With Lucky 3, the well-respect game developer iSoftBet has done something very few of its competitors achieve: it has created a unique kind of slot-playing experience. The designers call this game “a traditional slot with a contemporary touch,” and the description is apt. The key is simplicity: there are only three gaming symbols, across five reels and five columns. In a gaming world replete with busy designs and seemingly endless varieties of elusive bonuses, this direct style of play is a breath of fresh air.
Theme
This game is so simply designed that the word ‘theme’ seems a stretch. A warm, purple background stands behind the reels, a brief description of payouts and jackpot is found to their left. The blue and red watermelon slice, red and yellow lemon, and green and red cherry are the game’s only symbols, so you’ll be seeing a lot of them. The soundtrack is reminiscent of arcade games from the 1970s and ’80s, with upbeat synthesizers punctuating wins and spins.
Betting Options and Features
In keeping with the clean design and play of Lucky 3, there are only a few adjustable user options: total bet size, auto spin, and the spin button itself, all found below the reels. A more detailed pay table is also available in pop-up. There are no wild or scatter symbols in this game. Where other games offer free spins and bonuses, Lucky 3 has only a great variety of payouts for the various paylines: a win in each line has a different multiplicative bonus, with the lowest line quintupling the bet size.
There is also a jackpot to be won, which is this game’s only real special win feature. Should all five reels reveal a lemon in the fifth line, the payout is a staggering 500 times the minimum coin denomination. Other ways to win have smaller (though still significant) multipliers, however. The result is a game that strips away the ornate, occasionally confusing paylines and bonuses of other online slots. Instead, it presents uncluttered gameplay that is in no way less lucrative than its competitors.
Our take
iSoftBet’s corporate motto is “Simply Play,” and this game certainly lives up to that standard. An old-school approach to design, an abundance of paylines, multipliers, and rock-solid gameplay make this slot worthy of serious attention, no matter how simple its presentation.
