Funkiest Slots on the Net! (Please give this large page time to
load!) |
|
|
|
Introduction I’ve been
playing online slots regularly since 2005 and had some great fun & super
hits! (see KKResults for some of
my best screenshots). Most of my play
has been at Crypto’s or Microgaming – undoubtedly the slickest slots in the
business! But the majority of their slots are pretty ‘samey’ and can be a bit
dull after a while. However, just
recently I discovered something a bit different at Grand Virtual casinos. For all I know they may have been around
for ages, but I hadn’t seen them before.
I soon discovered that they have some of the funkiest slots on the
internet, and that inspired me to create this page! So here I review what I consider to be the
funkiest slots, not just at GV, but at most of the other softwares I’ve
played on too. Funky =
Innovative idea, Great graphics, Great sounds, Big payouts, or all of the
above! If you know any
other funky slots, please let me know & I will consider adding them –
thanks! Click on any of
the images below for a full-size picture. (Maximise window for clearest
view). Nearly all the
shots are from my own real-money play J All of the slots
can be played in ‘fun’ demo mode – just click on one of the casino names
listed, download the free software, and off you go! (WagerWorks is no-download). Unless
otherwise stated; No real-money play from the |

What makes them
so funky? Well on most of their
slots:- |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Ø The reels don’t actually ‘spin’ – instead
a ‘curtain’ covers each position which is revealed in a semi-random order. Ø The symbols pay anywhere on the
win line, not just right to left, or left to right. Ø Some scatter symbols in view
double the regular payouts, and are accumulative (1 scatter = x2, 2 = x4, 3 =
x8…etc) Ø The scatters are also wild symbols
on some slots. Ø Unlike most other softwares, the
more scatters you get the bigger the prizes (MUCH bigger!) Ø Some of the slots have FOUR
different bonus features! |
Ø Like with Video Poker, betting max
coins and lines dramatically increases the multiplier of the top payout. Ø You can switch between real money
play & fun mode without even exiting the game, let alone the casino! Ø Your last 3 or 4 win amounts
remain visible in the info window. Ø Most software writers seem to
think they have to make an even number of win lines (eg: 20, 30 etc.), this
gives non-symmetrical patterns. GV are more sensible – here you will find 7,
9, 11, 15, 17, 21 & 27 line slots! NOTE: First time you play, the slots may not
be set to max lines! |

This was the result of a Treasure hunt round,
triggered by 4 Astrolabes on my last free spin which made for bigger
prizes. I don’t know exactly what I
found in the maze, but I literally fell off my chair when it paid out $222.32
from a 33c spin! J Jackpot: 5 Wild MerKings pay 20,000 xbet. |
◄ Atlantis ► This slot has it all! Simply the most
amazing graphics I’ve ever seen. Takes a little getting used to because the
‘reels’ are not in straight lines, and the 3D moving symbols appear floating
above each position. But it’s not just
pretty pictures, this baby has FOUR different feature rounds:- Free-spins: 5 to 25 spins for 3-5 Nautilus: Wild symbol
multiplies wins by x5, and any bonus round awards are tripled! Treasure Hunt: 3+ Astrolabes take you to a prize maze – Navigate
the Mermaid though the caves collecting prizes, monster repellent and trap
keys, avoid the Kraken & the traps until you find the exit. Obelisk: Unlock the code to reach the top of the column for
the biggest prizes. Seahorse Race: 3+ Seahorses to enter the derby – pick 3 from 6
horses and race to the finish line. With all the features, the
more scatters that trigger the round, the bigger your prizes!
|
Three or more scattered Seahorses start the derby race;
pick any 3 of the six ‘steeds’, click Go and watch them sprint for the finish
line. You can win up to 3 prizes in
each race (I got 1st & 2nd above). This is an 11-line slot. |

My boozy buddy knocked back the full 5 pints before
finally falling flat on his face. I
don’t know what made me smile more; his antics, or winning $127.68 from my
90c bet…! Jackpot: 5 Wild Crests at max coin/line = 50,000 |
A fun little slot, based on
the famous annual Prost
scatter pays up to 25x total bet for any 5 in view. 2 or more also gives one
free spin. Three or more scattered Barrels take you to the drinking
round. Keep buying your buddy beers until he flakes out! If he manages 5 pints you’re quids in! Includes very funky Lederhosen slapping music! |
I hit 4 handbags during the free spins for a mega
win which ended up returning $101.76 off a $1.26 spin. 21-lines of girly fun! Jackpot: 5 Wild Credit Cards = 25,000 x line bet. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Shopping This one may have a ‘girly’
theme, but it’s capable of manly payouts!
Also has two features:- Free Spins: 3 to 5 Lipsticks give 1 to 50x total bet and
10 to 25 spins. (Is red your colour?) Picking round: Three or more scattered Handbags starts the Fashion
Frenzy; Use the elevator & pick an accessory on every floor until you
reach your credit card’s limit. Reach 5th & all doubled! Both these scatter symbols
anywhere in view also boost ‘regular’ wins x2 for each, accumulative. |

◄ Monopoly Here & Now ► This recent addition to the
WagerWorks stable is just such great fun to play! Features include: Funky sounds: Big wins play
a fanfare, bigger wins play a great little song which goes “I’m feeling like
Mr.Lucky today!” J Super graphics: The
‘Monopoly man’ jumps round the screen, giving you property bonus cards &
throwing the dice. With this slot, the
bonus increases the longer you play, so you don’t want to hit it too often….
But you normally still hit plenty of big wins in normal play to keep you
going! Feature: Journey round the feature board collecting rent
from your properties; more houses/hotels = bigger income! Land on Free Parking for a race to grab one
of the 3 big accumulative jackpots! This is a 20-line

A ‘shoot em up’ scene from Reel Crime – blast the
targets for prizes & to advance to next section. Note: These I-slots are very low variance slots – no mega
wins here, but they are great fun and you’ll get a lot of playing time for
your money! |
◄ I-Slots (4 to choose from) These slots are unique in
that they follow a story line, with comic-book style animated scenes between
each of the rounds. When you complete each section you get a prize bonus
round before moving on, or going back to the start, depending on the outcome.
As you start each section you get the opportunity to change your stake which
is then fixed. The symbols on the reels also change as you advance. In addition they have free spins triggered
by scatter symbols. Jackpot: 5 Gangsters = 750 x bet. |
A very nice 100/1 win, but sadly not for me L (Screenshot courtesy of Tennis_Balls) |

coins at max bet of 5 coins played) |
