lucky neko slot theme, stakes, pays & symbols

I think if you had to pick just one genre that game developers used above all others to symbolise good luck in their online slots, it would have to be Irish. Even a provider such as PG Soft that predominantly creates their slots for the Asian market has dabbled in the Irish theme before, with their slot Leprechaun Riches being surprisingly popular in the Orient. Actually, when you look at their slots portfolio, they seem to enjoy basing games around luck, with Lucky Piggy another title worth checking out when you get the chance. Back to today's review then, and it's the turn on Neko, which is the Japanese word for a cat to undergo a slot transformation. So let's see what it has to offer.

The first stop, as always, is the paytable, and at the top of the pile, we have Neko, who pays 8x the bet for a six of a kind win. Next is the drum worth 5x for all six on a payline, followed by the lucky charm worth 4x if all six connect. Completing the higher value symbols are the fan at 3x bet for a completed payline, and finally, the salmon and sushi, both worth 1.5x for a six of a kind hit. Moving to the lower value pays, we have the royal symbols, with the ace and king both worth 1x for a line of six, whilst the Q, J, and 10 all pay 0.4x for a six of a kind. There is a wild symbol to look out for, represented by the giant gong. This has no monetary value but will substitute for all regular symbols within the game.

PG Soft tends to stick to the same betting range across all of their slots, so the minimum stake to play Lucky Neko is €0.20, with the maximum bet reaching €20. This may be considered not quite big enough for some high rollers, but for most players, it will be more than enough.

base game & modifiers

The gameplay on Lucky Neko is set across a 6x5 reel set, where due to the mechanics of the game, up to 32,400 ways to win can be generated on any spin. Forming a winning combination over this format will require players to land a minimum of 3 matching symbols on adjacent reels, with the win also needing to start from the leftmost reel first. If you're familiar with Megaways slots, you'll soon understand how this slot operates.

lucky neko slot bonus features

Landing 4 scatter symbols in view during the base game on Lucky Neko will trigger the main bonus feature, and award 10 free spins, with each additional scatter that lands after that adding a further 2 spins to the starting total. You can be forgiven for thinking this bonus will play out with an ascending multiplier each time you hit a win, as it is built in that style. However, things work a little differently, as explained below.
