Roll the Bones Slot Machine
Meet Mr. Lucky, the quirky character that stars in Bally Gaming’s newest slot machine dubbed “Roll the Bones”. The game was initially released during the annual 2013 G2E Expo and is quite different from the traditional slots that Bally produces. This slot machine is available throughout most of Las Vegas, Atlantic City and is quickly becoming a hit. The slot machine features stacked wilds, three progressive jackpots and two bonus features. In addition to spectacular Halloween graphics, Roll the Bonus slot is delivered using Bally's revolutionary V22/32 cabinet, the same system used for NASCAR and the MJ slot machines.
The Roll the Bones slot machine is suitable for penny slot machine playersin addition to high rollers alike. The game includes three progressive jackpots, a “Major”, “Minor” and “Mega”, which is available to players who play max bet. Don’t be scared off by the words max bet, as the highest wager available to penny players is just $2 a spin. The progressive is available to be won only while playing the U-Roll bonus game.
How to Trigger the Free Spins Bonus Round
Roll the Bones is one of those free casino slots that can offer an endless supply of free spins, however you’ll need to trigger the feature first. To do so, look for the rolling die icons located in the bottom right hand corner of select symbols. Once you hit three or more symbols, the top screen will announce the bonus feature at which point you are guaranteed five free spins.
During the bonus round, each win initiates the dice roll feature. This feature shows the ghoulish skeleton, Mr. Lucky shooting the dice like you would in a game of craps. You will continue to receive a free spin until Mr. Lucky rolls the unlucky 7.
Some of the additional perks in this particular slots machine are the multipliers. During this feature, you will receive a base multiplier of 2x your initial bet. Each time Mr. Lucky rolls “doubles”, you a 1x will be added to your count. Players can win as much as 5x their initial bet.
U-Roll Bonus Feature
The Roll the Bones slots machine comes with a brand new feature from Bally Gaming called U-Roll. If you’re a fan of Bally, you will have surely played some of the U-Spin games. These games take the excitement one step further by allowing the player to interact within the game. U-Roll works on the same premise. You touch the screen to activate the bonus and in this case you’re rolling the dice.
To trigger the U-Roll feature you will need to hit two or more 6’s on the dice (a combination of 12), during the free games round. Once triggered, a haunted house appears in the top screen which features multiple doors. Each door displays a number which will match the combination of the roll and below the number will be the multiplier you earn. The game will signal you to roll the dice. To do this, touch the screen and slide the dice upwards, similar to playing a game on your iPad.
The result of the roll will open a door matching the number. An eerie fog will emerge from the opened door and the number of credits you will appear on the screen.
Each time you roll doubles, you will progress to a different level within the game. In total there are three levels to move through, however players should note that each level awards more credits than another. For example, level 3, which is the base game, can award up to 500 credits, level two can award 2500 and level 1 can award up to 25,000.
When your rolls are up, the top screen will change to a cemetery and the total amount won during the Roll the Bones bonus feature will be displayed.
During regular game play, certain symbols have a rolling die symbol located in the bottom right hand corner. If you land two die symbols in a regular spin, the dice will roll up to the top screen and rolled again. If you land doubles, the reel that matches the dice will turn into a stacked wild. A side bonus to this feature is the main character “Mr. Lucky” can offer a multiple to the wild reel. The multiplier varies from 2x or 3x your initial wager.
