But will you end up with a birdie or a bogey? Here’s a review of Lucky Swing by Oryx with all the facts you need to know.

Immaculate Greens

Oryx have created a reputation for developing games which have sensational graphics and any gold club in the world would be proud of greens like this.

With every blade of grass a beautiful lush green and the bunkers immaculately groomed, the attention to detail on the imagery is nothing short of impressive.

As always, there’s an entertaining animated sequence to introduce the game where you meet the main players which feature on the reels. Once you’re in the main game, the reels are set in the middle of the flawless golf course giving you the opportunity to focus your mind with no other golfers in sight.

On the reels, the three golfers – Charming Lucy, Rich Mike and Wise Jack – take centre stage along with golfing paraphernalia such as balls, tees, clubs and bags.

So with your bag packed, are you ready to tee off?

Marking Your Card

Any golfer knows that it’s a cardinal sin not to mark your card as you go round the course, so when it comes to the reels it’s a good idea to take a similarly diligent approach.

Before you get ready to take your turn, you’ll need to set up your stake so that it doesn’t blow your budget before you start.

The game is played on 5 reels with just 5 paylines available. Even though there’s relatively few paylines, you still have the option of reducing it further by using the buttons on the control panel. The fewer paylines in play the lower your chances of winning so it’s essential to get your strategy right.

You’ll also be able to stipulate how many coins you want to play with per line, with between one and five available. The value of each coin can be set between 0.01 and 0.50, providing lots of versatility for both low and high betters.

If you’re not quite sure how to bet, taking a look at the paytable might help you to make up your mind.

The higher value symbols pay out for matching just two while the lower value symbols only pay out for a match of three or more. The golfing trophy, the Silver Cup, is the top prize paying out a win of 3,000 for matching five symbols.

Take a Shot

If you’ve ever dreamt of shooting a hole in one, here’s your big chance in the special Lucky Shot Bonus Feature.

To unlock the hidden game you’ll need to land three or more Lucky Club symbols anywhere on the board.

Once you’ve stepped onto the fairway, you’ll need to choose the club you think will bring you the best luck before taking your shot. Keep your fingers crossed that the mischievous gopher doesn’t pop out of the ground and that the wind is on your side and you might just score that elusive hole in one! If you do, you’ll not only receive a boost to your self-confidence, but you’ll also win a special prize.

If you landed four Lucky Club symbols to unlock the bonus game, you’ll have your wins multiplied by five, and if you landed five Lucky Club symbols, your win will be multiplied by 10.

The Lucky Club symbols can help you again if they appear on three or more consecutive reels starting with the left hand side. This provides you with access to the Free Spins feature where you could win up to 10 free turns. During the free spins, you can retrigger an additional 10 free spins so the bonus can prove to be very valuable indeed.

For players willing to take a little risk the gamble feature offers a way of winning a bigger prize. Every time you land a regular win you can opt to gamble for the chance of doubling your money. But in this simple game of chance if you bet the wrong way, you’ll lose everything so it’s not for the faint of heart.

Get on the Green

Lucky Swing by Oryx is a golfer’s dream, giving the chance to enjoy a swing or two while still playing the reels to win cash prizes.
