Retro Reels Review

There are players who like the old fashioned symbols on the classic three reel slot machines but do not like the basic format of those slot games. Retro Reels is just the online slot game for such players. It is a five reel video slot with a classic retro graphic feel. The reels are set in the console of the old land based slot machine. The buttons that operate the slot game are set in a 3D panel below the reels. The symbols on the reels are the fruit symbols Cherry, Plum and Lemon; the single, double and triple Bars, Sevens of different colors and the Dollar Sign. They are outlined in bold and are brightly colored to give the retro look. The top jackpot is 10,000 coins when five Dollar Sign symbols align in an enabled payline. As is prevalent in classic slots, there are payouts for any Seven symbols and any Bar symbols appearing in enabled paylines in required numbers.

There are some video slot features that are missing. There is no wild symbol that substitutes for other symbols to complete winning combinations. There are no animations on the reels when winning combinations appear. However, suitable background music is played as the reels spin. Read Full Review

Full Review - Retro Reels (9.43)

The coin denomination varies from 0.01 to 0.25. The options available are 0.01, 0.02, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20 and 0.25. Players can wager up to 20 coins per payline. Retro Reels has 20 paylines. The maximum line bet is 20 coins and the maximum total bet is 400 coins. In terms of credits these work out to 5.00 and 100.00 respectively. The Free Spins Logo is the scatter symbol. Scatter payouts are awarded when two or more scatter symbols appear anywhere on the reels. The maximum payout in coins for five scatter symbols is 100. The payouts in coins are converted to credits by multiplying by the total bet. Two or more scatter symbols also activate free spins. Five free spins are awarded for each scatter symbol. The maximum number of free spins is 25. All wins during free spins are doubled. The jackpot payout in the free spins round amounts to 100,000.00 credits. Retro Reels offers the regular Microgaming features like customization options, Auto Play, game statistics and Bet Max.

Microgaming has introduced an innovative feature with Retro Reels slot game called Respin. Below each reel is a Respin button that allows for increased chance of winning. At the end of any spin players can choose to respin any one reel at an extra cost. The respin costs are displayed in credits below each reel. They are not constant but depend on the possibility of payouts accruing if that reel is respun. If a winning combination giving a large payout can be expected by spinning a particular reel then the cost of a respin on that reel will be higher. On a respin only the wins that involve the respun reel are paid. The Respin feature can be exercised any number of times in succession. However, it ceases to be valid if the betting options are changed. Also this feature is not available in the free spins bonus round.
