Play Lucky Cherry for Free

Lucky Cherry is a simply designed classic, Vegas-style slot drawn to resemble the one-armed bandits that lined the casino floors decades ago. The nostalgia is one of the few selling points for Lucky Cherry, and this game will only appeal to players who specifically enjoy playing three-reel slots with one payline and a very straightforward paytable. On second thought, this game might appeal to a few others as well as it happens to be one of the most popular Linux slot machines currently available online.

Speaking of the Paytable, it is conveniently organized into two columns, not unlike the ones you would see on most video poker machines. The left side offering payout info on first coin wins and the right side clarifying payments on second coin winners. A variety of cherry and bar symbols in various patterns represent the symbols and include one bar, two bars, and three bars, along with the double cherries and the Lucky Cherry, who gives you a thumbs up and a wink when he appears on the reels, represents the wild symbol. When the Lucky Cherry substitutes in a winning combo, that payout will be 2X on a one-coin bet (except on “any one pays” wins), and three Lucky Cherry symbols would result in an 800-coin payout. However, on a two-coin spin, three Lucky Cherries would payout out 1600, and when the wild symbol stands in for another symbol in a winning combo, it includes a 4X multiplier on that win. The only exception being when 3 Lucky Cherries line up on the reels together. There are no scatters present in this slot, but a lack of features and additional elements is not unusual in this style of slot.

You can choose to bet one coin or bet two coins on the one payline offered, per spin. Select your choice by clicking the “Bet One” button to toggle back and forth between the two paytables. Also, you can click “Bet Max” to ensure you’re betting both coins automatically. Because Lucky Cherry offers such low bets, it is seemingly impractical to just bet one coin when the payouts on the second coin are doubled, and many players bet max on every spin. Nevertheless, many classic slots players enjoy betting only one coin and even just one cent on every spin. These players would rather stretch their bankroll out over a longer period of time mainly because they truly are playing for fun and like to play as long as possible on their allotted budgets. Penny slots are very popular and are often three-reel, classic-style slots similar to Lucky Cherry.

Lucky Cherry does offer coin value options up to 5.00 if you feel like living dangerously. With only one payline, you can’t get into too much trouble playing this style of slot game online. Wins seem to come about every 10 spins or so, but most of them are small, for example any one regular cherry symbol on the reels pays out just 2 coins, while any two cherries will pay out just 5 coins on a one coin wager. These payouts are doubled on 2 coin spins. Payouts don’t really get significant until you get about halfway up the paytable. Although you aren’t likely to be featured in any casino news stories if you win on this game, don’t let that deter you from playing what is perhaps one of the most popular Vegas games ever to be made available online.
