Different Ways to Win With Mac Compatible Online Slot

In my last article “Different Types of Payouts For Online Slots For Macs” I discussed how differently the 4 categories of slots pay you back your money. Most slot games pay back 96 to 98%. The interesting thing is that they do this in a variety of ways. This is more obvious comparing different categories.

* Interactive Slots
* Jackpot Slots
* Simple multi-line Slots
* One Line Slots

For instance a Jackpot slot game accumulates and pays you back a lot latter and a lot bigger than with small wins for matching symbols. In fact it most probably will not get back to you at all. It will land in the lap of some dumbo you don’t even know. While an interactive slot game will pay you (I said YOU) with a large bonus for winning in some sort of interaction, be it killing an Ork or winning a Derby.

Let us take two games that are in the same category, the same type. The two simple slot games The Super Eighties and Reel Steal are both the same type. Yet they give the winnings back to the player in a very different way. Almost as differently as between different Type slots.

SUPER EIGHTIE’S online slot game

5-reel, 4-row
5- bet levels
40-line
wild symbols
scatter symbols
free bonus spins
3 scatter symbols activate 5 Free spins.
Free spins pay win x2

REEL STEAL online slot game

5-reel, 3-row
10-bet levels
9-line
free spins (15 or more)
scatter & wild symbols
free dynamite at Joe’s place
3 scatters starts 15 Free spins.
Free spin mode pays X5
Free spin wins in combination with a Wild symbol pay twenty five times coin.
Every scatter symbol showing during Free spin mode wins 1 more Free spin.
Wild Symbol pays coin win X5
Free spin mode in combination with a Wild symbol pays X25

OK, so those are the specs. Neither have an interactive mode nor a Jackpot. Both are 5 reel, multi payline slots. This places them in the “Simple Type” of online slot game. But the way they payout is very distinct from each other. Now stay with me and look at the specs as you are reading. Super Eighties gives us very little to work with (in a matter of speaking) I don’t mean this to be derogatory . My point is that it gives you 5 free spins with a multiplier of 2. Nothing more. While Reel Steal gives 15 free spins with a multiplier of 5. Then this slot game goes on to give a free spin with a scatter in the free spin modes AND pays out 25X with a wild showing in the free spin mode. If that is not enough Reel Steal pays out 5X on wilds by themselves on an active bet line. It sounds strange if you compare them. You ask yourself if both slots pay out equally . The answer is yes, of coarse. They must. They have been designed properly by very educated engineers with mega gigs of computer power behind them. And they have been monitored for years making sure they do. So what is going on?

The answer is that Super Eighties shows a ton of wilds. I have seen solid wild symbols covering practically the whole board in Super Eighties. It pays out constantly and a lot of it. I must admit Reel Steal is a dream when you are in the groove and inside the free spine mode with 15 free-bees behind you. The wilds hit and wow! 25 times win can come again and again inside the free spins giving you thousands (THOUSADNDS) of Yet Super Eighties can catch up to this payout with constant little Winnies. Reel Steal wins come in much larger chunks. But what I like about it is that it always gives it back. A progressive Jackpot slot will chip away at you leaving you perhaps a bit dry at the end of the session. It needs to accumulate money for the big payout. Not so with these two little gems. Yet these two little gems are different from each other indeed. Remember if you want to try out these two online slot games on a Mac they are all mac compatible. But you don’t need to have a Mac to play at Mac casinos. With a PC you can enter any Flash Casino and play no download slot games. It is the Mac users that need to be careful. We can only play at no download casinos.
