Play Pot o' Luck for Free

If you are fed up with slots that promise too much in display, design and other antics, but seem to cower away when it comes to actually paying out cold, hard cash, you are going to love Pot o’ Luck.

For starters, there is nothing unusual about this slot. Some players might be quick to criticize this lack of novelty, but take our word for it: sometimes you just don’t want to invest time in exploring new features (only to learn that they are just cute additions to an unoriginal gameplay). So, sit back and let your instincts take over.

Featuring 5 standard reels (5x4) with 100 magnificently fertile paylines, the very first impression that we had of Pot o’ Luck was that of a slot that wasn’t trying to short-change players’ fortunes by bottlenecking number of winning combos.

If a reel to payline ratio of 0.05 wasn’t good enough, Pot o’ Luck further rushes to make sure that a host of bonus features and special stocks keep coming out of its kitty as if our high-handed wishes were being granted by a genie.

We are all for simplicity and ease of gameplay (Occam’s Razor, you see!). But that said, we would certainly have loved to see just a little imagination being injected into the making of slot symbols here.

Pretty much all the symbols used in this slot are classics, and one advantage of this is that many slot players would be able to relate to them easily. What that also means, however, is that there is little in the name of uniqueness here. Regular symbols include fruity delights like apples, cherries, plums and grapes, along with a golden bell, a dollar coin and a golden horseshoe.

They all have the potential to pay out up to 500 coins, depending upon the kind of combos you end up striking. The highest paying regular symbol here is the classic 7 of the slot (the Lucky Seven, if you will). When present in a tasty 5-of-a-kind grand combination, it will pay out a no-holds-barred sum of 3,000 coins!

But how much are those coins really worth? Let’s find out…

Wagering is pretty straightforward here. If you have played any Casino Technology slot before, from 20 Star Party to Wild Hills, you’ll be at an added advantage because of the familiarity of it all.

While wagering one coin per payline, you have to ensure that the coin value you designate is between 1 cent and 10 cents. So, if you were to Bet Max this slot, you would be putting $10 at stake. This also means that the highest bounty you can expect to win merely from the base game is $300. A touch too low for high-rollers, but then again, this slot isn’t meant for them, anyway!

You can push your base game prowess by exploiting the special symbols of this slot. The solitary Expanding Wild is an actual Pot o’ Gold that can help you manipulate base game combos by subbing and shuffling regular symbols. It will appear only on non-terminal (2nd, 3rd and 4th) reels.

The scatter provided here is a Golden Star that can help you pocket up to 5,000 game coins worth up to $500. A bonus gamble feature can be used if you love taking chances on double or nothing sort of baits.

Pot o’ Luck is as easy as a slot can aspire to be. There are no major twists in the gameplay, and the slot plays out just as one would expect it to. We would surely have liked to see wider margins here, but the fact that it’s a penny slot machine means that we should have seen that coming.

If you wish to enjoy some unadulterated slot fun without putting too much at stake, this is pretty much right up your alley!
