Lucky Drink — RTP, volatility and max win

Lucky Drink by Belatra Games moves the devil behind a bar counter: drinks, dishes and the devil fill the reels in dark browns and blacks. The game runs on just 3 paylines, and every line win can go straight into the gamble round to be doubled or lost.

The grid measures 5×3 and carries 3 paylines, far fewer than most five-reel slots. Drinks, food and the devil make up the symbols, all kept in black and brown. Bets sit between €0.15 and €22.50, and with so few lines each bet is spread over only a handful of winning chances. Lucky Drink was released on March 19, 2014.

If you like the medium volatility of Lucky Drink, comparable games sorted by level are listed under volatility of inferno slots.

Matching symbols have to fall on a single line from the 3 paylines for a payout. Because only a few lines cross the 5×3 grid, symbol position matters more than on slots with many ways. Alongside the lines sit scatter symbols and a separate bonus game, neither of them tied to a line.

Bonus game: away from the reels waits a separate bonus round with its own prizes; together with the scatters it is the route to wins outside the lines.

Gamble: after any line win you can take the amount into the double-up game. A correct call doubles it, a wrong one costs the whole win.

Wild: the wild fills in for missing symbols on a line and completes combinations that would otherwise stay open.

RTP 91.82%. Background: how RTP works on a slot. Volatility Medium, like 54 of the 180 slots in the Hell & devil theme. Background: what slot volatility means. Max win 10,000× (€225,000 at the highest stake). Background: what max win means on a slot.

Against that low return stands a biggest prize of 10,000×, which reaches past around 75% of the catalogue. Volatility is medium, and the bigger payouts come mainly from the bonus game and the gamble round.

Since the biggest prize of Lucky Drink sits well clear of most of the collection, it is worth setting it against the inferno slots ranked by max win.

Because the return of Lucky Drink is among the lowest in the catalogue, the game belongs in the comparison of the RTP of inferno slots.

In line with Lucky Drink: slots with equal medium volatility.
