Play Double Flash for Free

As we were just talking about the bell, we’ll get into the dynamics of its bonus level for it’s quite a lot to get your head around. It sounds like it should be straightforward: unlock the special level, pick the bell, yada yada yada, but then it gets complex and we start to drift off into our own world.

Returning to when you select the bell of your choice, whichever of the three you choose will essentially transform into two different fruits, with you having to decide which of the two you would like. Okay, so a double dose of pick a prize.

When you’ve got the fruit you want you will see it appear on the reels for the next 10 spins, which have been handed to you for free. Not only will these symbols appear on the regular grid, but also on a smaller one beside the other. When the spins are over, the winlines with the unique fruit will be added to the normal ones and a payout will be made.

Move over lucky stars, we’re all about the blue stars in this game of Double Flash. That’s because over three of the symbols will cause a chain reaction of free spins, with you having to determine whether they’re defined or randomly selected. Just as you did with the bell, users will have to decide between three stars, one of which is clearly marked with the number of free goes you’ll have. The other two are steeped in mystery, and so you won’t know if you’ll receive more or less until you choose one of them.

You don’t have to double your bets, but if you do you’ll feel an instant reaction and we’re not talking about regret; Double Flash gives you more money for the more cash you bet. To see what you can hope to win back, click through the betting range while the payout table is open, that way you’ll see the sums increase as your stake does. The most you can bet is 25 credits.

The Autoplay button gives both a specific number of rounds and an auto feature, meaning you can either restrict how long the game plays without you, or let it keep going until you or it says otherwise. Whether you keep the option going is entirely up to you, as the autospins can be ended if and when the need should arise.

Once you’ve figured out how you want to proceed, all that there’s left to do is either spin yourself or sit and watch the grid roll for you. It’s so simple it's childsplay (not that we recommend children playing these slots. Bad, very bad, idea).

Double Flash is enjoyable and that’s all there is to it. There’s no need to harp on about what it lacks or what it doesn’t as classic games aren’t designed with frills and extras in mind, so the fact that there’s two bonuses is a big deal. The game would have been more honest to its roots without the bell bonus round, but it was fun when it triggered and so we can’t complain too much.
