Play Pocket Mon for Free

Pokemon is the brand which is known and loved and in 2016 has enjoyed a revival in interest thanks to the Go game which has seen players scouring the real world for the creatures.

Pocket Mon bears an unmistakable resemblance to Pokemon, with a whole host of strikingly similar symbols which you’ll instantly recognize.

The background to the reels may look fairly insignificant at first but peer closely and you’ll notice that it looks like the map which appears on Pokemon Go to guide you to the nearest character. A light green color with grey roads and intersections, it's easy to overlook the significance at first glance. However, a closer inspection, plus the Pokeball – or an image almost identical to it! – at the top of the page, soon reveals the game it’s clearly based on.

And if you listen to the soundtrack to the game, you’ll find the melody is also mind-blowingly similar to Pokemon Go too…

On the reels, the likeness continues with a host of lovable creatures that you’ll instantly want to get to know.

Green, yellow, blue, white and orange monsters, dinosaurs and birds are all waiting to be spun but if you're a Pokemon fan you’ll spot the similarity to characters such as Pikachu, Squirtle, Charmander and Bulbasaur!

Once you’ve finished marveling at the funny creatures before your eyes, head over to the pay table to discover how much cash they could be hiding.

To get a win you’ll need to line up identical symbols and the more you match the greater your prize will be. Some symbols require a match of at least three to pay out but the top value symbol only needs one to be landed. The highest possible prize you can win from the regular symbols is 2,000 for matching five.

The boy catching the baseball – remind anyone of Ash? – is the wild symbol which only appears on reels 2,3 or 4. However, it can substitute for other symbols to help create a winning combination more easily.

The lookalike Pikachu is the scatter, helping players further by handing out free games.

Head back to the main screen to start your battle with the pocket monsters but just before you do you’ll need to set up your betting preferences.

You won’t need to worry about pay lines with Pocket Mon, as the game features the innovative 243 ways to win structure. This means that you’ll just need to line up symbols on adjacent reels moving from left to right.

You can set the value of the coins from the minimum of 0.01 up to the maximum of 2.00 with a limit of five coins per line.

Keep a special eye out for symbols in a gold circle when you’re playing, as when they appear in a certain order from left to right they can trigger extra prizes. Gold symbols can also unlock the progressive jackpots, of which there’s four to choose from.

The Gold Coin feature can help to decide the jackpot which will be paid out. You’ll have the choice of 12 coins and you’ll need to select one to reveal the hidden jackpot. Once you've uncovered three matching symbols the jackpot will be decided.

If you want to play but relax at the same time you can choose the Auto Play feature. This spins the reels on your behalf without changing your chances of a win. Sit back and wait for the prizes to come rolling in – and when you've had enough, you can switch the feature back off again with just a single click.

Pocket Mon by Spadegaming will be loved by anyone who's a fan of the Pokemon genre. Cute characters and kawaii design combine to create a Japanese themed game of top quality. But game play hasn't been forgotten for the sake of appearance, as there’s a huge number of features and extras that can really bump up the prizes on offer, making it a very attractive slot.
