in the instructions which covers the designers arse?

I mean surely this effectively is saying the gamble is meaningless right? As you are guaranteed a 10x feature they can put up what they want as RTP will be hit.

Still as long as the RTP checks are good then it’s all fair game right?

Green sections of the wheel are "lose"..

 

[Guntis]

I haven't tried the game, but i saw in Dunover's video that Red = Lose, and Green = Win. The thing is that anyone seeing 4 winning sections against 3 losing ones would naturally think that they have better chances to win, while in reality, they have less based on that 41-45% in the game file. So it's likely made for players to hit the gamble button.

Actually it’s the red sections with sharks on them that are lose (the colours align with the lose/win flags on the ladder). So the wheel gives the impression that you have a ~57% chance of winning.

If a game is to have a super bonus it really should be accessible to all players, BTGs super purple scatter is one way this can be done and also mgs terminator 2 hot modes while hard to trigger are actually possible to hit through normal play.

hell I might even play some pragmatics if theres was the possibilty of super features, i used to grind T2 for those hotmodes and more recently BTG's outlaw.

 

[TheAddict]

Imagine how many new players would see that wheel, feel that the reward for gambling is tiny (just 2 extra spins), and that's even with a lying, bullshitting wheel like above, suggesting the gamble odds are in their favour if they gamble.
I imagine many more would say "2 extra spins and I'm even more likely to lose them all than gain 2? you're avvin a giraffe!".
Can't be avvin that though!

 

[sufferinsilence]

Not being able to spin in the super bonus should be forbidden. Any game I encounter that basically bans regular players from obtaining a certain bonus is immediately being closed and never opened again.

Responsible gambling my ass.
