We decided to devote a separate chapter to classic online slots, that is, those games that, despite competition from more modern products, continue to be among the most played. These are timeless hits, characterized by that special touch that makes them preferable to more sophisticated and technological alternatives. Here are what are the most popular real money slots in New Zealand, among the older ones.
Book of Ra, a timeless slot machine
Call it Book of Ra, call it a book slot, it changes little: Novomatic’s game has achieved worldwide fame. It is one of the best most played online reel machines ever (and also among the most emulated!), although graphics and sound are perhaps a bit dated. It chronicles the adventures of a researcher, hunting for Pharaoh’s treasure.
With its 5 reels, 9 paylines and symbols of Egyptian deities, the scarab, and — of course — the scatter, this slot also includes free spin and multiplier rounds. The RTP reaches over 96%, while minimum bets are as low as €0.01 and maximum bets are €3.
Sizzling Hot, the Novomatic-branded classic.
Another Novomatic hit among AAMS-licensed casinos, as well as one of the best Android real money slots around, is Sizzling Hot. This title has been the subject of numerous variants, starting with the improved Deluxe version, moving on to Sizzling Gems (featuring magnificent gemstones) and many other online slots with high return-to-player values. In this case, in fact, the RTP is about 95%.
Like most Novomatic products, the reason for the success of this online slot machine is a perfect mix of volatility and possible payouts. In addition, it is a slot suitable for everyone, thanks to the low bet limits. Today not many slot sites offer the original Sizzling Hot, but you can still find many equally enjoyable alternatives, such as BF Games’ Stunning Hot.
Alternative: Stunning Hot from BF Games.
5 reels, 3 rows of symbols, 5 fixed paylines, classic fruit symbols and a very similar name: Stunning Hot is reminiscent of Novomatic’s famous title. The two games are very, very similar and two undisputed stars of online slot sites. The payout percentage is even higher (96.00%) than that of the Deluxe version of Sizzling Hot (which stops at 95.66%).
Currently, not many ADM-licensed online casinos offer games from small developers, such as BF Games. However, as casinos continually update their catalogs, Stunning Hot might find more space, given the undisputed quality of the game equal to that of the best online sot machines.
Triple Chance, top winnings thanks to respins
The Triple Chance online slot machine is produced by Merkur and owes its popularity to the simplicity of its gameplay. The slot has only 3 reels and 5 paylines, which is why it is a quick and easy game. When you get a winning combination, you will have special features to increase the amount cashed out.
When 9 equal symbols appear on the screen, in addition to a particularly high payout, the respin function is also activated, which allows you to multiply up to 3 times the amount won. The return-to-player value of this classic slot is quite high: about 95 percent.
Take 5 by Gamomat
A real-money online alternative to the Triple Chance online slot machine is Take 5, similar in number of reels (3) and paylines (5) and the ability to multiply winnings in the “gamble” feature. The respin feature (Win Repeater) includes a multiplier of up to 4x. The slot, developed by Gamomat, has a considerable RTP of over 96%.
Take 5, as well as Triple Chance, is part of the category of casino slots known as “fruit slots”: the symbols are precisely cherries, lemons, watermelons, oranges, and so on. Other famous fruit slots include iSoftBet’s classic titles Neon Reels and Cherry Trio, or NetEnt’s Twin Spin.
