Play Kerching for Free

The immediate view of this game is that it looks extremely busy. The graphics look slightly outdated and extremely over the top, but if you find your way through the messiness of the coin backdrop, you will find a simple lay out of this classic game.

Even though the focus of the page is distracted, your eyes are automatically drawn to the max jackpot, at the top of the page. The turquoise numbers stand out on the page and give a computer-feel to the game. The bold colours will grab the attention of players, but the in game animations are sure is what to keep them interested.

The colour scheme is an interesting one, but maybe it is the issue that is making the game look outdated, as well the unsymmetrical outlines of the reels and credit boxes.

Kerching offers a free slot version so players can enjoy it in demo mode as well as in real money. This is a feature that works well in the game, as it allows players to test the rules and theme out before wagering on the game without having tried it. With the visual being so unique, and possibly not to everyone’s taste, it’s probably wise for online casino players to enjoy the demo mode before staking on it. It all might take some getting used to.

One of the in-play functions that is a good feature is the ability to hold as many of the three reels as the players want. After each spin has ended, players will notice buttons, each located under each of the three reels, will start flashing. They are titled hold and nudge. They allow players to hold either one or two of the reels as they are, especially useful if there are the wealthier icons showing in the payline. The nudge simply turns the reel once, with the icon located above the one visible in the winning line moving down and being replaced by the icon following it. It’s a tactic worth employing, especially those used to how a slot machine works and wanting to win a lot of money from it.

One feature that isn’t prominent on this slot game is the autoplay button. Players will have to initiate all the plays themselves, rather than getting the computer to do it. Those that like to speed through their slot plays will have to turn on the turbo play – as mentioned earlier. Otherwise the lengthy time between clicking spin and the reels stopping will no doubt put off many players from this slot game.

In terms of the icons in the paytable, there are only six that feature. In ascending order in terms of value, they are: red cherries, orange bar sign, blue bar sign, red bar sign, a red seven and the JPM logo. It’s not often game developers get their own icon into one of their slot games. Personally, we think it’s quite a shameless plug and poor bit of marketing. Casino players don’t want to feel like a customer when enjoying their slot games.

The Kerching slot game by JPM is a lot different to most other casino games. The graphics are busy and they don’t offer key features like a progressive jackpot or autoplay. It’s definitely worth taking advantage of the demo mode, though, so players can see for themselves what they think.
